    Bypass Ballast Resistor

    Purchase (2) of these connectors, install (1) on each terminal of ballast resistor. And next make a short cable with female tab connectors and jumper the ballast resistor. Note that this method will retain all of factory wiring, no cutting required so U can return back to the origional OE...

    Failed Smog !

    Looks like some guys don't read the fine print.. The car failed due to high nitrogen/oxide not CO.. :praying: High nitrogen/oxide readings are due to the increase in timing/acceleration, recommend U recheck the basic timing specs and vacumm advance operation.. Just my $0.02... :thumbsup:

    70 GTX turn signals on hood bulge not working

    Grounding can be a problem... The hood lites are grounded through the hinges and often there is a poor connection due to paint and/or oxidation. I had that issue and simply installed a jumper ground link to the hood. Key point is to make sure U are getting the 12V through existing wires. Also it...

    Headers—looking for fit & ease of installation

    We have installed multiple sets of TTi headers, and for the most part they went in without having to dent any pipes. The one install we had a problem, was a 68GTX, and we found that he had bad motor mounts installing good ones and the headers went rite in... Just my $0.02... :thumbsup:

    Holley Carb 2300 2BBL Fuel Bowl slowly draining internally!?

    Some of the previous Holley carburators used a clear plastic window to view the float level... This was a great idea except some carburators used a cheap ABS material that easily cracked under severe heat conditions. I almost had a serious engine fire due to this issue... I did contact Holley...

    Looking For LED headlights for 76 Cordoba

    If U want to keep things stock and use the OE headlights, then the relay kit when wired properly does restore higher voltage to the OE headlights. The factory wiring harness does have about a 1.0V-1.5V loss which will cause the OE headlights to be slightly dimmer. Again as I have posted...

    Looking For LED headlights for 76 Cordoba

    1 thing to keep in mind... LED headlights depend more on current than voltage... So no relay kit is required, also note they draw significantly less current than a halogen or incadescent bulb... Just my $0.02...

    Looking For LED headlights for 76 Cordoba

    Note the previously mentioned Holley retrobrights do not require any modifications or cutting of the headlight buckets.. Their rear side is shallow and provides a nice heatsink. Just my $0.02... :thumbsup:

    Wow... Can't comment much about your situation but back a few years I did my build step by step.. The 1st engine parts I bought beside rebuilding/upgrading my original numbers matching block was to talk with TTI, on other past owned vehicles I had gone through the hassle of fitting various...

    Correct starter

    On my 70 RR I installed TTI 2" headers(440-200) and Powermaster starter(Mastertorque 9613) a few years back. Passenger side header slipped rite in, driver side header had to rotate it pass the steering box but everything cleared without having to dent the header pipes. No reported problems...
