I was just in there yesterday talking to Richie. The transmission was completed and all pretty on the bench.

I remember last time I bought a set of studs they weren't quite large enough. I'm not near my calipers or an axle to measure but want to order ASAP. I was thinking .685 for some reason... Anyone have a good answer? It is a 69 B body axle.

Another hiccup I found. The calipers I set back to rebuild were from a 75 Dart. Both calipers had stuck pistons. One was phenolic and the other steel. Apparently they were late production because they were the 2.75 piston models. I already had the parts to build the 2.59 piston models so now I...

Aspen / Volare spindles will also work. The ones on my 68 Dart are actually from an 85 5th Avenue Chrysler. I had to use 74 Duster big ball joint control arms though.

If you require that much volume it would seem the rear brakes are too far off the drum. Disc brakes ride the rotor so that is not where your volume is required. If the rod is not the correct length of the MC is not spaced properly you may not be allowing the MC to draw fluid. That is where the...

Yes but those calipers are of a different design. That is why I specifically mentioned the A, F and M bodies. They use the same pads which mean the calipers interchange on the spindles for an easy swap. If you pull up the 10-1571 in the PDF it shows 15/16 as the bore and it is the factory MC for...

That is unusual. The factory 10-1571 is a 15/16 bore. My pedal moves a little further down but well off the floor and stops where I want it now.

First off let me give you the link to this super handy PDF master cylinder identification catalog from Cardone that has pictures, bore diameter and fitting specs. It is a little over 21MB so it takes a second or ten to download. The master cylinder I use on my cars in place of the 10-1571 is...

Thanks for all the interest and feedback! This installs in just a few minutes and is plug and play. No wire cutting or splicing on original Hideaway cars. Save your OEM setup for the shows and swap this back on for your daily driving. The hardest part is drilling the 1/4" hole in the bumper...

This is an easy install and a reliable replacement for the fragile and troublesome worm drive motors. Only one 1/4" hole has to be drilled for the bottom bracket. The system is a power off close so a single SPST switch can be used if your car was not an original hideaway car or the Mopar relay...

Sounds like there was some issue with the ballast start bypass....

I know this is more of a B and C body thing but FABO has the MOST members and viewers...(I did post on the B body site) Tired of replacing gear sets, buzzing relays and expensive hard to find motors? I sure as hell am. I am finishing up a kit that uses a linear actuator to replace that darn...

I recently was asked to make a vehicle run properly. It had some carb issues but also a serious ignition problem as well. Check your ROTOR PHASING! It seems to be vacuum advance models with this particular problem. Apparently at least some of these are assembled with the wrong parts. The...

I used early upper and intermediate linkages with the adjustable later model lower rod and found it to be a good setup.

The reverse lever is in the case not the cover..... ;)

I am working on a friends 68 Barracuda with a Jegs 408 magum with a 274/474 cam. It sounds pretty salty but is an under performer. It been to a couple of shops and they haven't figured it out. Aside from it having a loud rattle in the heads, to get it to run decent the timing shows 45 degrees...

Hit it with a hammer several times and work it both directions.

My 71 Demon 440 ran hot with the lower temp thermostats but improved greatly with the 195 degree thermostat. At speed heating can be an aerodynamic issue or lack of the rubber hood seal over the core support allowing air to bypass the radiator.

Welcome!

Does the kick down (throttle pressure) linkage have any spring to it at all when you push back on it? Is it getting any travel from the carb?

Or get the standard one port and use one of these on the other line.....

$20 Kinter unit for a motorcycle takes SD or flash drive and has a tuner. I soldered a standard antenna socket into mine and ran an antenna in the A pillar moulding.

That is great! What headers do you have?

You say it feels like you are taking of in second... Do you actually feel it shift to all gears?

9/16 deep impact socket usually fits.....

Black Max? I have a friend that uses it to mount sights on high powered rifles and they have yet to come off.....

452 is not a closed chamber head. Any good 750 will feed that engine well. Remember you have a shorter stroke than most brand X small blocks so it will want to wind up!

Torker2 will probably deliver the most in the power band.... right with the Weiand though. Better have some converter though or you'll wish you had a dual plane.

Dog food can lid material under the gasket on the head side and you are good.
