    BAD MECHANICS - Thermostat and Radiator Fan Blade

    Did you take a picture out of one of your earlier posts? I swear there was a photo showing what looked to be the kickdown linkage sloping down at a very unusual angle, thereby prompting the responses to get it looked at. It was there, it just didn't look right. Nobody was kicking you, they...

    BAD MECHANICS - Thermostat and Radiator Fan Blade

    I wouldn't be using any flex fan, too many horror stories I would follow the advice between my post here and your original post, either the adapter housing, or a port in the intake. Below the thermostat means within a few inches, not the bottom of the tank, block, hose or anywhere else. A...

    64 Dart ground set up

    I have ground straps from each head to the frame rails, & the ignition and distributor share an additional ground. Curious here, isn't the radiator support welded to the inner fenders and frame rails? (I have a 68, the early A's might be different). Wouldn't that be ground enough? later edit...

    LED Tail Lights

    Hi Dan, not to derail this thread-though I guess the original question has been asked and answered. I just read the headlight info on your website where the NHTSA was supposedly looking to improve our headlight regulations. You sure put a lot of time & research into your responses. Thank you...

    Fuse box upgrade 1965 Valiant V200

    Understand that that is an ambitious project. I would consider it worthwhile, the biggest benefit probably, forcing you to go through your whole wiring harness and looking at terminals and fixing things. Get the full wiring diagram for your car, and Trace out and understand each circuit as you...

    Where you guys placing the ECU on 65 Cudas/A bodies?

    I dont have a picture, but I mounted mine inside the firewall. cut the wires, ran them through a grommet, & soldered them. I mainly did it because I didn't want to see it (pre ECU car). I was worried that if I needed to troubleshoot, it would be a PITA, but since I never had a problem, that was...

    clutch fan gap too short

    That 1/4" was taken up by your motor plate, but if he did it, that would throw his pulley/belt alignment off, no?

    A question on mini tubbing

    Sorry for the highjack, but since the OP's question has been answered I figured it's OK. Here is my first mini tub job, pretty much my first Bodywork at all, other than the floorpans. Mines a 68 though, and not and early A. I only brought the tubs to the frame rail lips, not the full stretch to...

    speaker recommendations

    By "hooked up the ones I bought to another radio by themselves and they sound awful" do you mean you hooked them up and they were just sitting on a work bench or on the floor or something? Speakers need to be mounted to a panel, preferably some sort of enclosure, be it a box, trunk, door panel...
