This is the clip I have been looking for. I have one good one and need a full set to install the trim piece on the drivers and passenger side. Please see the attached images. If you have any or know of a source to get some I would greatly appreciate it

Could you assist with some trim clips I have been looking for quite some time?

I am in the process of attempting to convert a 62 to power brakes. I purchased a kit from Mancini that states it will fit a 62. After receiving the MBM MP 710 kit I ordered the first thing I found wrong, other than the vague pretty much useless directions, was that the pre-bent brake lines going...

Is a 1962 3 seperate pieaces or is it supposed to be spot welded together as shown?

there is a supplier even though people will tell you there is not, I got a new rear last year from them. I will dig through paper work and post the supplier and part number. It took me months to find mine.

still for sale?

I called and spoke with Dove manufacturing today and they cleared up a ton of my questions and concerns

I am speaking about side to side clearance, and also just running aluminum spacer to the aluminum body of the rocker. Hughes is the one who advised .005 - .010 was ok, but that seems tight to me. I worry that the aluminum on aluminum will gal. I have no real world experience to know how much to...

When centering these rockers over valve tip I was advised it is not necessary to use the .015 or .030 steel shims, if alignment was good. That would mean the aluminum body of the rocker would ride on the aluminum spacer required to get the correct offset. Will that be acceptable when you have...

Following.....just found 2 bad crane gold rockers on my motor. I'm now shopping for a new set myself, I wish I could get more feed back on the Hughes product as their price point is better for my budget

It's just a street motor we are playing with
