    440 backfires thru Exhaust and won’t stay running

    It’s got maybe a 1-2 hrs of run time. It’s a fresh rebuild with 30 over. It does not pop at all now that I timed it a little better but less power than the last time I started it.

    71 steering column mounting kit vs 73

    I was wondering if I could buy a 73-74 mounting kit for steering column and it all bolts will interchange with 71. I think the only difference might be firewall gaskets which I already have new.
