I put some FF 1.06 bars in my wagon, had those set aside for my 65 but have decided to go bigger. The 72 Challenger I'm currently working on for a customer is getting 1.03 bars bought through BAC and made by Sway Away. The 67 wagon had the .880? bars as it originally came with a 273 but the PO...

:lol:

The 440 was under cammed and under headed from the factory, the heads and cam was more suited for the 383.

727 and using a cable system to the carb for TV to transmission. Everything I'm reading speaks to making adjustments with stock TV rods. The way I have it currently adjusted is I've set the maximum TV to be at full throttle. But I'm not sure that is the correct ratio. It's not shifting very...

Hmm. May have to back the bars out, pull the arms out, pull bushings off the shaft, get something latched onto the shaft to stop rotation, the torque it. Relaod the components. Great question as I have the Delrin units for my 65 and will need to do this in the future too.

My 80's /6 D100 would push 23-25 mpg on the highway even with an automatic

On the earlier cars, they used two different starter relays....one for manual trans, and one for autos. The difference was the way the relay grounded. With an automatic, it went from a terminal on the relay down to the NSS, which grounded that wire when in Neutral or Park. With a manual trans...

Turn the car sideways, and everything unbolted dumps out. I like it!

had more than double didn't keep them when I was younger. 3 more Hughes, 4 purple shaft cams 2 Crower and 2 more crane 222-234 and 214-222 I think it was. plus many more.

For my 65, I'm using a 70 unit. 3 reasons why I chose that over the 65 one are: double shear mount idler arm[ also easier to source for replacement] as its stronger than the bayonet bolt unit, pass through the frame sway bar mounting, moves the engine back 1.5". I did extensive welding...

PM on the way…

Not only Elwood, but I have a couple that my Dad had from his tools. Still works...both...and I have the bits as well. Still a relevant tool even today...cr8crshr/Bill :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::usflag::usflag::usflag:

1960 slant six: 24.83 mpg

I think I still might have one. It was my grandfather's. It's still in his homemade wooden toolbox from the thirties. Same vintage as my drill press.

I don't like tight belts....they're hard on bearings....and it gives me indigestion too! :lol:

I have a 69 GTX that a purchased as an incomplete project. The 440 has been professionally rebuilt by previous owner and remains pretty stock, no performance mods from what I was told. The project came with many parts to complete the car to include a Mancini Pro Billet distributor and an MSD 6AL...

I may be interested in the Imperial one. I assume the mounting holes could be slotted a bit to close all the way. Got a pic of it?

73 dodge charger, got three of the ball joints out with the super 1 59/64” socket. Then found that the driver side lower ball joint doesn’t take the socket. Looked and it’s a round head. I’m going to assume it’s a press in but… WTF?! I don’t ever remember that there was a mix of socket and...

If I was building a mild 440 for myself, a 6401 would be in the mix. But for your stated use, I'd choose the 6400. A purple shaft hydraulic would be in the mix too, except for the INSANE money being charged for them now. But I haven't built a "mild" engine in a lot of years. (440s with purple...

My old daily driver was a '63 MG Midget which got 45MPG @ 4000RPM all day long. The old Hillman and Datsun PU's with a small 4cyl got over 40MPG too. Just as long as you were in no big hurry! :lol:
