My brother sent this to me via e-mail. He is an aeronautical engineer. For those who love numbers, engineers, speed freaks and those who think they have gone too fast at one time or another. This puts Corvette performance in perspective. This article mentions Lingenfelter twin turbo powered...

A question was raised in the Body & Interior section regarding reduced radio reception when using a fiberglass hood. I remember something I heard in the distant past about AM radio needing the steel hood for improving "ground wave" reception. With that in mind, I am considering moving my...

This might seem dopey to most of you, but I have never dealt with air conditioning in an old muscle car (or any other car for that matter). I am preparing to pull the 318 from my '68 'Cuda. It has factory air conditioning. Upon reassembly, I plan to use a more modern air conditioner with a...

I have done a number of internet searches for wiring with the original colors and tracers that Mopars had from the factory. I have found nothing, but pre-made wire kits ($$$) and generic wires with basic colors. Because I will be modifying the wiring of my '68 'Cuda on assembly, I have been...

One thing that has always bothered me about automotive gas tanks and gages is the innacuracy concerning actual volume in the tanks. I know that the tanks are made to fit into various locations, thus having unusual shapes. The standard float sending units cannot differentiate between wide and...

Rich Ehrenberg wrote an article about this new device in the Dec 2011 issue of MOPAR ACTION. He installed the prototype on the Project Savoy car. It is supposed to drastically reduce (or eliminate) K-frame flexing due to the long pittman arm drop. It makes sense to me...

Her Diary: Tonight, I thought my husband was acting weird. We had made plans to meet at a restaurant for dinner. I was shopping with my friends all day. I thought he was upset at the fact that I was a bit late, but he made no comment on it. Conversation wasn't flowing, so I suggested that we go...

I know that the factory "H-pipes" were a great improvement over separate dual exhaust pipes. New data seem to indicate that "X-pipes" are an improvement over "H-pipes." However, are these pipes of any benefit over headers with only open headers and mufflers? Do they provide benefit only with...

Have any of you guys used, or considered using, MIL-SPEC type cannon bulkhead connectors to replace the factory unit? They come with O-rings and are weather-proof. I am seriously considering replacing my factory unit with something like this.

Two families moved from Pakistan to America. When they arrived, the two fathers made a bet - in a year's time whichever family had become more American would win. A year later they met again. The first man said, "My son is playing baseball, I had McDonalds for breakfast, and I'm on my way to...

OK, I know that there is nothing that will truly prevent theft of your vehicle, other than a 24-hour armed guard. I guess the best we can do is slow down the thief or make a big noise to scare him away. I have heard of scummers cruising motel parking lots along interstates with tow trucks...

The Christmas Parrot One Christmas Eve, a frenzied young man ran into a pet shop looking for an unusual Christmas gift for his wife. The shop owner suggested a parrot, named Chet, which could sing famous Christmas carols. This seemed like the perfect gift. "How do I get him to sing?" The young...

Greetings, Gents, This is mainly for DonnieLawson, but is also for general knowledge. The headliner appears original; it disintegrated during removal just like a 43 year old headliner. The previous owner even had a section held together with safety pins. The rod end listed as "purple" is...
