Classic Industries sells two oil sending units for a 440. Part numbers are MD8076 ($45.99) and MD17200 ($14.99). Does anyone know the difference between the two? Is one for a gauge setup and the other for an idiot light? Inquiring minds want to know.

Just throwing this thread out there to chronicle the re-do of Brewzer. Here is a before shot and some of the progress so far. Thanks to Joe Phillips it is finally getting the rear quarters done the right way instead of all the little patches that were done originally. While the body is being...

I am wondering if anyone knows if this show is pet friendly? I am going to be in the St. Paul area the week before the show on vacation and will have our dog with us. I would like to attend the show as a spectator and am wondering if they allow pets inside the grounds. I am also wondering if...

I am looking for a 337 manifold in good shape that hasn't been port worked by anyone yet. I need to get my carb a little lower with the TrickFlow 270's and this is the best compromise manifold available which will allow that. I have a Larry Smith ported Indy single plane manifold (440-I4-2) if...

I hurt the motor last year and am finally able to start tearing things down to fix it. While trying to figure out what went wrong I am seeing signs that lead me to believe the valves were either floating or bouncing off their seats. I am running the Trickflow 270's with the springs for the big...

I recently had a rocker shaft break on me and hurt two exhaust rockers and am looking for replacements. Everything else is ok in the set but the rollers on both got pretty beat up. I don't think that Hughes will repair them and I don't know if their newer style is the same geometry as their old...

Now that the Trickflow's have been out there for a while, does anyone have any track times to share? Since we don't race dynos I am curious what kind of track numbers they are producing and the combos that are running them. It would be interesting to see if a 600hp Trickflow engine produces...

Hello all, I am going to be sending the Coronet off for paint and a few rust touch ups. The car is currently black and will be repainted black to correct some other issues with the original job. I am looking for advice on what paint to use for the project. I am looking for the deepest black...

I am looking for an engine cradle for a big block. I need to ship a long block cross country so if you have anything that fits the bill, please PM me. Thanks, Brewzer

I am looking for another crossmember to modify for my gear vendors unit. I am trying to use a polyurethane mount but it is too tall so I want to modify one to fit better. Located near Milwaukee if anyone local has one.

I figured it might be time to start a build thread on my Coronet to document my build and hopefully help some people avoid a bunch of the headaches I have encountered along the way. I'll start with today's adventure and work my way back. Today's adventure was the install of a new S60 Dana. It...

So I went to a local show today and won first in class for '65 to '70. This is an all makes and models show so it felt pretty good to win. I have never entered shows for validation but it felt good to finally get some recognition for all of my knuckle busting over the years.

So I'm watching Power Nation this morning (last week's episode) and see their Trick Flow 270 big block build. Instead of showing users the right way to do things, they show this crap: https://photos.app.goo.gl/nvJf811hA2AZvetF3 Nice way to ruin a perfectly good pair of headers. Then, later on...

While getting my daily car reading in I found this: http://www.hotrod.com/articles/new-tame-carbs-idle-drivability-kns-eci-plate/ It's basically a mini EFI setup to fine tune your carb's mixture. For carb guys that can't get it quite right this lets you tune everything a little lean and it...

So I just ordered my rear end from doctor diff tonight. I'm super excited because it's been a long time coming. I ordered the strongest non-spool version I could. I went with an S-trac differential and 35 spline axles with 5/8" studs. I am also having the axles dual pattern threaded for 1/2"...

Hopefully someone can make me feel better. I took the Coronet to a dyno days event with the new combo and numbers were WAY below what I would have expected (see photo for dyno sheet). The motor in question is my 526" (4.375 x 4.375). My combo is as follows: 10.78:1 cr Custom ground 262/[email protected]...

Has anyone on the list installed one of their columns? I have the column in place and it is WAY too short. Their instructions say to just grab the shaft and pull it to the length you need but mine won't budge. I even tried putting the end in the vice and pulling but no luck. Any suggestions?

Apparently my torsion bars are just getting a little too old for the task at hand of holding up the front end :) I currently have an old set of factory 318 bars (despite running a 526" RB) that are getting pretty tired. I have cranked them up a few times over the last 15 years but they start to...

I just had my trans rebuilt with a CRT full manual reverse VB with no transbrake and put in a new converter from Ultimate. At the same time this was done I switched to a Milodon dipstick. On the dipstick it says to check the fluid in park which goes against the usual 727 check in neutral...

I am in new territory and am looking for help from the brain trust here. I have my engine back together and am now ready to start fine tuning it. This is the biggest cam I have ever run and my first solid roller so I have no idea what to expect normal baseline numbers to look like. Here is the...
