    Looking for high quality wire and connector brands.

    Earlier this year, a friend and I started our own side business where we mainly rewire classic cars. When I started wiring; the cars I was doing were just basic drivers with almost no accessories and I could use what came in the wiring harness box and nothing extra. However, I am now working on...

    I put it into gear and it dies.

    So I recently swapped in a 318 with a 904 into my 1970 duster. What is weird about it is that it fires up and idles at around 8-900 rpm and revs out and runs good in park. Whenever I put it in any gear, it dies almost immediately. It shifts pretty hard into gear and makes the car lurch a little...

    New Swap, Not Charging

    So I just swapped out my slant 6 in my 1970 Duster for a 1973 318. The engine runs fine, there is no problems in the electrical system other than the alternator does not charge and sometimes the key does not do anything but click. (that is an isolated problem because it did that before the swap...

    Stock 318 2 Barrel Cam Choice

    So I recently bought a bone stock '73 318 2 barrel. Since it is going to need to beat up on some stock mustangs from my high school, I am going to do a cam swap and put on a '71 340 4 barrel intake I got with the engine. My question is; since I am only changing the cam and intake, what cam...

    My all original unmolested car may not be so original...

    So I was doing motor mounts today and when I pulled the broken one out, I noticed that it was completely different from the one 225 slant motor mount I bought. My theory is at one point, the original 225 was blown up and the previous owners could not afford another 225 so they bought a crappy...

    Battle Of The Cams.

Now, there are many Cams and Cam manufacturers that produce all sorts of cool and fun camshafts, but for all sorts of specific engine combination and applications...

    The Cheapest Possible Collective A-Body Build

    I decided to create this thread based off a suggestion from @Murray. After seeing all of those "budget" builds in Hot Rod, Car Craft, and all over the internet I decided that these are not REAL budget builds. All of those guys have enough money to buy name brand parts and new tires. What we're...

    Bench Seat Reupholstery

    So, I bought a 70' duster and it has the original rear seats and what looks like a c-body front bench seat. What I am trying to figure out is if anyone has some cheap home-upholstery tips or easy ways to fix the seat without using seat covers or a band aid fix. Cheap as in $50-$150. *all the...
