Very true, and I'll add this, we easily could achieve excellent fuel mileage with very little technology while still building solid, safe and reliable cars, Mercedes was doing it almost 50 years ago, It's called Diesel Powered. Some of my favorite cars to use as a daily transport vehicle are...

would these be the same as 1970 cornet fenders?

I grew up in a ford new car franchise store and you wouldn’t believe the cars I use to get for less than $500 (many times $100-$200) on trade ins in the early to mid 80’s. A $1000-1500 would get you a really nice “gas guzzler”. I once bought (6) 1st gen Camaros out of a trailer park for $750...

Can't be scared about problem cars, I've taken on some real projects but......Like many have said, you better know what you are getting yourself into and do your math after a proper analyzation of it's true condition. I wouldn't have been a bit scared of the Bird but at nowhere near that...

I was at our local 1/8th mile track a while back and there was a guy that had an 80’s toyota Tercel with a turbo charged Mazda rotary. It was ear piercing noisy but that little SOB was running mid to lower 5’s Absolutely crazy sounding

as an American I recognize cubic inches, not metric equivalents

I haven’t either, I wish there was though. Probably is at a commercial level I would guess

Building cars is all about trade offs. The higher the desired power the more you are trading off from an assembly line produced car. You need to find the balance that works for you. In reality, you might be trying a couple of different intakes to help you find the balance you are looking for...

large CID engines definitely have their advantages. I was sure you could get to those numbers and still be streetable, just wasn't sure you could do so with a dual plane intake. It would be hard to do so on a SBC but with a 440 it doesn't need to turn anywhere near as fast to get there. thanks

The two enclosed trailers I have both had rolled linoleum floors when I bought them, very low maintenance. One has been as a general purpose utility trailer and the floor gets abused, and it has some tears and bad spots, mainly from dragging large items in and out of it. The other is mainly...

I also have the Vevor and have been happy with it after many years. I would suggest though, buy the biggest one you can (I believe mine is the 30L but ?? it was their biggest at the time) as you will find more and more you wish you could fit in it. I originally bought mine for doing carbs but...

I'm curious about the OP's goal of 600hp while using a dual plane intake manifold. 99% of my aftermarket hotrod experience is with SBC's and I've never seen a dual plane intake support what he is trying to achieve. I've never ran a Performer RPM but I've had engines with performers and they...

I've been doing a little digging around on the SA/A difference and I think you are correct that the SA is a service replacement, and an S is a assembly line carb

still looking if anyone has looked on the back shelf in their garage and found one

that would be my thoughts also, looking at the part# cross reference charts it looks like this # is a 68-69 only carb though. I'm curious if anyone knows the meaning of the SA as opposed to the S, could that be an over the counter replacement or ?? I don't have anything to offer you but, I'm...

Are all of those 6324’s? What are you doing with them, I’m looking for an early 73 dated one

Thank You!!

Figured I would throw my hat in the ring also, I will be adding MOPAR content shortly of my barn find GTX, I was holding off a little more trying to get more subscribers for this car and a couple other rare cars I have. If you like finding cars that have never been restored and mainly original...

Thanks for the reply but I'm looking for a specific Thermoquad.

In the past I've contacted Cheif EZ-Liner the frame machine company, there old tram guage measuring system (UMS) has all of the specs. I've always been able to talk them into looking back thru their data and have them email full specs. This is what the body shops would have used to straighten...
