    The Bee is almost done!!

    I like the way you reinforced the transmission crossmember before welding in the subframe connectors. Good idea to copy! Mike

    Help with missfire

    It sure wouldn't hurt to pull and disassemble that distributor. Is it extremely humid at home? Have you tried pulling plug wiers one at a time to isolate a cylinder? Mike

    FOUND 727 snap rings

    I can supply the servo snap ring free of charge. Postage appears to be $12.00. Is this OK? Mike

    Ballast Resistor Question

    Your runs are so short the gauge is not critical. Mike

    Ballast Resistor Question

    Does post #6 answer your question? Mike There is another set of contacts in the ignition switch that provides 12 volts -bypassing the ballast-to give a hotter spark for starting. It uses a brown colored wire. Mike

    I fabbed front torque boxes from flat steel plate but, skipped the rear since my springs are moved inboard. Mike

    Ballast Resistor Question

    Blow up my photo and you will see the jumper I made at the BH connector. It's a 10-minute job. Mike

    Ballast Resistor Question

    Brown? It sends 12 volts to the coil-just during cranking and it is necessary, so either connect al 3 or do the concealed bypass. Mike

    Ballast Resistor Question

    For a clean look, gut the ballast and solder in a piece of 12 gauge solid wire instead of the resister. It is easy to bypass the amp gauge on these models with a bolt in jumper at the bulkhead connector. Then add a voltmeter. Mike

    Thoughts on utility vs car hauler trailers

    I ordered a tilt bed with removable fenders, solid steel diamond plate deck, torsion axles, and electric brakes in 2005 from Indiana (of course). Needs a paint job but, works well. I have pulled big boat Chryslers, pickups, several B bodies, and a few compact sized cars, plus my B-2920 Kubota...

    Thoughts on utility vs car hauler trailers

    Just carry a pair of 2x6s to extend the ramp. Once the weight is on the planks, the trailer won't drop back down. I use that method with my own tilt bed trailer. Mike

    rockers for 383

    The worn rocker looks to me to be in great shape. I would reuse those if they are all in comparable condition. Of course, the shafts must share that condition. Mike

    Petronix vs MSD

    For the money, I have become a fan of the HEI conversion. It's GM engineering but, proven on millions of OEM vehicles. Probably the cheapest electronic ignition system available. Mike

    The mighty 318.

    Just sounds to me like a spark issue. Perhaps plug or wire. It is easy to overthink these things. Mike
