    The Right stuff/RPI front disc conversion & wheel bearings

    i installed a disc conversion last summer (MDC62DC) with 11" disc on 1967 Satellite. I'm getting an intermittent grinding noise at left front when applying brakes. Pulled and checked to see something obvious but only see the pad scraping the outer hub when in freewheel. Nothing out of the...

    318 '675' heads/ correct intake gasket?

    i have 2843675 318 heads(68-71) that i'm about to order intake gaskets. I suspect an intake leak pulling oil. Previously i installed the Fel pro 1213 gaskets. Maybe i'm getting crosseyed and reading too much but i've read all pre-1989 head are 2BBL and as such..would I use the Fel pro 1243...

    What is this?

    I can't find a reference in the electrical diagrams to this relay on my 67 Satellite, mounted off inner fender. It looks alot like the stater relay that's at the firewall but has a wire to positive battery side and an inline fuse to the headlight harness?

    Ammeter wires question

    I decided I wanted to do the easier ammeter bypass in my 67 Sat by bolting together the feeds and taping up really good. My question is would you expect them to get warm? Secondary question, if I wanted to wire ammeter back up, is there a sequence putting it back on stud, meaning is there an...

    residual valve with proportioning valve

    Installing The right stuff front drum to disc conversion. My question from what i understand is a 10# residual valve is needed to keep the rear drums from pulling shoes back excessively. This kit only comes with an adjustable proportioning valve. My understanding is to mount/install the residual...

    Manual brake pushrod retainer/rubber grommet

    so I'm getting around to my front disc conversion (Right Stuff) and at the time of purchase, it was without the MC and proportioning valve and brake rod. I sourced the same MC by all accounts (Cardone 13-1571) w/15/16" bore as well as the adjustable pushrod. I put a call to Right stuff to...

    Headlight switch diagnosis

    so in a previous thread, my alt was putting out too much voltage. I've since fixed this issue. I'm assuming the high volt. may have messed with my headlight switch. I previously had taken it out to try and "clean" it up due to intermittent issues. I swapped many of the instrument dash bulbs to...

    alternator question

    so looks like my voltage reg. is going (15.6v at batt.) and as I verified my alt. amps (60) I thought I read somewhere that 2nd FLD terminal should be grounded. Is that right? As a side note, I purch. the solid state regulator from Ebay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/201249070790

    Combo u-joint fittament

    so I swapped my 741 open chunk for a 489 suregrip. Bought a Moog 347 combo u-joint and small side will fit drive shaft but large side doesn't "fit" right in. Wasn't sure if yoke was changed on this chunk but Dia. me asurements seem to be correct. See how the large side(7290) of joint fits. So...

    Low beams flickered and went out

    ride home last night had the low beams flicker and go out. Tried the switch a few times and they came on but went out again. High beams stayed on so I drove home that way. My understanding is the dimmer and switch are one unit? Would that be the most likely culprit or would a instrument volt...

    8 3/4 swap

    67 satellite and will be swapping rears from a 2.76 open to a 3.23 Suregrip. Have Dr. Diff green bearings kit along with conversion u-joint. As far as I understand, if I had a problem with the 3.23, I could swap the open rear back w/o any other changes, other than my u-joint, due to going from a...

    Keystone 14" wheels

    Anyone know offhand the backspacing on 14" Keystone wheels? Currently have 225/60-14 rubber, so guessing they are 14x7? Best I could find online is a 4 1/4" BS reference. Just looking if someone knows off the top of their head...I'll measure to verify.
