    Hydraulic master cylinder size for hydraulic throw out bearing for T-56 Magnum

    I tried a 7/8 and it was way too on/off. The 13/16 is what came in the original kit I bought and it works well, though the difference between it and 3/4 is very small. Effort is not hight at all, the smaller bore will take some of that away. Mine acts very much like an OE pedal for enagement...

    Hydraulic master cylinder size for hydraulic throw out bearing for T-56 Magnum

    13/16" bore is what you want. You'll need to modify the pedal for 6:1 as I covered here: T56 Magnum Conversion Use a hydraulic throwout bearing for a 2002 Camaro with the 5.7 LS1 and buy one of the multi thickness spacer kits and the adapters to convert it to AN fittings and you'll be really...

    Classic auto air install 1970 Duster with 340 and Edebrock Super Victor EFI Manifold

    Work has been slow due to needing to winterize everything around here, the holidays, and just generally being cold. I did get everything connected under the hood for the heatercore and the wiring done. The Heat did work well when I was bleeding the cooling system. I looked under the dash...

    Classic auto air install 1970 Duster with 340 and Edebrock Super Victor EFI Manifold

    Continuing work: I pulled down the A/C side using my Harbor Freight Pittsburgh A/C gauges and air driven vaccum "pump" (which is from Amazon but HF sells the same one). It held overnight so I should have a decent seal. New eBay 2" overflow tank hung on the back of the radiator. I...

    A855 - 5 Speed

    People should just no longer buy them, it's that easy. The Tremec T56 Magnum swap has been done enough times now -> just forget about ever returning the car to stock (you're not going to anyway), do the ToddRon crossmember and the T56 Magnum, proven stuff, liberty can face plate it, whatever...

    Rear disc proportioning valve

    You need a secure bracket at the hose/steel line joint. Otherwise, over time it will break.

    Classic auto air install 1970 Duster with 340 and Edebrock Super Victor EFI Manifold

    Thanks, I'll get in touch. I am basically wanting to duplicate the original but have correct lettering for the new pattern that they have. If not, my friend had already ordered a 3D scanner and we're going to work from there.

    Classic auto air install 1970 Duster with 340 and Edebrock Super Victor EFI Manifold

    Today's update: Cap is on but the holes that were behind the original stiffening plate don't line up. The bottom heater hose has just barely enough room to get a clamp on it but it will work. It's slightly cheesy but it will work. I will also have to relocate the ground for the wiper motor...

    Classic auto air install 1970 Duster with 340 and Edebrock Super Victor EFI Manifold

    Bouchillon Performance makes all the bracketry for the engine, the rep from Classic Auto Air told me as much. 3/4 wasn't so bad with the basically race manifold with EFI that I have here. I do have quite a lot of time in it already, probably 14-16 hrs including removing all the old parts and...

    Classic auto air install 1970 Duster with 340 and Edebrock Super Victor EFI Manifold

    Now to get on to the interior part of it, after removing all the original heater box and the controls, you get to modify the control plates You'll find it goes OK until you do the hot/cold blend and find that the wire for the control is about 3/4" too long. I shortened it. When it gets at...

    Classic auto air install 1970 Duster with 340 and Edebrock Super Victor EFI Manifold

    The add-on pulley is a bit strange with only the 3 bolts and having 3 bolts behind it. Finished home made bracket. Installed pipes and reciever/drier. You have to drill holes for it but they provide nuts and bolts, I had to add my own washers on the rubber isolators Pressure switch isn't...

    Classic auto air install 1970 Duster with 340 and Edebrock Super Victor EFI Manifold

    Hello All, I did end up ordering the kit from classic auto air with the 26-302 kit with the add-on pulley. The car has a 340 with Edelbrock heads and an Edelbrock Super Victor EFI intake, power steering, and otherwise the stock 1970 318 Non-A/C pulleys. I did also have to re-seal the timing...

    Classic Auto Air Bracket kits on Small Blocks? Need photos

    I did buy the kit with the add-on pulley, and it arrived today. I did a quick test fit on the main bracket and the compressor to see if it would work with my Super Victor EFI intake, and it will clear to get the compressor on, but I will have to do some things differently. Somehow the kit was...

    SB standard or billet starter ?

    I broke one by not having the cover in place. Once I put the plate in, I never had another problem.

    Borgeson Power Steering Pump

    I did a banjo on my friend's 71 Demon with the M-body brackets, all we did was use my AN flaring tool and flare a line. Mine has all AN lines, but the same fitting. I did have to trim the k-frame, but this was before there was really anything else available

    does Stabil work?

    See, this is the thing, its way overblown on that, I don't know how many cars are stored outside with snow on them, or how close you are to the ocean, but it's damp here in Michigan a lot of the year, and you have to let it sit a long time to even get enough water in there to matter. The other...

    My "new" '74 Duster- or why I need a project like a hole in the head

    I kind of wanted to do 2 things simulatenously if I did that - get some opposed piston calipers, but keep the 330mm rotor size so my spare will fit, and not spend a ton of money. The craziest calipers that fit this are for an 04-10 VW Toureg or Porsche Cayenne, the 17Z versions are made for a...

    '69 Barracuda T56 swap, floor, cross member

    spacing down the k-frame is going to play havoc on a bunch of things such as: -Camber curve -Steering column to box alignment -torsion bar alignment (you may also be putting them into bending) -extra stress on LCA bushings which are already a weak point on theser cars The floor is already...

    '69 Barracuda T56 swap, floor, cross member

    I would mod the floor and the HVAC box over messing with the K-frame. I think you'll get it no problem that way.

    does Stabil work?

    Ethanol absorbs water anyway, do you want 3 gallons of gas with water in it or 18? I have personally done this for 20 years and my dad did the same with his 1983 Mustang 5.0 he had for an additional 10 past that. They'll run in the spring and then you have fresh gas right away because you go...

    Keeprite NG furnace code "fail to ignite"

    If it never lights at all, I'm betting on the gas valve myself. Still a possibility it's the pressure switch depending on how good the diagnostics are, but I really doubt it. Also check the flame sensor for being open just to be sure. It should be somewhat like inducer or powered exhaust turns...

    does Stabil work?

    This is the only actual test: Short answer is if it does anything, its not much. This is after 19 months, now, they started it every month. I believe there is an even later one where only the VP non ethanol fuel works. You're storing your car over the winter, don't worry about it. As for...

    My "new" '74 Duster- or why I need a project like a hole in the head

    Well you'll get that, honestly, I still really recommend running the "LS" coils, even though I know the look isn't for everyone. Been 8 years for me already with 0 problems. Even if a coil dies, you're still going home, and they have built-in ignitors so you can't burn the computer up. For the...

    My "new" '74 Duster- or why I need a project like a hole in the head

    At least I'll be looking better than the Questionable Garage / Jared Pink Duster even with my 20/20 paint job. At least I won't get upset if the paint gets chipped...There was also another Patina Duster but I liked that one better than Jared's, even though what they did was pretty cool. I did...

    My "new" '74 Duster- or why I need a project like a hole in the head

    The EFI even on the 340 would seriously tone down any driveability issues and should help the fuel mileage. I got about 2 mpg with the EFI and an additional 2 with the T56 Magnum. I didn't even get remotely agressive at tuning mine for fuel mileage, I rarely drive for more than 1/2 hr at a...

    Good idea to have a baffled oil pan?

    I've been using a Kevko pan (even though they look homemade on the outside), with trapdoor and baffles and I have solid oil pressure always. With the stock pan on the old engine I could get a pretty severe oil pressure drop when braking hard. Depends on how you use the car but for braking and...
