I have yet to find ANY chemical that restores darker aluminum castings back to a bright finish. Things like Berryman Chem-Dip seems to make it worse. I get good cleaning results with a pinesol solution. my ultrasonic cleaner also heats, so I like heating it up and letting it soak for 30...

Power. From the ignition key outward. If you put the key in, and nothing happens, as if the battery is dead, no dome light, nothing, that sounds like power... or a lack of it. Make sure the battery is charged, and stays charged during your tests. I would pay close attention to wiring harness...

you can mark your wiper arm posts using a sharpy, and maybe you can then observe if the parking is working to your satisfaction before putting the arms back on.

impressive. So will future readers.

It may be possible we have ALL gone 3 or more days without a shower, at least once in our meager mortal lives. But I think the gist of this thread is about those who REGULARLY go 3 or more days between bathing. I recommend those who do, take the 5th on this one.

Oi, I think I need this. This is the fan affixed to the fluid-drive clutch assembly for 383, 400 and 440 A/C cars in 1969-71? Would you, perchance, have the clutch (same part #) to go with it? I want this for a 1970 440-4 car.

cheese on top?? NOOOO !! ;)

anyone who openly admits to not showering for 3 or more days at a time may deserve to be shunned.

I think it takes >800 HP and a manual transmission to break an 8.75 rear end. My vote, is it will hold up fine even with 4.89s.

I'll send you a PM.

Yes, both the two- and three-speed motors auto-park. What you have pictured looks like a three-speed, to me. The "park switch" may be dirty, or one or more contacts at the dash switch. To service the "park switch" remove the cover from the gear sections, and inspect the cam and contacts in...

Note to self: insert the thumb, first. Who woulda thought? It may be useful to those with their thumb up their a$$.

Ha, good point, but I don't think distillation will grab the iron oxide from solution. bummer, actually. I'd love to say to my wife, I need to take my iron supplement, and then throw back a shot of moonshine from the freezer. For the record, I DO NOT recommend distilling and drinking for...

I've seen many a 440 oil pan (mostly on C bodies) that look like that, having been driven with the dent for years without apparent issue. The oil pickup is a good 1/2-inch from the bottom of the oil pan, so it takes a significant dent (more than 1/4-inch depression) before I would begin to...

Agreed. The center bench belt in most applications usually places the buckle to the driver's side, tip to the passenger side. I think the center matches the passenger side layout.

the sulfur helps in adding a layer that slows/prevents future oxidation... for a time. A molasses solution works well, and it's slow, giving one plenty of time to see the result and stop the process when they're ready. And similar to the citric acid formula, there is minimal reaction to the...

Not a sail panel? I was hoping to see a shot of a Super Bee up there. :p

Most likely, any of the 1968-74 service manuals contain all these specs on one page.

Unless you're reposting by pasting content. That said, I support the delay. It does more good than harm, IMO. Some still don't seem to read the text shown there, while waiting.

I concur with @SgtSuperbird the heater shield fasteners were originally 1/4-20/28 studs, stubby like an inch long. The exhaust manifold side has the 1/4-20 course threads, and the Conical KEPS nut (1/4-28) goes on the fine end. That said, when replaced, most opt for whatever they find at the...
