Just hit 67

Normally about 6 qts... But often the convertors drains back & you'll have 8+ qts in the pan...

You can safely dump 4-5 qts back into the trans.... Personally I dump the fluid into clean 1 gallon jugs, usually I have a half dozen Antifreeze jugs laying around that I flush with water till clean then use a little brake clean... I use paint strainer filters in the funnel to prevent debris...

It has numbers, they should match the SO number on the bottom right corner of the tag.... But they don't match the VIN..

When all six tip in things get exciting pretty quickly... More so with a four speed.... Most of the time you're running on the center 2bbl.... Getting the jetting/power valve/accelerator pump& secondary springs optimized can improve the drivability...

PM sent

Pretty sure all the cars in post #2 are 17's.... Before you commit to 16" wheels take a hard look at available tires & realize they are going the way of the Dodo Bird.... Extinct....

Full disclosure.... I had no idea they were different till I got my 68 Coronet...I'd always played with 69/70 & 71 stuff.. Bought it off a guy who told me the whole story of coming home from Vietnam & getting the car & the girl.... Thirty some years later both were showing a few battle scars...

68 Fender Tag same similar to 66/67 but slightly different..... 69 is completely different...

69 and newer is a completely different deal.... In 69 the VIN is stamped in the fender tag, the trunk lip and the radiator support.. Not so on a 68...

Yup Build Sheet/Broadcast sheet will tie the VIN to the SO number which is the number stamped into the fender tag..

Those should match the VIN number on your dash... They won't match the number on the fender tag or stamped into the trunk lip or the radiator support..

Did they finish that bridge??????

The bolts are 5/16-18.... The standard deal with 12pt bolts is the socket size is the same as the thread size... So 5/16-18 = 5/16 12pt socket

12pt.. Probably 5/16
