Torque specs are in the FSM. Why is the shifter lower support installed facing right? Mike

To be fair on my end-I don't know for sure if they're not all steel. I never owned a 62. Just guessing from the covers on my 63 and 2-65s. I never have/will never "restore" a car. I made my own covers from aluminum for my 65 Belvedere. I even used rivet nuts to retain them, never did enjoy...

2" Dougs. Hughes HTL6064BS. I can't remember ever checking the vacuum. I don't need no stinkin' vacuum! Mike

I used Ohio Crankshaft's kit (probably before 440 Source was around) with no regrets. Use the smallest overbore you can, it makes for stronger cylinder walls/better ring seal. RPM heads. Complete Hughes valvetrain (solid) and my 6 Pack induction. 10.6:1 CR, Dougs headers with 3" exhaust-X-pipe...

Those holes get a rubber cover. The lines do fit with the cover. The holes are wrench access to the alignment cams. Mike

I contacted MSD tech support and was told I needed a 8132 Signal Generator. I looked it up and it is described for use with a magneto style ignition system, which is not what I have. The 8920 appears to be correct for my needs but, I want to be sure of proper wiring before I drop another 'C'...

I think that was about the time I attended one of Landy's Performance Clinics. Hard to remember-it was a while ago. Mike

Deep enough has never been one of my problems(:. Mike

I have no comparative analysis to offer, Just wanted to say that 2 1/2" pipe is too large for a mild 318. 2" would be a better match (dual). Too large a pipe slows the exhaust velocity and results in a power loss. Mike

I just read the post on adjusting front wheel bearings and it made me think about my wrenches. I have accumulated these in the last 55 years. From the left: Dial readout 1/2" drive Kwik-Way (currently broken) (Army-Air Forces) Army Surplus Dial readout 1/4" drive Snap On Army Surplus Beam type...

Cheap little voltmeters with digital readout are available and even include a charging port for your phone. Good to mount inside the glove box. Mike

That style clip drives in the gap between the floor pan (where it swoops up to meet the rear side of the rocker panel). Mike

All the current from the alternator passes through the contacts at the bulkhead connector. As the brass wire terminals in the connector age/corrode/become loose from vibration, they become more resistant to electricity flow and that causes heat. With enough heat the connector can melt/fires can...

I purchased a gallon of anodize remover online but, many have said Easy Off oven cleaner will do the job. It did take me more than one application to get the anodizing completely off. This can be tested as you proceed by sanding, looking for the bare aluminum "gray" slurry that indicates...

All the aluminum trim is anodized. If you want to polish it just remove the anodize. I used Ever Brite after polishing mine to prevent corrosion. Mike

I used Diamond Power brand from E-Bay. Very cheap but, professionally packaged, looked and spec'd good. Made in India but, they do build 100s of thousands of cars there. I couldn't find any other rod bearings for my 2008 3.8 V-6 so I ordered a set and have 3-4 thousand miles on so far (it's my...

Sure. Mike

From your description it sounds like a plain worn out transmission. Get it rebuilt. Mike

I recently had to replace my never used new Autometer Ultralite tachometer. Just started the car-no tach? What am I missing? I checked all continuities, The fuel pump speed control, tach, and Fast 2.0 all are tied to the MSD tach output. Only the tach does not work. Any guidance fellas. Mike
