I've got a '67 Coronet 440 4dr w solid front bench. Originally gold vinyl. My grandfather replaced front and back w gold cloth in '96. The front is finally starting to split at the "welt" line behind my left shoulder. Is there any company that sells solid front bench covers? All I see online is...

I'm going to be removing my front bumper, '67 Coronet, to facilitate lifting front end to drop engine/trans/K-member assembly. Is it necessary to remove bumper guards and cushions 1st? Manual only says see Fig 12, 13 n 14 for attaching points, gives no further instructions.

I've searched throughout n Googled n can't find what I'm looking for. Other than the cradle made for a UTV lift, I don't quite understand how to get the assembly on to the dolly with the car high enough to crawl under to unbolt. For me to get under my car to unbolt trans crossmember, k-fram...

I'm pulling my 496" out to do some freshening along w replacing 5/16" pushrods, one snapped, with 3/8", and replacing Comp XR280HR-10 with a more stroker friendly cam. Comp recommended XR292HR-10 and Hughes recommends SER4246BL. Both are extremely close to each other. Comp says wait time will be...

I wish our cars started this easy. 1979, 43 yrs old, Suzuki GS750E. Full choke, 3 throttle twists and starter. New video by john wilson

When I built my 383/496, I installed a high volume oil pump. When I primed it, it almost yanked the drill out of my hand, very high drag. Due to the wearing out of my bronze gear at such a fast rate and going w a melonized gear instead, I've installed a new Melling standard oil pump. When I...

I've never put a thermostat in hot water to check one before, never needed to. So yesterday I found about 3 laying around my garage and decided to check them. One 160° Stant, one 180° Stant and one 195° Robert Shaw. Every article I've ever read on cooling says the rated temp is the start opening...

I'm running a hydraulic roller cam n Comp Cams said to run a bronze gear on intermediate shaft. After less than 5k miles, I started car Sun evening, 130 miles from home and immediately had backfiring out the throttle body. Had it towed home following morning and found bronze gear worn to a knife...

Does anyone make a RH non-remote mirror for '67 Coronet 440? I'm sure it would be the exact same as on station wagon and tow package. I'm doing a lot of towing my boat to the river and backing down is very difficult only seeing out of driver side and almost impossible in the dark. I found 2 on...

Happy Birthday @CudaChick1968 !!!

I'm going to be getting another 3rd member for highway gear road trips. When I disassembled before, I was rebuilding everything, including rear drums. I will not be doing anything to the brakes this time. Can I pull the axles without doing anything to the brakes other than removing the drums? TIA

I've seen several references here to a Dakota p/u receiver hitch being used on 66/67 B bodies. I cannot find any post of one actually being used/done. I want to mount one to pull my '76 jet boat periodically. Before someone asks why... "Because I want to." Hopefully someone can point me in the...

I've seen modern Hemi/8HP swaps using Holley kit. Have seen cutting trans tunnel. Does anyone know if a Holley kit along w the trans tunnel being clearance for a GV O/D would allow an 8HP to fit? There are adapters and stand alone shift controllers already. Just looking at fit. Thanks.

I saw this on a fuel injection forum. But can work carburetors too. Uses a mechanical fuel pump that's been gutted and has a plate on the bottom for the fittings. Sorry it's on a Chevy.

A great resource for all the "what weight oil should I use" questions. https://www.dragzine.com/news/what-i-learned-today-bearing-clearances-vs-oil-viscosities/

'67 Coronet, fuel injected w in-tank pump, AN fittings on every junction both feed n return. PTFE braided hose so it is also vapor barrier. Factory vented cap. When I slow down from hwy speeds, I'll get a strong fuel smell in the car. The '67 does not have a vent hose or pressure equalization...

Quick question, I went to roll my rear windows down on my '67 Coronet. They ( both) only go down 1/2 way. I don't remember as a kid riding in the back seat if they went all the way down or not. Before I remove the panels, are they supposed to only go down 1/2 way? Thanks.

Well I bit the bullet and ordered one for my 383 stroked to 496. I got tired of pulling the electronic distributor and completely disassembling it, changing springs etc trying to get the curve right. Not posting this to get advice on "how" I should set up a mechanical advance. This is so I can...

Not sure if this is a suspension issue or exhaust issue. 1967 Coronet 4dr, 383 automatic. I changed out the front torsion bars to a road racing set and rear leafs to "HD" from Mancini's in '97. Car sat on suspension parked from '98 until last June. I've got deep transmission pan and TTI headers...

I've seen ads and I've seen posts where people say that their electric fans keep their engine cool "even" in 90° heat. For reference, 90° is not hot. We always say "my 600hp engine is cooled by 'x'". When we are driving, we are driving a typically higher compression engine but using only about...
