    Windshield molding clip height?

    1966 Satellite. I'm going with option "c". Pick hammer and dolly to make it work. Modify the pocket on the cowl. Nine more to go.

    Interesting '67 GTX tailpipe routing

    3" TTi on my '66 Satellite. They fit with some tweaking but are really tight!

    Windshield molding clip height?

    Yes, AMD panel. I'll have to do some more figuring on it tomorrow and see if it will work if I just attach it next to the recess like it's sitting in the picture. Other options would be to trim the bottom of the clip or maybe cut a slot to drop it down into. Ain't it fun when new parts don't work?

    Windshield molding clip height?

    I need to know the right position to attach the windshield molding clips. If I put them in the depressions where I think are supposed to be, the molding will way high compared to the cowl. If I put them next to the depression all the way down, then the molding will be flush with the cowl. My old...

    AMD cowl?

    multiple tabs on the old cowl, only three on the new cowl and not the same angle. I did see a picture of what was supposed to be an original cowl that only had three tab. Maybe a difference in where it was manufactured?

    AMD cowl?

    AMD cowl for 1966-70 b-bodies does not have the tabs that go up into the bottom of the windshield gasket to hold it in place. The old one has about a dozen tabs. The new one has three that are at a 45 degree angle instead of 90 degree like the old ones .I can modify it if necessary and make the...

    My friends mistake

    The answer on any title question is to talk to your state DMV, or look on their website. Laws are different in every state.

    B Body exhaust kits

    I priced custom header back exhaust at a local shop and it was about the same price as the TTI kit. Of course, that was installed and the TTI kit was not. I got the TTI kit and am pretty satisfied with it. The three inch pipes (that you don't need with a 318) are a very tight fit and needed a...

    Hot Rod Drag Week Registration starts Today at 9am!

    I got in. Debated about it for a long time this year. It's a thousand mile drive from Iowa just to get to the starting line. Finally decided that at 69 years old I don't know how long I'll want or be able to keep doing it, so do it while I can!

    Comp cam stories!

    Comp Cams customer service story. I ordered a complete cam kit. Cam, lifters, springs, chain, about $1600 worth of stuff. I was told it would ship in three weeks. Four weeks later I got an e-mail saying it had been delayed and would ship in three weeks. Four weeks later got an e-mail saying my...

    Another 2.94 vs 3.55 thread

    I drove 2300miles for Drag Week this year, 3.55 gear, 496 stroker, four speed. 60mph is 2600rpm which seems pretty comfortable. 12 mpg for the week.

    Baseline jet size

    I've got a very similar engine combination with a Holley 950hp. Currently running #67 primary jets, # 78 secondary. Idle air bleeds #82, high speed #28. Primary power valve is a 10.5, secondary 6.5. I've got an AFR gauge on it and with this setup it is a little rich at cruise, I'll probably go...

    Just weighed the Dodge.

    Ran my '66 Satellite over the scale at IRP last week. With me in it and half a tank of gas 3850. Figure 210 lbs for the driver and 60 lbs of gas = 3580

    Shiny Dash Knob Inserts

    I used a dab of "Shoe Goo" on the back of mine.

    Question for Holley tuning gurus

    Accelerator pump is pretty much zero clearance at idle speed, definitely no slack at part throttle. And it's such a slight throttle movement that any pump shot would be small and brief. It's not a momentary lean, it stays lean until I lift on the throttle. Waiting for air bleeds to get here...

    Question for Holley tuning gurus

    currently running a 10.5 power valve in the primary which is about 1.5 to 2 below idle vacuum. At the throttle position/speed I'm talking about showing about 13-14 inches vacuum.

    Question for Holley tuning gurus

    Carb is an older 950hp on a 383 with a 496 stoker kit. Motor shouldn't really matter, this is more of a generic question. What's happening is when at cruise, about 2500 rpm, I've got the air fuel ratio in the high 13s', set by adjusting the main jets. But when I accelerate slightly, like going...

    Trim removal

    I was just wondering where the rear nut was and how to access it. Unfortunately, the front stud is already missing, so I'll have to get creative when reattaching.

    1966 Belvedere II shifter question

    On my Inland I eliminated the rubber bushings where the shifter bolts on and machined some spacers so it's a solid mount. Cleaned and lubed, adjusted correctly. Made a big difference.

    hoosier 26x8.50-15 on a 66 B-body

    It's been a while but thought I should post my results. 26x8.5-15 Hoosier slicks mounted on 8.5 wide rims with 4.5 backspacing will fit. The outside sidewall looks like it would be real close to rubbing if the suspension was fully compressed, but if the suspension travels that far when the...
