Even after all that,I'm still not un-pissed. OK,gentlemen...How difficult is it to replace the throttle shaft seal on a Torqueflite? What was a very slight leak has turned into a @#$%ing gusher,and it looks like it's at the t.s. seal. The manual really isn't thorough in its explanation,so I...

Ok...a discussion with a buddy started this. I've got a set of Six-Pack(1.094" pin) rods and a good used set of Venolia +.030 pistons with .990" pins. The question,as you've figured out, is this: Can the larger pin rods be bushed for a .990 pin safely? Would the extra material in the bushing...

Here's the deal... Guy on CL has a set of Hookers,PN5903,1-7/8" for 67-up B-body with a B/RB mill. He pulled them off a 1970 RR440-6bbl. and told me that he had no clearance/fit issues. I'd like to try them in the '64 with the planned 440(or maybe 493...);they're one of the only 1-7/8" pipes...

...But here goes... I've got two choices for the ol' 413 and would like opinions,please. The mill: '64 Chrysler 413,unknown miles,originally 340hp version. 2.08"/1.60" valve heads I'd guess about 9.5:1 CR still. 750 Holley...

OK;question(s) time... As I stated in another thread,I'm tired of the clatter of my rocker arms on the 413. What I've got here are a set of Crane ductile iron adjustable rocker arms,Crane 3/8" solid 9.125" pushrods;destined to go with the OEM(original) 413/340hp cam...

Yes;I did search old threads for info,but...I was wondering if I can hook up my positive wire on my electric choke to the "INSTR"(instrument panel?) fuse on the fuse box? I don't have an extra "accessories" fuse spot. I tried the cigar lighter-no good,as it's ALWAYS hot. I'm already using the...

Moving along with the further adventures of the Polish Caveman and Sabrina... So,I went to install spark plugs after the header installation. Well...no problems with #'s 1 and 7(haven't got to the other side yet),but there ain't no way that they're going to clear on #'s 3 and 5. No room for...

So,I went to put a '91 Dakota/360 starter on the Sport Fury,cuz da headers hit on the OEM big-*** starter. Got it into position and...it won't seat! It seems that the nose(?) hits the inside of the trans case,and the solenoid contacts on the block. A comparison: I wanted to see if it fit...

Kind of two(three?) questions in one thread;gotta economize where you can... First,below are the headers I plan to install on the '64. Supposed to be Hedman's(1-3/4" o.d.);they look like their stuff. Supposed to be for 62-5 B's with a big block. OK,they look like what I've seen for that app...

OK guys;it's looking like I'll have to replace the trans in the '64.:yes: The cost to rebuild it would rival the cost of a good aftermarket unit and I was planning on going to a later style unit anyway. My question: What driveshaft should I look for,as far as an OEM unit? It's got a 489 c.s...

Moving along quite nicely on the rear axle assembly. The pig is in the housing(another thread...) and we're ready to install the backing plates,axles,brakes,etc. Which way does the metal seal that goes between the backing plate and the housing flange go on-raised area towards the housing or the...

Hey folks;need an answer to "what is this piece?" It came off the axle shaft-one of them-that were getting new bearings installed on. The problem is the seal(can't find a listing for one-though I found a PDF file that may help) and the threaded sleeve arrangement that either holds the seal in or...

All right now;getting the new rear axle together to replace the original unit in the '64. Still haven't found a puller to get the old axles out,and on your advice,just found a later unit. New axle bearings are here,decided to just run the 3.23's in the 489 case for now(it's ready to bolt in)...

Found a '77 727;worth modifying? First;HAPPY EASTER! Hope everyone has safe journeys to the relative's houses and wherever you travel. Eat well,laugh heartily,but remember the solemn nature of the day. Now,the questions: Picked up a trans yesterday at a sale;it is a 727,and has "1977 400"...

Will original '64 axles mate up with a 489 case Sure-Grip,as far as splines go? The original r&p have noticeable play,and since the car's up on stands for brake work,I may as well look at replacing the center section. Which means I'll be looking for another 489 case for the 3.91 gears I planned...

OK,I seek the advice of the wise sages of the FBBO. I am not worthy,I am not worthy... Subject:'62 Max Wedge vs. 906 vs. 452 vs ?? heads on a street driven(with occasional track use) car with a 440. 34-3500 elbows weight. Intended CR of no more than 11:1,but no less than 10:1. Intended cam...
