    To shroud or not to shroud...

    Ideally you want one third of the fan out of the shroud. Doesn't matter about the distance, fan to radiator, as long as it's not too close, one inch maximum. One inch clearance from the end of the fan blades to the shroud opening seems to work.

    Function test for fan clutch

    A fan shroud can make a big difference. You want 1/3 of the fan sticking out of the shroud toward the engine.

    1968 Plymouth GTX, frame off resto.......Really ??? Again ???

    That's the Silk Purse out of a Pigs Ear saying. Watching a Boyd Coddington show years ago, they were waiting on the rear taillights to come back from the chrome plater for a beautiful red and white '55 Chevy. It was the last piece to finish the restoration as the owner was showing up at...

    Polara has shrunk......

    I know the feeling and I'm like 5' 7". I could use a little more leg room with my seat all the way back in my '62. Makes you think about how short the average person was back then.

    ATF flush for the crankcase??

    3.9s are also known for broken valve springs and broken exhaust manifold hardware which causes a leaking gasket. Both will have the ticking noise.

    ATF flush for the crankcase??

    Back in the day we would use Rislone, a couple or three quarts and run the engine for awhile. Like stated previously, it did loosen up some sludge in a 258 that wasn't getting any top end lubrication and resulted in a bad rod knock. It really cleaned out the sludge on a high mileage engine...

    A Stripped Bolt Question With A Twist...

    Sounds like you're talking about the velocity joint at the transfer case. If you're just replacing the U joint at the axle can't you just slide the shaft apart and leave the transfer case end bolted up? Put the other three bolts back in.

    Help. Engine shakes badly at idle.

    Use a inferred gun and see if you have a "cold" cylinder, one that's not firing.

    What brand control arm bushings?

    Just installing those offset bushings will make it leave like that! I'm getting a set! :lol: (I love that car!)

    What brand control arm bushings?

    I was hesitant on using these because of the hole being offset and the lack of material on the one side of the hole. Sounds like you've put them to the test. I went with the regular upper bushings and when doing the alignment the passenger side had a good bit of positive caster but the driver...
