    Fusible link ????

    I moved the battery to trunk on a friends 73 Dart Sport. We need to replace the fusible link. How long does the fusible link wire need to be? He bought 12 gauge wire too.

    Coolant flow

    So as to not keep adding to the other way too long thread I will post some fact based, proven links to coolant flow. Here is one of them. Doesn't coolant need more time in the radiator to cool?

    Opening a PM

    How do you open a PM that was read but I didn’t have time to respond to? I can’t open any PM that I’ve already read. I used to be able to do it. RB

    VFD

    I need VFD for my lathe. I’m looking at a 3 HP 10A model. Is that going to be enough for a 2 HP lathe as far as the amps go? I know less than nothing about these infernal VFD’s but I have to have one. I don’t want to buy two of them so I need to get the right one the first time. TIA

    73 Duster wiring &#% show

    73 Duster, factory column shift automatic with factory cruise control. Went to a floor shifter and changed the column over to standard. Now there are issues. When the battery is hooked up, the rear blinkers blink. But not the front. When you step on the brake, they work like normal. When you...

    Headers

    There is some real confusion about headers. So I’m going to post the actual FACTS about Hooker headers and part numbers. There is no reason for anyone to reply to the thread. I post it only for educational purposes. Here is a picture of the November 1983 HOOKER catalog. You can’t get a better...

    Two men’s opinions

    On ethanol based fuels. If you scroll down and read the comments you will see a staunch defender of ethanol. I will download and read his book. I think ALL pump fuel should be 25-30% ethanol. It will reduce emissions, allow higher compression ratios and won’t require too much of a tune up...

    Killer Carbide Review UPDATE WITH VIDEO

    I grabbed the short burr as an example of what I’m used to using to quickly get rid of materiel. On the right is a Killer Carbide. The top picture is the three KC’s I bought. I put in about 2 hours on the grinder tonight and the KC burr is far and away better than the other style. It will remove...

    Going to try these

    These just showed up at the door. They look better in person than they do in pictures. Very nice stuff if they grind half as good as they look. You can find this guy of Facebook at killer carbide burrs.

    Email change

    I tried to change my email to a new email account so all my FABO stuff is one email. When I try to do the change it says I have insufficient privileges to post. So I had to go back to my old email. Can this be fixed?
