    Tachometer interference?

    Yes, but which is 12v and which is signal? I looked up a simplified schematic and it looks like the signal line would have more resistance to ground than the power line. Also, it is tied to diodes at it's imput so maybe it would see a difference depending on which way you measure it. It's really...

    Tachometer interference?

    I think I have the same tachometer. But the studs in the plastic housing aren't labeled. Which one is for power and which one is for the signal?

    Comment by 'Powerflite' in item 'Hemi Wagon'

    Awesome! I was thinking of installing a 354 into my '70 Satellite wagon as well. What did you do for the exhaust?

    2.93 gears?

    The 3.31 is an early tapered axle ratio. They also had 3.15 gears. Those gears can be swapped into later rears if you use green bearings, or swap out the thrust block with a later version. The thrust block is 1/4" shorter on the early open gear sets. Early sure grip units, starting in 1958, used...

    Gearstar GM 4L65E 4 spd Auto behind 390 stroker (318 OE) .... BLASPHEMY!!!!

    I put a 700R4 into my '70 Satellite. It's a great transmission, and it doesn't require a lot of electronics to make it work. I get around 20mpg on the freeway in my wagon with the 318 in there now and it has been working flawlessly for the last 11 years. However, in hindsight, there isn't a huge...

    Fast Easy Method For Drilling Spot Welds

    A really quick & easy method that I use if I don't mind blowing through both panels, is to cut the hole with a plasma cutter. It blows back sparks, but the hole is cut within 2 seconds. Separating the panels is a little harder because of the melted metal at the interface, but it's pretty easy...

    2.93 gears?

    2.93:1 is a common ratio in the tapered axle rears with a 14 tooth pinion. The later gears used 2.94 with a 16 tooth pinion. The 2.91 is a Ford 9" ratio that requires an 11 tooth pinion.

    Very good hood from a '70 Satellite for sale in a desert climate. No rust. Gold in color with only very minor dings, if anything. I'm asking $150 + shipping.
