    Under dash button

    is it an on/off switch or momentary? I added a switch around the same place to disable the power windows, like a power window lock. it goes to the power window relay that is pretty much right above the switch. If it was a rotory knob, then might be front/rear speaker fader.

    Hydraulic Roller Cam Button End Play

    I must have ordered the 440 source extra thick timing cover with the cam button reinforcement. Just open up the box yesterday and the cover is really nice and thick. Haven't mocked up to a block yet. Also got the extra thick oil pan, and it looks really nice. These are real heavy and the...

    Circuit Protection and the "Shunt wire" by-pass

    Doing some testing on using a relay to activate/cleanup the engine ignition wiring, and found the relay needed around 7.75 Volts or better to activate which shouldn't be an issue when cranking if the battery cables and wiring is half-way decent? I just got an ACES EFI kit that came with a...

    Electrical education?

    Understanding a circuit it helpful when troubleshooting, but it's just the tip of the iceberg if you are planning your own wiring. Just trying to compare / select a wire/insulation type opens up a can of worms. What gauge wire, how many wire strands, avoiding aluminum wire, copper wire, tinned...

    Non computer controlled RWD with best gas mileage ? Car and truck

    The old cars were easy to work on, but you did have to work on them more often. All the changes to fuel and oil have made owning an old car more difficult unless you either upgrade parts, like exhaust valve seats and maybe roller cams, or use high ZDDP oil and leaded fuel, or additives to the...

    My least favorite thing about classic cars is...

    Least favorite thing is mice and other insects that attack your car, usually when in winter storage. Wasps built a nest behind my Ram Trucks side view mirror, and mice got in the Charger and looks like they were up in the dash :(

    Hydraulic Roller Cam Button End Play

    If the rear cam plug is out you can put a dial indicator on the back of the cam to measure end play. might be able to do the same off a cam love with an indicator that measures at an angle? I think the cover gasket is around 0.010" thick? Maybe trim the cam button to where the cover just...

    Johnny Mopar, I have been enjoying watching the videos. The videos from 72 Road Runner GTX are really good information too.

    727 swapped for what

    Because it was custom built, your best bet is to remove the transmission and count the splines on the transmission input shaft. The 1965 pushbutton transmission would have originally had a 19-spline input shaft, but because you have what sounds like a later cast crank converter, the input shaft...

    Transmission oil pan leaking slightly

    On the main trans housing they can leak from the pan gasket, selector shaft seal as above, the filler tube O-ring, and the rear band pivot O-ring(s) at the back of the case. Be careful with the oil pan bolts, seems they get stripped out often, not sure if from cross-threading or over-tightening...

    Summit Racing brand Gas Ported Piston Rings?

    I'm still collecting parts for the engine build. Just got rocker arms, and the extra thick oil pan and timing chain cover from 440 Source, plus a bunch of smaller stuff including the 1/5th model of their new 440 block that should be out next year?

    Aces EFI black Friday sale

    If your looking for an EFI system, looks like good prices on the Black Friday deals on Aces EFI. I haven't used the Aces EFI yet, but just ordered the Killshot 2 Pro Top End Kit. I already have an EFI tank and pump, so didn't need those. The Top end kit had the TBI EFI, Distributor and ignition...

    Circuit Protection and the "Shunt wire" by-pass

    Here is what I started with. You can jump towards the end to see how I setup the fusible links and relocated the alternator wire. The insulation on the fusible link wire is really thick so it made inserting the terminal into the bulkhead connector hard. Would have been easier if I used TXL...

    Circuit Protection and the "Shunt wire" by-pass

    Yes. I was trying to describe the original protection design for when there is a short or excessive load on the interior wiring, and that the original 12 AWG wiring was not designed for a high output alternator, or several extra interior loads. With all the wiring questions, and thinking of...

    Cutting hood for scoop

    Had the hood off and I did the diagonal measurements from the engine compartment to find the center of the carb stud location and copied the measurements to the hood, but if the hood is on, you could just close it on a long air filter stud to find the center of the hole location. Anyhow...

    PSA Pay attention out there..

    Wheel chocks are not that expensive. On my truck, I had used wheel chocks, but forgot to also use the emergency brake when I pulled the valve body out of the transmission. Truck still try to roll, but good thing I had the wheel chocks.
