    valve cover fitment issues

    417guy: I originally built the engine as a 440 with a factory original 426 max wedge top end. Over the years I got tired of seeing a bunch of max wedge tribute cars at the events I attend, so I decided to do something different. I sold all the max wedge parts as one lot and went with a set of...

    Robert, I am following your learning curve here and would appreciate it if you would quit telling us how old you are at 58. I'm 80 and not old yet, you young whipper-snapper...lol.

    Installation Tips for Longtube Headers in 383

    It's a matter of priorities. If you want your engine to look more 'modified/racey', like the difference in sound when the hood is open and idling, and want a few extra horsepower, go for a good set of headers like Dougs or TTIs. On the other hand, if you never open the hood and would rather...

    valve cover fitment issues

    Speaking just for myself: The Indy 440 EZ-1 aluminum head had to be shaved with a grinder on the corner closest to the distributor in order to use the Holley Hyperspark distributor. The Msd did not require that. My covers came from Marsh and don't have the long bolts through tubes. You can see...

    valve cover fitment issues

    I got mine from Marsh Performance and they fit fine with an MSD distributor and a Holley Sniper2 Hyperspark. I did have to drill the holes for the PCV and the oil filler cap: MOPARTS@PTMC.NET

    69 road runner door contour question.

    @dadsbee : Did you feel as bad as I did when an F250 4X4 driver thought he could drive through my car? I'd appreciate it if somebody who knows what they're doing on these machines from hell would straighten out my pictures...

    Convertible top back plastic window

    Novus fan here. #3 is for deep scratches, #2 is for light scratches and #1 is for polishing. I've always done it by hand because I worried that a polisher/buffer could catch the top and ruin it. My local parts stores all carry it or, of course, there's Amazon... I also used it on my Harley's...

    WTB WTB: For a 63 Plymouth Fury Convertible. Interior Rear View Mirror and Mount.

    I modified it a few years back to add a back-up camera. Not a clear enough image with the convertible top so I want to go back to stock.
