    re: Manual steering box

    The manual boxes have a high temp high pressure grease that is not a fluid. If you search the toppic you will find a good thread that a few guys talked about what grease they used.

    Need some opinons !!

    My first muscle car was a 1966 Satelite with a 273. We beat the puss tons out with a BFH and it took some work to get them out! From the garage we picked it up out of I could see the ocean. Great view and the body was in good shape but the engine was toast.

    Ethanol gas... advice?

    Elastomers, timing, tuning (more fuel per given air flow). I think if you check some of the other area's there may be some topics and people that are racing with straight ethanol.

    pivot shaft kit--what else needed

    It all depends on the car. I got a 67 Charger manual off of ebay years ago in print form for around 30 bucks but I let it go with the car when I sold it. For the 66 Charger I have now I got a digital copy for 10 or 20 bucks.
