Mine also rubbing on the pulley but may be damaged by a bent-in section of the groove.

Pulstar confirms that they do not make cap discharge plugs for my 400. It is a 78, low comp engine. Suggestions for type of NGK, please!

I have used these on my old Rovers, up to the 90 Sterling which had modern electronic ignition, (Honda-Rover V6 2.7L). There is a noticeable increase in idle rpm and easier strarting. I looked on line and Pulstar popped up. 78 400 in my 63 Fury. Anyone with experience with these?

FWIW on my 70 Rover, the Girling calipers required TTY, one time use bolts. Yield is "deformation strength" usually 50% of failure strength, if I remembe from my strenght of materials course...63y ago... FWIW, aircraft g limits are, depending on type and use, 3.8 for airliners, I think 4.5 for...

If you don't buy, i have a dismantled matching numbers, 300K single carb and 727, plus sonic long rams in OR. Not cheap, but we could meet in SJC to transfer. Please forgive my poaching here, Craig hilll...

sorry I missed the 63, why are the 64 different?

Numbers matching 64 300K motor and 727, with correct single carb. Plus, long sonic ram tubes for 62-63, and 284 Street Hemi camshaft. Motor disassembled, transmission assembled. Located PDX, might deliver San Jose to Vancouver BC. CORRECT SHORT RAMS FOR SALE TODAY, SEE ADVERT. Mopar 383 or 413...

These short sonic rams would make my single carb 64 K motor a complete, authentic 64K sonic ram motor. See my for sale ad, which I will update with these availabble correct sonic rams. PS: If you have heard a jet sonic boom, maybe at an airshow in the 60s! the sound of the fuel:air resonating...

used on 64 K, as I have a K motor, with incorrect "long" rams!

57Fury. Maybe not iconic, but the best looking car of that year, and 1st year of torsion bars, and best ever sales, 3rd overall I think. Then...the 58 was in a movie, no?

Fuel gauge is also inop, but I removed the dash. Thanks for suggestions!!

my 63 400 Eddie 4bbl usually runs well. On return from a 727 rebuild, it now intermittently acts as if running out of gas, then recovers. Yes, I need to get in there and try to diagnose, but...expertise wanted!!

Dumb question: would they fit a 63 deck lid?

see my below post re push button failure with lots of advice. After replacing the cable, no correct adjustment could be achieved: buttons VERY hard, would not engage eitgher R or 1st. Finally a shop pulled the pan and found the 2nd shift lever fractured and jamming the mechanism. Full rebuild...

FWIW my 70 Rover 3500S with the ex-buick 215 had the same heat riser to feed the 2 SU carbs. But...there is a vacuum valve that opens at full throttle, to let pure, cold air in, for max power! I probably have a photo somewhere.
