Anyone have a site or document detailing the process? Should I use gasket sealant?

Okay I am simply posting this story because it has been a nightmare. So I ordered a replacement radiator a couple of weeks ago and I received it and everything looked GREAT but when I test fitted it the upper radiator hose was to close to the AC compressor. I call the company and he tells me I...

I am looking for the champion radiator that will fit my 65 barracuda. Can anyone help me find the model number or a place to buy it at a reasonable price? Inlet is in the middle and the outlet passenger side.

I have a stupid question should the fan fit into the shroud or just as close to the fan hole as possible?

Okay so here is what is happening and what I believe the issue to be. When I am at a idle, the RPMs are low, if the AC clutch engages it squeels intermittenatly. I thought it was the bearing but I then realized it does NOT happen ALL the time. I can hear at regular running RPMs the clutch slips...

I found the clutch bearing I hope but now the question is how hard is it to remove the bearing and seat a new one? I know how to remove the clutch. From what I have found remove the bolt at the center and either use a claw pulley remover or tap around the pulley till it pops off.

Is there a set guide to how much R134 is needed or how do I calculate how much I need?

I am finding with thee 100 degree weather we are having my car is having a bit of trouble keeping ahead of the heat. My question is does it make more sense to move to a flex fan? Add a couple of small electric fans as helper fans? Or replace with an all electric fan setup?

Okay I got everything installed and I am getting the hoses tomorrow. I have a white wire off the RV2 compressor does that run to the white wire on the evaporator in the car? Also top passenger side has a plug is that the oil fill plug?

Okay I have a 65 Barracuda with a Slant Six. I bought a compressor with mounting bracket but I seem to be having some issues. Is this the right bracket? I was able to line up the first two of the holes to my water pump second and third bolts from the heater hose but the swinging third mount...

Ok so I have been searching and trying to find out with no success what hoses to use. I have found kits they include #6, #8 and #10 size hoses. I have no problem buying all three but how do I know which one I need to use from each location? Can anybody help with the routing? Like I know I go...

I have a slant six direct drive fan. What parts and where can I find them? As for installing what do you need to do? Is it as simple as removing the fan and adding the parts?

This is actually a two part question. I have a 1965 Barracuda with a 225 slant six. First I am buying a used AC system from a guy who claims that it does not require an idler pulley. Looking at the service manual is anything but helpful in respect to this. My question is whether this is possible...

I stumbled onto a good deal on eBay for a full system from a Valiant but it is quickly getting out of my reach so my question is there a cheap alternative to something like vintageair.com? Can I pull it from a late model car or any place I can find the parts cheap.

So I stopped by a radiator shop today because I had noticed a leak. Turns out that my radiator is leaking from multiple places along the top and bottom edges. I asked about recoring since mine is still original and about 280. What do you think about the price? Any other suggestions for fixing it?

So my radiator appears to be leaking from the overflow. I have no idea what or where to look to resolve this. I have replaced the thermostat and about 8 months ago I flushed and changed the coolant.

Ok I don't have my service manual with me and I am bored can some one give me a quick and dirty thermostat install? I thought you simply removed the upper radiator hose and it was right there at the block side. Do i need to remove the neck from the block also?

Today I went to my 65 Barracuda this afternoon and noticed the heater core barfed antifreeze all over the passenger floor board. Now I get to learn a new skill. My question is what do I need to do to test this? Turn the heater on and look for leaks? Or should it weep? Any help would be awesome...

I keep finding leaves blow through my heating when I turn the fan on. Can anyone suggest a way to stop that from happening?
