    R134A issues and alternatives

    Its probably not something muscle car hobbyist are worried about but myself, as a licensed tech in a licensed garage, I can tell you guys 100% most shops check for purity before servicing A/C, and on a regular basis, we find contaminated systems from people using these "autoparts blend cans"...

    How important is a A12 wingnut ?

    If I can ask you, what type of air cleaner is on that Hurst 300? Would anyone know if the chrome top I have is original to something? Or was it custom? I can tell you it weighs a ton.

    How important is a A12 wingnut ?

    Honest answer, I did look for it yesterday and it was not where I thought it would be ... I sold most of my cars a couple years back and have been cleaning and selling off parts since. Every winter I clean up my mezzanine so I am due to get on my hands and knees and look for that bugger. I know...

    How important is a A12 wingnut ?

    I have a bunch of pictures but I think these are the important ones. Google still says its a A12. I don't see anything that would resemble a date code. What do you guys think?

    How important is a A12 wingnut ?

    Wow thanks everyone for the insite. I sold my 69 SuperBee a couple years ago, and it had the N96 air grabber option, so I understand what it means - my car had no relation to this intake. When I googled the numbers on this intake a few years ago, it came back as a "A12" option. So I just...

    How important is a A12 wingnut ?

    The solid one looks exactly what I remember... but I am older then dirt and my memory is not what it was. I appreciate your help, I need to get this intake assembly properly identified.

    How important is a A12 wingnut ?

    Yes, I guess I should have been clearer. The stud puctured is not the original as it did not have a wingnut when I got the assembly (as pictured) and was obvious to me its a threaded rod. It was the other one that is not shown that I know was there before - guilty as charged, I took it off a...
