    Strange discoloration on header tubes

    Thanks all, I pulled the #4 and #2 plug wires and #4 is cooked for sure. I'll see if I can modify the plug wire brackets to give more space between the wires and header tubes. Not much space on #4 between the plug and shock tower. Maybe some of those fiberglass boot protectors would help.

    Strange discoloration on header tubes

    Header primary tubes on cylinders 2 and 4 have some strange discoloration on the header tubes. very close to where the plug wires are. I have angled ceramic plug boots on all other wires but it was too tight on these cylinders, so I used regular firecore rubber boot 90 deg wires. Never seen...

    Someone please help me understand this ?

    The silicone and steel/silicone gaskets don’t need anywhere near the 15 ft-lbs. 4-5 ft lbs was all that I needed for the Moroso blue silicone trans pan gasket. Some of the silicone-only gaskets say 3-3.5 ft-lbs. If it’s not leaking, you already won. ;)

    have an auto thinking over converting to a manual

    I'm a ways off of doing my own, but have been doing some research. I got a quote from American Powertrain for a TKX 5-speed, hyd throwout bearing, manual pedal assembly, shifter, clutch, clutch master cyl, bellhousing, fluids and everything for $7k. All name-brand stuff, too.

    What size and thread is this?

    I have the 440 source water pump housing and used the American Autowire kit. It comes with the sensor (1/4" NPT) and 2 bushings; 3/8" and 1/2". I used the small bushing, so 3/8" worked for me.

    Yes, reverse pattern manual. Forgot to mention that!

    1968 Charger NSS, should I get ground signal in Park?

    1968 Charger, I believe it is the original trans. It has the 1-post NSS connector. All the wiring is new, but I don't think it's a wiring problem. New shifter and shifter cable. It's a big block car if that matters. I was trying to start it for the first time in a long while but could not...

    A Public service announcement for 4-speed owners

    Honest question, but how are you planning to address this? Just swap in a new thrust bearing and button it back up? Or is more needed to make it right?

    727 trans pan

    I bought this Moroso unit and their 93110 gasket. I must've gotten it on sale because I definitely didn't spend $250. It is a nice piece with a rigid flange, good reviews. I just got the trans back in the car and haven't loaded it with fluid yet, so no personal experience there...

    727 rebuild cost and recommendations

    Thanks guys. I cleaned up my inbox. The transmission shop has a great reputation here locally as being fair in general. They do a lot of late-model work but have carved out a niche working on classics, too. Talking to some other folks with vintage cars, more than a couple mentioned I should...
