    Don't just bolt on heads out of the box

    Same thing here with a water pump housing. Water temp sensor port was completely plugged with sand.

    Cool stealth Bluetooth receiver/amp

    I don't, I went with the retrosound replacement head unit in my car, but I have buddies in another vintage car forum that are starting to install them. So far they are pretty impressed.

    Sea Foam vs...

    I’ve never done it, but have seen people use 2-cycle mix in the carb to add some lubrication if an engine hasn’t been run in a while. Something like 40:1.

    Identify these please....lol.

    I asked the same question when I removed mine, it was bolted to the driver's frame rail near the firewall. The answer I got then was it had something to do with the column shift (mine had been long-converted to floor shift).

    Removing broken drill bit or bolt from a carburetor with Alum

    I have done this before, but not with a carb. I used alum, but I also read that nitric acid will work too. Alum will not hurt the aluminum, but you will need to take care not to get it on other steel parts. You can speed up the process by keeping it in a warm place, or point a light at it...

    Insurance for a real weekend classic driver ?

    Hagerty asks several questions about modifications that other companies don't, and will raise your rates accordingly. One of the questions was 'have you added 50HP or more' or something like that. Added $200/yr to the quote.

    Spare tires in bone yard

    Modern Ford Mustangs have a 5 on 4.5" bolt pattern. Toyota 5-lug pattern is the same too.

    Improving power brakes

    Probably not what you're in the market for, but this was featured on a wheeler dealers episode, they installed it on a 65 Coronet. Complete electric power brake kit: https://www.speedwaymotors.com/Compact-Electric-Brake-Power-Booster-Master-Cylinder-Disc-Disc,8335.html It's spendy and it...

    PSA : please carry an extinguisher...

    Jay Leno did a segment on these, he's a believer. That was the first I saw of them, but it looks like a really good product. I really like the idea of never having to have them serviced. How many of us forget to get that done? (I sure do). $80 for one, and no way a 5lb extinguisher will go...

    Whats everyone working on?

    If you're not going for perfection I'd bet you can do a pretty good job yourself. The first time I picked up a spray gun was to do my engine bay, and while it's definitely not perfect, it came out much better than I thought it would. I bought a couple cheap ($20-$25) spray guns off Amazon, one...

    Whats everyone working on?

    Finally got the steering wheel and driver's seat in so I could position the shifter. Radiator and fans in for a test fit to locate the trans cooler:

    Magnesium anode to stop the rust

    I think you might have some success if you put the anode on or very near areas you want to protect, but no way a chunk of Mg up front would protect the rear from corrosion. The reason it works better on boats is they are all in the same electrolytic bath (seawater). Most of these types of rust...
