    Holley 3310

    Leave it as is & run it. I’ve had very good experience with that exact carburetor

    15 x 8 or 15 x 10 ?

    15”x8”…I sold my 15”x10” because of clearance problems. The 15”x8” still needed fender well modifications

    Defogger/ Convertible Switch Mystery?

    These guys are correct. The knob itself is reversible. Convertibles never had rear window defoggers (fyi). That location is correct for a convertible top mechanism & “probably” the same location for a defogger switch (?)

    Waterless coolant

    It’s ethylene glycol with about 1% water. I was an antifreeze scientist & inventor for several years. I analyzed Evans Coolant (& found an angle around their patent). It’s SUPER close to DexCool concentrate. It’s based on 2-ethyhexanoic acid (fyi)

    Waterless coolant

    Specific heat is the material’s ability to absorb & hold heat. Thermal conductivity is a chemicals ability to conduct heat….out of the engine’s coolant and into the air. That is what you want and water is way more efficient than ethylene glycol. Also…FYI - Water Wetter & similar products are...

    Waterless coolant

    Agreed. Water transfers heat better than ethylene glycol (EG). Evans coolant is basically DexCool without any water.

    Speedometer Wobble - Diagnosis & Repair?

    Any idea what they did to it?

    4-speed console question

    Nope. It’s really tight in there. You may be able to slide the whole console towards the passenger side a little bit by ovalling out the main 4 console screws down inside the console(?). I’ve also considered if (?) I can trim either edge (console side or floor side) of the 4 spd “hole cover”…the...

    Speedometer Wobble - Diagnosis & Repair?

    70 Road Runner 4spd rally dash - Speedometer had been operating smoothly, but then I drove 100-110 mph (allegedly ). Now, if I get over 70 mph the speedometer needle moves wildly (80mph-100mph even if I’m going 70 mph). I “thought” it was my speedometer cable. I installed a brand new OEM (circa...

    Brake vacuum reservoir = hard starting?

    Won’t affect starting at all

    Clutch pedal adj & shifter position

    Your shifter is fine. To make the clutch engage higher up, increase the “free pedal” by adjusting the clutch adjustment nut on the clutch release leaver so that it pushes the clutch release lever further towards back of the car. Keep going! You’re almost there!
