    Back up light switch adjustment

    Ok, it's on my friend's 63 three on the tree, but I see the switch mounts the same as a four speed, and saw an old thread on this, with no definite conclusion reached. Reverse engages just fine, but to make the lights work he has to pull up on the handle. The internal lever doesn't seem to touch...

    63 Valiant seat belt mountings

    I looked for existing threads first but couldn't find this info. I'm doing some general repairs on my friend's very rusty Valiant. Next is seat belts. He had a shop install some years ago, but they just drilled a hole through the floor, put in a big washer, and that's all. Now, on the driver's...

    [WANTED] 9 inch drum front hubs

    Call me crazy, but I can't afford to do anything but keep my 9 inch drum brakes on my 72 Dart. I've spun the outer race on a few hubs, and last time I had one sleeved. Anybody got 9 inch junk hubs and or front drums with small pattern?

    Anyone ever run crankcase at vacuum?

    About 15 years ago, had a 68 truck 225 with forged crank built up to replace a trashed engine in a 65 Dart GT. Used a factory two barrel intake, and a carb from a 273. Idle was a bit too lean, no matter what, so I tried sealing the breather cap, pulling a vacuum on the crankcase with the PCV...
