    Rear edge window trim installation

    I ended up finding some 1/32 at Summit Racing, so that should be a tad over 0.030. Hope it’s not too tight

    Rear edge window trim installation

    Thank you. Do you think an auto glass place or regular glass place would be best? I have both near me

    Rear edge window trim installation

    Hi all, I have a simple, but unusual question. I have a 67 Coronet 2 door hard top and the vertical stainless trim on both the back of my door window and the front of the quarter window have come loose and fallen off. In fact, I had to take the door card off and fish the trim out from inside...

    440 Source Stealth Heads

    I have about 300 miles on my stealth heads with new roller rockers. Just dropped the pan and found metal shavings in the bottom of the pan. Removed the valve covers and discovered there are clearance issues with the 8/8” pushrods that came with the kit and the pushrods for the intake valves are...

    67 R/T restoration - Spark plug wire routing

    Wanted to button things up in the engine compartment and found these nice routing brackets by R&M Specialties. I think it turned out pretty nice.

    WTB 1967 coronet R/T

    I saw your post and although I have not been considering selling my 67 R/T, I might be able to be talked into it for the right price. It is a factory 440 4 speed car. Born yellow, but now triple black with a new paint job. I just did a performance upgrade on the motor about a month ago, but...

    Oil Pan & MP Windage Tray Sh*t Sandwich Mess

    I like the idea of a two finger torque method with a 1/4” drive. I went by torque specs at 15 foot pounds and destroyed my pan. I think one mistake I made was using a 1/2” drive torque wrench with a 3/8” adapter

    Occasional clunking in the back end

    Glad I found this thread. i also just put a newly built sure grip third member in and I’m experiencing the same issue. I was getting worried because when I removed the old third member, three bolts that hold the ring gear on were missing from their holes. One actually fell out as I was removing...

    I was able to adjust the linkage. Only aboutcanothe4 1/4” adjustment left on the rod

    Over Center Spring question

    This makes sense now. Thanks for the explanation. Sounds like the diaphragm clutch will not push the pedal past center

    Over Center Spring question

    So the spring makes the pedal come up right? Why would it cause it to stay on the floor? I would think the spring would have the opposite effect

    Over Center Spring question

    I’ve seen a lot of discussion regarding the over center spring. I have a 67 R/T 4 speed that has had the over center spring removed and I hate it. Obviously someone put an aftermarket diaphragm clutch in and it makes my clutch pedal sit about 2-3” lower than the brake pedal. My question is…Is...
