I removed the engine bracket, bolted the motor mount to the bracket and then drilled a 3/8" hole through both the mount and bracket. Countersunk the motor mount side for a flat head cap screw, and then used a locking nut on the engine bracket side, and allowed about 0.010" clearance between the...

I used the Dakota Digital fan controller (the older version without bluetooth). I was able to just tap into the factory sending unit wire and the controller can be calibrated to work with any sensor. I'm don't know if it works with the factory mechanical gauge regulator? My Instrument voltage...

Nice paint job . Lately I though the prices of the cars have been going up, and really it's mostly inflation.

Problem with higher education is the government subsidizing it. Same with health care costs. If students were paying with their own money the schools would have to charge reasonable fees. When you pay with other peoples money there is no cost constraints.

I'm no expert on the history, but from my reading this is what I recall. I looked up the production numbers. I don't recall the original car pricing, but they were expensive. Read that they were more expensive than the Aston Martian of the time? Jensen was a coach builder starting in the...

I think the axle is a tapered axle dana 44. Lot of unusual parts/options for a car built in the 1960s to 1976 Rack & pinion steering, 4 wheel disc brakes, power everything; windows, door locks, gas filler door, antenna... I put a bid on the car. I think it has a reserve? It needs some work...

For the diesel guys, Mobil is having their spring rebate on Delvac oil Just ordered 5-gallon of the Extreme 15W40 from Summit Racing for $95.99 and the rebate on it is $25 although usually don't see the rebate card until fall. That works out to around $14.20/gallon or $3.55/quart with the...

Speaking of Jensens, there is a '73 Interceptor on Bring A Trailer. 1973 Jensen Interceptor Mk III

One thing I didn't expect about the Jensen is that there is a good amount of replacement / reproduction parts for them. Just some parts are pricey and might need to be shipped from the UK

I'm glad to be able to get the parts being produced. We all wish they were less expensive. If AMD or other manufacturers of these parts went out of business it would make finding parts even more difficult and expensive. When I was working on my friends '67 Mustang, I noticed that parts for...

Yes, a 1973. No louvers in the hood. The white car attached. I usually see the louvered hoods on 1974+ A few months ago, I was moving the Jensen out of the garage, and the left side front brake hose blew out, so even more leaks and things to fix on the car. I don't know a ton about the Jensen...

I think the Keisler SS-700 5-Speed (made by Legend Gear and Transmission) was around $7,000 also and that was using the original 833 mechanical clutch pedals and linkage, but everything else was new, flywheel, clutch, pressure plate, transmission, driveshaft, trans support, and such. Had to cut...

I looked at Amazon to see when I bought my Deltron 4 bank Battery Tender that still works fine today. Ordered Dec 10, 2012. The price is nearly the same as it was 12 years ago, $184.95 on Amazon. I ordered it with some 25-foot extension cables to connect multiple vehicles in the shop.

A few years back, I worked a part time job for an autobody shop. They did alot of work for car rental companies and needed extra help picking up and returning the vehicles. Got paid per trip, so as long as they were busy, could make some extra money.

Was a long time ago when I got my short block from them. Chuck Senator was running the place before Mike took over.

Is Muscle Motors in Lansing, MI still around? I got my first 451 stroker 400 from them back in the 1990's

I like the look of the Magnum 500s on B-bodies. The ralleys look good on E-Bodies

The 5-pin uses the higher resistance resistor part of the dual ballast resistor. I think it is like 5-Ohms? On the 4-pin box, the 5 ohm power resistor is mounted inside the box. If I recall, the resistor is used in series with a zener diode to create a regulated voltage reference power supply...

I don't know the date code numbers, but the reverse/neutral switch is a 1971 and newer type, which means the shift selector rooster comb would have to be compatible with the switch.

Date coded case or what is inside it? Many older 727s have the '71 and newer pump/input shaft/stator support and wide band front drum
