    Not much of a story. That's the size the fits the anchor pins and and so I was using it, until it spun. I'd be there now but told the neighbors Id help be the 'new' person with their dog trainer to get him used to people. After lunch took a call from a blacksmith who can make some htings for...

    Read the tips on using the windage screen. Basically its best to open them up a bit - add another pair or two of louvers. Let us know how the intake valley splash pan fits. The one in my current 340 took some fitting but I cant recall if its a Milidon or Moroso

    Nice! I'm off to play some v-ball. I was able to put together a circuit schematic of what your 64 probably started with using some 63 and 65 info. It probably would be easiest to stop by and see what you have in hand. Then figure out how to blend the old with the new in terms actually making...

    :rofl: I dunno! Someone told 'em was not only a good idea, but would be an upgrade. Well actually they read it in a magazine or saw it on the internet facebook? Youtube? :lol: OK. Here's a related question. Why do people buy a wire kit, or an ignition, or really anything from a well known...

    Apparently that's the deal. Sentences are typically reduced or in this case changed when the guilty returns X amount.

    looks nice in the photo but see if you can find something that protects the connections, and supports the bundled cable. I've seen a few posted here in the past. (here=FABO not coffee thread specificly)

    Never heard of either one! LOL. Gimme some Bonnie Rait, Lucinda Williams or who was that gal that had a hit a couple years ago - I'll think of her name later. I'm doing OK. Too much desk time this week. Still need to work on the jeep's brakes. Wanted to get to the range this evening but...

    Starrett got bought out?

    Even in 2019 this is what LI Indicator Repair had to say about Starrett's Dial and Digital Calipers. http://web.archive.org/web/20190228043548/https://longislandindicator.com/p11.html The lengthy website has been revamped but does have info on the more current Starrett test indicators. Some...

    Be drinving along on the interstate and let up on the throttle to exit and it would sometimes flood. Part of that was the mechanical pump's spring. But just an example of the type of flooding that would be me in the ***. Then I'd open the fuel level sight plug and drain some fuel onto a rag.

    Try to tip it so the outlet will let vapor to push past the inlet valve first. I think on my Baracuda its more like 35-40 degrees but thats the idea. Also if the vapor gets so hot that it develops enough pressure to force open the inlet valve, it won't push as much fuel into the bowl. I...

    Factory fuel filter locations are located in a relatively cool spot with the outlet higher than the inlet. If you can't use that, what I've done is buy steel line that's already flared for the fuel pump connection. Rebend, and or cut and attach steel line with compression fittings. At one time...
