    Insurance companies for 68 Charger?

    Have had my car insured for $60K through Grundy for the last 6yrs. No claims yet and hope not to. $385 or so annually. One thing my agent told me when I signed up, if the car has an accident, call the agent first (him in this case), NOT the Grundy main line as the first call. He said that he...

    Water Pump/ Fan Pulley Install - 383 HP

    I just use a wooden dowel or chopstick and break it just long enough to stick out a few inches to support one bolt hole, then thread the others in, then remove wood piece for final bolt.

    Water Pump/ Fan Pulley Install - 383 HP

    I have seen those used on some cars for very precise belt alignment between pulleys if needed, but normally the spacer is not needed only to clear bolts is it? On the other hand, on my car, I did install a shorter head bolt near one of the belts up top for a bit added clearance to prevent belt rub.

    Water Pump/ Fan Pulley Install - 383 HP

    is this the original pulley or one you acquired for the build? I know that some some used pulleys that I've tried are deeper than others and not intended to fit depth wise. There are no spacers needed. If you get the correct pulley it shouldn't be a problem and you should have clearance.

    Why Phillips screws were designed to strip.

    Wow, never knew that. Everyone should watch the video to the end. The rubber band stripped screw removal trick is great - thanks for that!

    Is it just me or do led work lights suck?

    those magnetic LED strips look great! Do you by chance have a part # or link to order? Would these give enough light if I placed on the underside of my hood to do engine work?

    Waymo drives through Police Standoff.....

    What I still haven't heard about and thought all along should have been mandatory is for legislation to be evaluated and put in place FIRST and then put it to public voter approval BEFORE letting these things on public roads. It seems all of this was skipped. There should be mailers on public...

    Installing Hydroboost and bigger brakes in a 1970 Charger

    That was my car with the PS cooler under the battery tray as I had requested due to available room when you helped me install the new Borgeson PS box, but I kept my old remanufactured Saginaw PS pump that has about 7K miles on it. KD knows the rest, but I'll retell the story for others here -...

    Fuel Pump That Reliably Delivers 4-4.5 PSI?

    I've also seen more stable fuel pressures at the gauge if the gauge is installed after the carb on the firewall side end instead of before fuel sees the carb.

    Installing Hydroboost and bigger brakes in a 1970 Charger

    Hmmm, maybe there's some internal valving in the hydroboost to compensate before it gets to the pump...

    Installing Hydroboost and bigger brakes in a 1970 Charger

    This is not for your specific hydroboost or car, but in theory you would think the plumbing principals would be the same. Found this online - see below.
