    Flow Kooler Water Pumps & Thermostats

    The Flow Kooler water pumps and high flow thermostats are supposed to (likely work) increase coolant flow. Has anyone ran a Flow Kooler setup in a big block & what were your results? Thanks!

    Spare tire.

    The spare should be the same diameter as your rear tires so you won’t burn out your sure-grip clutches

    Tips on lifting in rear diff

    On a Jack & lift it SLOW. Road Roberts idea of strapping it to the Jack is a GREAT idea. I think I used a transmission adapter for my floor Jack (1-1/2 square)

    Power Brake Booster for '68 Super Bee

    Sounds like the proportioning valve, or more likely, the rear brake hood off valve is stuck

    Eyebrow and tail trim panel restoration/stripping

    IF you can find it, a paint stripper with methylene chloride (aka dichloromethane) work best (causes cancer too). My 2nd choice would be a 1:1 mix of toluene or xylene with MEK (methyl ethyl ketone)

    Machining New Intake Angle - 440 Engine in Car

    A shop did a different set of heads for me, so I didn’t see the guides or heads. The guides were original 1971 that were knurled in the mid 1980’s (fyi)

    '71 road runner 383 purple cam? - how can I find the model/specs with distributor removed?

    I ran a 1980’s 292/509 and it had one tiny pink spot, between lobes, near the front of the cam where you could see it, over some purple paint. Besides the lobes, the whole can is purple. I would bet you have the “Hemi grind” purple shaft as listed above…..if it’s tough to keep it idling, maybe...

    2 step with footbrake automatic

    Maybe a momentary on switch tapped into the brake light switch?

    What is my ignition problem?

    “Might” be the blue ignition wire (?). The spade connector was only 1/2 way in….so “maybe” Update - that wasn’t it. Engine still cuts out
