    LED dash lights

    I swapped my OEM bulbs for LEDs in my 65 Coronet. Lighting was improved but less than I hoped for. I think the entire lighting system has been improved in newer cars through better engineering and technology so I can live with less if it means driving a real car! Mike

    Mechanical six pack question

    I used the factory "Direct Connection" setup modifications with lighter secondary springs with great results. Later, with my new 493 stroker, I had it dyno tuned at Steve Morris' shop, I assisted and we went richer 10 jet sizes on the secondary carbs to reach max power. The carbs worked the same...

    Here is a question for the flat tappet cam guys....

    Iron surfaces "work harden" with time so that will most likely explain why after a break in period cam material can withstand lower oiling conditions and survive. Mike

    Removing Inner Front Fender Panel

    Any examples of what I think you are proposing is to leave the entire shock mounting area and weld the front down bars to the top of the rails and the shock mount, leaving the top and horizontal sections of the inner to bolt the outer fender to. Is that your plan? If so you will only gain a...

    Any benefit to a tubular K-frame that retains T-bars ?

    I went the easy way with my 66 wagon and cut a series of holes across the front vertical section. Not much weight reduction but, I thought it looked cool! Every ounce counts. Mike

    Sandblasting: What abrasives do you suggest?

    I used glass beads for a long time but, I switched to crushed glass and have stayed with that product. I buy it a thousand pounds at a time to get a better price, then split the order with a friend. Mike

    Electrical education?

    I will admit I had automotive electrical training at college and systems were much simpler back then, but the basic principles haven't changed and they are simple. We have a LOT of electrical issues on this site and too many are declaring "electrical ignorance". Perhaps a sticky of electrical...
