Good point. I should replace the brake hoses regardless. It has some weird Speed Master proportioning valve in it. When I put inline Tube SS brake lines on and used their proportioning valve, I lost brakes completely. A shop installed the oddball proportioning valve
I’ve never heard of heavy hood springs (I’m not an expert, but do have a 70 air grabber). Maybe your factory (original?) springs are just weak??? You don’t notice until you put a heavier hood on
Yeah, I don’t know if it’s 2” or 8” or whatever where the problems start, but it seems like when they’re really too long the inner cable hangs up on the big bends

Either way, it sounds like an ignition switch or the...
1. Circumference of your tire = 3.14 x diameter (height). You can get tire height (diameter) from
tirerack.com
2. Old tire circumstance divided by new tire circumference = relative rpm.
Example: 4.10’s and current tire (28” tall x 3.14 = 87.92 inch circumference)spin 3500 rom at 70 mph. New...
