    small block to big block T-bar starting point

    Working on a 66 coronet, originally a 318 car, now it has a B-Block installed. The torsion bars measure .885" on D/S and P/S. The adjusters are backed off to the point they are just making contact, and there's no weight on front end. My question is, can anyone offer a good starting point for...

    Looking for possible idea to track down for an issue (maybe it's normal). 66 Coronet, not really a street car, rough idle, built/building the entire wiring harness for the car. Starts and runs fine, running lights, hi-low beam, gauges, elec cooling fans, elec fuel pump. Everything works, but...

    Will It fit

    Looking at picking up a set rear tires so I can move the car around, and put it on the road for a little testing/shake down, 66 Coronet with 10" slicks on it right now. I live in a rural area and have to travel about a mile to get to the black-top. So, I'm eye balling a set of 255/60R15 to put...

    Just curious as to what idle I can expect to achieve with the following set up. Right now I have it at 950-1000 rpm at operating temp, doesn't seem to want to go any lower, but I haven't really got into tuning yet. I just installed a MSD 6AL to work with the MSD distributor and my super...

    SOLD Fuel Cell

    Small fuel cell, came with the car I'm building. Previous owner must have had some serious speed plans. It was installed in the trunk but never used. Don't know brand, or where it came from. I believe, from it's size, that it's a 3 gallon cell. It has anti-slosh foam inside. I think it...

    Tracking down cause for a no spark condition. So, since I'm not a auto electrical guy, I'm learning as I go. I've checked for voltage at the ECU, the Ballast resistor, and the coil + side. I get 12 (plus) vdc at the ECU connector, the Ballast resistor, and almost 12vdc at the coil until I...

    Door Glass Install, from nothing

    I'm installing the hardware on the door glass for my 66 coronet (2dr HT). I'm starting with the glass and a hand full of hardware pieces. I didn't take things apart, so I'm building from zero. Anyhoo, most of it's straight forward but the parts kit that I got from DMT has two nylon rivets...

    Fuel Pump Rebuild

    Rebuilding my elec fuel pump, an older Mallory unit (series 140). I haven't had any issues but I do have a couple questions. 1. When you put things back together, do you coat the pump internal working parts (pic 1) with anything, some type of lube? It seems to me that the steel pump parts...
