I have a 85 chrysler that I am trying to do away with the electronic junk. I have heard for years that is one wire in that wad of wires under the breather that you can cut and it disconnects the whole shitaree. I have put a dist. in with a vaccum advance, and a different carb to do away with...

Grabber, the one on the left is from a 63 or 64 b, the one on the right is more than likely from a 65 or later, 1/2 inch difference in the spring length from the eye to center on the 63-64. my 64 is a twenty inch and the 65's were 20.5. Dave.

All the going wrong stuff got over with the stuck idler and the spilled oil, put the rear sump pan on with out a hitch, big milodon pump, then the lines to the pump still have to do the radiator hose and then oil. the only other thing was the pump shaft was to long by an eighth of an inch, wafer...

All righty then, pneumatic hammer wins!!! went out to the shop and beat on it with my 2 lb er, then with the four lb er, nothing,, s;;t gonna happen with the air! took about .25 of a second to get it out of the frame, chucked it up in the vise and went to work on it, took about 15 seconds...

The high volume pump that is on the car now is a quarter of an inch shorter than the pump that I bought? with the extra plate and the cover plate the assemblly will be on the order of an inch or so longer. there is a steel mount on that side of the engine, it itsself is not in the way but I...

I cannot tell you which oil to use, I can however suggest what not to use, I changed my oil about 200 miles ago, I can sit in the car warming it up and you would think that it had 500,000 miles on it instead of the 600 or so that is on it!! smoke pouring out the back like the shop was on...

Yea, one is a little heavier than the other, the springs are the only pieces that will fit my car. as soon as I check with Kasey, I will know something. Dave.
