    Father/Son 1968 Coronet Project

    Glade to see the combo. It was great fun building this with my young son. Best advice is to make a schedule and be realistic. I had 1,200 hours in our build. Make it great again.

    TKX Conversion - SST Supplied Hydraulic Clutch Components

    No issues on the throw out bearing but my kit was SST with McLeod hydro. The above conversation is the slave cylinder alignment on the firewall to pedal.

    TKX Conversion - SST Supplied Hydraulic Clutch Components

    Go Wylwood and look at previous threads on how much pedal that you want. .625” for a softer feel and longer stroke or .750” for stiffer pedal and short throw. .750” is in my sons car. Now, to be fair the OBD slave failed in 900 miles. The replacement Wylwood went 10,000 miles and developed a...

    Auto paint store mixed spray paint ?

    I was not ready to buy my paint and guns when I needed to paint the engine bay. I went with these guys for the rattle can base/clear and it turned out fine with a perfect match. See the pic with Q1; PPG was from the paint store and the Auto was rattle can. All that being said, if I did it...

    Tremec TKX 5-Speed Conversion

    The larger one was the correct one. I am not sure which was which but they are different sizes.

    Tremec TKX 5-Speed Conversion

    Greg, I am with you. I have put the TKX in under the car once and on the motor out of the car once. 2 days the first time because i have learned to shut it down when my temper gets the best of me. Stop, punt, and try again the next day. It was that last 1/2” that hung me up. It turns out...

    Tremec TKX 5-Speed Conversion

    Maybe check the SST book on the clutch. I think the clutch needs to hit the stop plate when it is fully out(just a hair of slack. This makes the clutch pedal height what it is. You would need to chase the brake pedal and I do not remember if that can be adjusted or not. If you adjust the...

    Who has some some tips for patching an asphalt driveway?

    I have about 6000 sf of asphalt so I have done it all. For the most presentable results, square up the hole to be patched. A blob of patch will always look like a blob of patch. A composite blade on any skill saw will work so you do not need to rent a chop saw. The best end result (most pain...

    What is the correct WIX "long" oil filter number?

    Extra filtration room with the larger filter and some additional cooling with the increased capacity. 5 to 6 quarts is a 20% increase which allows more dwell time in the sump where the heat removal occurs.

    What is the correct WIX "long" oil filter number?

    The long one gets you 6 quarts with the factory pan. Very tight and I have to loosen the fan shroud to change the oil but I want the 6 quarts. This is with a Wizard aluminum and shroud. Factory radiators may be different.

    TREMEC TKX fitment verified!

    Again, I got caught in the change and the TKO’s and TKX’s became unavailable for 6-7 months. I had SST send me everything they could so I could keep moving forward including the interior. The TKX comes out and the old templates are useless. When I did my original research, SST had TKO’s ready...

    TREMEC TKX fitment verified!

    ‘68 Coronet with TKX here. No mods to the tunnel are required less the hole for the shifter which is centered and not in the 4 speed location. It may need a hammer bump or two but that is it. For a non console car, the sheet metal cap will be needed to provide a flat for the shifter boot and...

    When the juice IS worth the squeeze

    Day one vs today; A three year span. It has been on the road for almost two years now and he is enjoying every minute of it. At the time, I was not so sure that those 20 hour weekends to meet a 14 month resto schedule was worth it.

    Lowering rear end - what's the proper way?

    The front spring drop bracket worked well for me and then you have the option to go back up.

    Looks like my shaft was 58 7/8”.

    Tremec TKX 5-Speed Conversion

    I need to correct the above post and will. The .750” slave gives the harder pedal and shorter stroke. The .625” is what SST provides and is a longer stroke and softer pedal. The larger diameter shaft moves the same fluid volume over a shorter stroke. Here is the .625” model. Should be...
