    Quarter panels and door skins made by Joe Phillips Restoration in Canada. Thick gauge steel. After stripping my car, it's not nearly as bad as i feared. I only need a few patches, not skins. I believe I paid about $3200 shipped for these parts. Parts are located in Longmont, Colorado. Asking...

    9.5" Torque Converter Bolt Pattern

    I put my 67 GTX on the lift today to install my new Dynamic Torque Converter. I first noticed that the factory converter bolts are 5/16-24 while the new converter takes 7/16-20. I then measured the bolt spacing on the new converter, if i recall correctly they measure 7-1/16" on 2, 7-1/8", and...

    Gear Vendors Coupon Code?

    I didn't do the math for rpm's, just for final drive. I have 3.23's now. 3.91's should result in a 3.05 final with the gear vendor. I put a fair amount of highway miles on and the 3.23's aren't terrible so I figure a little improvement on the highway and a pretty drastic improvement in town...

    Gear Vendors Coupon Code?

    I am ready to order an overdrive kit for my 67 GTX from Gear Vendors, does anyone have or know where to find a coupon code? I just installed Holley wheels, new tires, and recieved 3.91 gears from Dr. Diff. Thank you!

    67 GTX 440 Rebuild, 915 Head Upgrades

    Motor is rated at 375hp from the factory with that manifold, was that an exaggeration? You provided some pretty good information, but apparently felt the need to weave in some garbage. If Stealth heads painted are indistinguishable from 915 heads, that is pretty usefull info I would have been...

    Don't swap in a modern engine or efi for driveability

    Could you explain how you shift it when driving? Do you use the split in every gear or usually just at high cruising speeds?

    Don't swap in a modern engine or efi for driveability

    It drastically decreases the rpm's you're running down the interstate. This keeps you below stall speed on your converter, therefore it is slipping as you're driving. This is the reason for lockup converters.

    Don't swap in a modern engine or efi for driveability

    I'd love to drive a car with a GV unit, but until then no lockup converter makes it a no-go for me. Is converter slippage not an issue with the GV?

    Don't swap in a modern engine or efi for driveability

    That's exactly why I installed a Sniper on my GTX. Every once in a while I would grab the GTX keys then put em back and grab a different set because I just didn't want to take a little extra time to pump the throttle, let it warm up for 20 seconds, or possibly have it breaking up a 1/2 mile from...

    Don't swap in a modern engine or efi for driveability

    I just finished that fiasco with my 2014 Cummins. Amazing truck in every way until that update crashed my Infotainment system. I sent it back to them to be refurbished for $350 and put the truck up for sale. Bought a 99 Cummins with blue and red knobs for the heat and rebuilt everything on it...
