    Russtoy tick

    I cut a 3/8 pipe coupler, and it jams the pickup in place. The Teflon tale idead is great. I'll use that too. Thanks

    Russtoy tick

    I finally found the tick. After I changed , the heads, rockers, rocker shafts, timing gears and chain cam and lifters. The beeping oil pick up tube was banging on the pan. I pulled the engine, thinking it might be a wrist pin. And found an edge on the pickup, was rough, and a hammered line on...

    Engine cuts out

    You also do not need a ballast resistor.

    Should you just start out by buying what you've always wanted? Is it cheaper that way? 1964 B Body

    I like the journey too. You can build it the way you want. Hopefully it turns out the intended way. If not, try it again. Plus you get the ego boost, from all the nice car comments.

    Engine cuts out

    I got russtoy running again. I put in all new proform, Chrysler licensed electronic ignition. No ballast resistor. The coil is designed to run on 12 volts. It does have the orange box. It's been good for a couple hundred miles.

    Engine cuts out

    I'm having a similar issue. My 69 charger, with a 440 source 512 kit. Hei distributor and coil. It will run for about 20 minutes. Then shut off. Jumper wire from battery. Same thing. It will restart, and run for 3-5 minutes. Then it has to wait. I have replaced the coil 3 times. Distributor...

    Front suspension specs

    Upper control arms are new, all bushings, ball joints are being changed. So it should be pretty much stock.

    Front suspension specs

    Are your front tires close in size? I had yo bring it back, and have it adjusted. As they showed wear in just a few miles. I'll let the shop know. Thanks

    Front suspension specs

    I am wondering if anyone has the specs for a 69 charger, with wide tires, 245/60/15. I had it done 18 years ago, and the guy who did the work has retired. I think he said it had to have a different setting on the camber, then stock. The shop I'm having do it this time doesn't know . Thanks.

    Russtoy

    Wow, I guess it has been a while since I was here last, like almost 3 years. So Russtoy is up and running, put about 6000 mile on, not sure how yet, U guess lots of trips to DQ. Tried a holley sniper. Didn't work out for me. left me stranded 2 times on the road. Towed home times. Not...

    Holley sniper

    I guess my problem was kind of missed here, the car runs fine, but I think it ran a little stronger with the 750 eddy that was on it at least to 5000 rpm. I know the 750 was to small, and the sniper throttle position sensor is not calibrated correctly, only show 78% at wide open, that could be...

    Holley sniper

    I may have figured out my problem... to simple a solution to see right away, new throttle cable, my old one didn't have enough movement to get full throttle, it I adjusted it to get full movement it was to tight for any engine movement, took off when leaving a stop light, not good, have a new...

    Holley sniper

    Wow, I have 10.5 compression and it pings bad on 91 non ox gas, without booster, in it at the timing I have which is 12 tdc. I haven't changed it since I bolted on my sniper. I have around 300 miles on my sniper and it says learning is 100 percent. I may try a little more timing and see what...

    Holley sniper

    I have tried advancing farther, it wanted to buck the starter, It could go a little more, just backed it off far enough to quiet the ping a little, I still need octane boost, with out it, it pings on this setting.
