    Painted Bumpers!!

    Just my imput! Hi guys, I never could really afford to get my bumpers re-chromed for 800.00 a pair. For a few years I lived with that high heat silver motor paint that got me by. I guess it looked kinda fine. Today I felt they both needed re-painting, so I bought and used the new "Dupi-color"...

    Dumb question

    I'm trying to find out what those "two" holes (each side) are on the inner heads at 9 & 3 o'clock. Just below the carb and between the intakes outer edge?

    Timing Mark

    Can't seem to time motor correctly. The damper's timing mark "is" at 0 @ TDC compression stroke however during timing with the light the mark must be 45-50 degrees off. "Connected to #1 plug of course". If I rotate the dist either direction trying to find the mark (of course the motor stalls...

    Like Pulling teeth!!

    Very fustrating day..I didn't think trans lines would be that big of a deal with the TTI headers. I'm sure some people that live around me kept their kids inside. :cussing: I found with the new mini starter and tube #5 (the baby that lays inboard against the pan) hit the old trans lines. Either...

    Help ID Oil Pan

    Need some help to ID a oil pan guys. I know it came off a 72 318 SB, but could have been swaped from another block. It has the very "rear" sump, so I think I'm correct to say not an A-body that uses the drop link. (that was my very first A-body piss off problem years ago) :lol: Any idea's...

    It's different!

    It's not a A-body or MOPAR, but thought it deserved a look. Was a riding bud out in BC...a company, name not given, is going to produce 100 cars, called "789". It's on a Corvette chassis; front end a 57 Chevy; side a 58 and rear a 59,,,hence the designation 789 Looks like a nice car to...

    Own MSD Diagram

    First time involved with MSD! My son is sending me a MSD 6AL. I have read the on-line installation and seen their so-called Chrysler directions, however I find when talking "MOPAR" specific..there seems to be something lacking or I just can't see it (mostly to do with the bal resistor, volt...

    I'm an idiot?

    I'm an idiot! I will accept that... To day I deceided to prime the engine and forgot about the "oil pressure" hole. Who ever said it may take a few miniutes to get it going :scratch: ....."try" about 10.2 sec flat. All I can say it's a good thing I had glasses on, and talk about a "pre-mature"...

    Right advice?

    Well guys, I have a tight gut today! I ordered my TTI's polish ceramic(headers only) for a spicy $1000 CDN. Although they are pricey, I deceided to grab the bull by the horns and do it right! Up front...I woudn't have gone this far for headers on my own if it wasn't for all the input the forum...

    Another E-bay beauty! I'am I wrong to think this is unreal? I can't believe this sell... $600.00 "starting" for an A-body rear with no pumpkin...and he wants the brake cables. :tard: 260098829311

    What kind of headers?

    I'm taking a "poll" on what headers you use now, "not" what you would like to have. I think this poll could help in header decision making using a majority poll %. It's understandable, that the price, fit & constuction of headers vary greatly. I also understand "most" of use would enjoy...

    Mini Starter Comformation

    Well, I now "remember" what a pain in the *** it is to take a mopar starter out of a SB with headers...*&%$#@*, my arm will never be the same. I think it's time to invest in a mini starter for the rebuild. If possible, those of you that "already" have one installed, could any confirm what I...

    Somtimes I think I know quite a bit, however there's always something I seem to pick up from you guys no matter how small. :notworth: For more then a two years I've been driving around with only about 6/8 throttle and kickdown. Things worked on and off depending (more then likely) with help...
