Got a video when the car drives away with the new owner, not the best quality, will try to fix that. https://youtu.be/n8swTxqZ5Js

Hi, I am back! Yes Mr Superfreak, first guy got it and no bargain, we became friends too so I have been riding more in the car since I sold it then when I owned it! The car had some issue with timing and so but he was able to work it out and the 383 now sings like ever before. He bought a set of...

I made it to the finish line! Hi everybody! This will be one of the last threads in this project. This weekend I decided to finish my car and sell it. 10 min after the add came out the first guy calls and he lives only 15 min from here. I open up the door to the garage and I could hear his...

Just got a mail from Don at FBO who sold me the plate and spring kit and here is his advise for me: Start with 20 degree initial timing, put in the plate so it is limiting the advance to 14 degree, that gives me a total of 34 degree advance. Try to keep the springs hard enough to reach full...

OK, thanks for all the help, I found a FBO plate and spring kit here in Sweden! Will have it on tuesday. A friend of mine has a Sun distributor tester but he lives to far away but it was a cool machine, The next issue was the vacuum advance, it is marked with a 9 and I guess it means 18 degree...

Hi, Before I pulled the engine from the car I took some measures of the mechanical advance and it was not so good, 10 degree initial was 10 degree even at 2200 rpm, then it started to move and at 3500 rpm it was 34 degree and at 4000-4500 I reached 36 degrees. The car did not ran as good as I...

I prefer this type of stud remover, the one you twist in is expanding in the bolt making it stuck even more, this one does also expand but not as much as the twist type. http://img.tradera.net/images/654/202416654_ea7a7263-2526-414d-b285-a23bd5175171.jpg

Did the same thing this weekend, pulled off three studs, took a very small drill and center it perfectly on the stud, workin my way up in drill sizes until I took a drill that was just large enogh to pass in a threaded hole. then I took a square screwdriver that I hammered into the hole and...

Just read all the 21 pages and it is a masterpiece! The 1970 modell is so cool and I really like the green color, if I ever travel to Australia visiting you and see this car live will top the to do list, on second and third place is the great barrier reef and the Sydney opera house... :notworthy:

My 516 has the 2.08/1.74 setup, pretty tight in the guides too, will just grind in the cleaned valves, throw in new seals and put them back together. The previous owner did some kind of restoration of the engine but it needed some minor adjustments, for example put the pistons in the right...

Hi Payton, could you please help a poor guy overseas and take a couple of pictures of the tracks and maybe take some measures for me as well? Or take the pictures with a scale or ruler (don't know the correct name)? Those tracks are impossible to find here...

Here is some pictures of the progress so far, The steering is ready, the collars too, cut the gear indicator off and did some grinding, ended up pretty well. Have not been able to mount the seats yet, waiting for a console and will see if it is possible to have it together with the quicksilver...

Thanks for all the help, I spent a couple of hours working on the heads, damn it was a dirty job!

Got a set of 516 and a torker intake that is far from perfect when it comes to port match, is it worth the time to make them match or shall I leave it as it is? Power gain 10-15 hp? 383 with a 284H

OK, thanks Dodger, a little to much money for me right now. BTW, I still have the tracks from my bench, does anyone knows if the outer track from a bucket seat is the same as the outer on the bench?

Trying to install a pair of bucket seats from a -74 challenger in my Coronet but I need to know the height of the tracks, the one on the e-body seats are way to low and I was planning to make some spacers for them, I can´t find tracks from a -70 here in Sweden so you are my last hope... Try...

Ooops, my thread has dropped to page five, time for an update. Got an idea of a bucket seat car with a console and floor shorter would be more fun, Spauldo had a console that is on its way over seas, bought a B&M Quicksilver, if the console doesn't fit I will keep it on the shelf, prio one is...

Looking for a steering column for a 1970 B-body, floorshift. OR just the collars from that. And if those are impossible to find, mayby someone got a set of collars from a column shift car?

Thanks, I have found a coupler now and the ad is changed, now I want the steering column from a floor shift car or the collars from that, could even work with the collars from the column shift car, I found a thread on a-bodies how to cut of and make them look like a floor shift collar.

Coupler bought! Regards Joakim
