    Which converter between these 2?

    I just need opinions. I already spoke to Hughes tech and its funny how the tech guy is on the fence between these 2 just like I am. Here are the car details, these things are not changing other then maybe headers eventually. I just need to replace a convertor that is causing me trouble. 1966 B...

    Please help with ongoing driveline vibration noise

    Hello all. I’ve read hundreds of threads here on BB’s and no one has had my exact issue. I’ve thrown thousands of dollars at this problem (outlined below) and have not gained a penny’s worth of improvement. ANY ideas and welcome. Thank you in advance and sorry for the long read. 1966 Coronet...

    Slip Yoke Problem

    Hoping for some help from someone who has had this same issue... It's very strange. I'm trying to chase down a 38-40mph hum/vibration that occurs only at float/cruise, When the drive line is loaded either accelerating or decelerating (it has 3.73's) there is no noise. So far I have had the...

    Advance cam? Intake valve clearance?

    I have 2 questions to see if advancing my cam is doable and worth while. Here is all the dirty details of the combo that I put together in the middle of last summer. It’s in a 1966 Coronet, just a cruise car, never will see the strip or above 75mph. I think I picked pretty well as far as...

    AVS2 possible problem?

    I have a brand new out of the box AVS2 that I installed on my 383. After starting the engine and breaking in the cam, I needed to set up the throttle cable and throttle pressure. When doing this I alway take off the clip and short rod from the accelerator pump to avoid pumping the engine full...

    Cam and Springs for a totally street 383 build

    I finally got decent core parts to get started on a /6 to 383 swap in my Dad’s 1966 Coronet post. He’s the ‘customer’ so I have to make it what he wants. Just like a lot of us here (I assume) we’ve all over-cammed engines and also put together great parts, but parts that don’t work well...

    How bad did I screw up my head choice?

    I’m doing a big-block swap into my 1966 Coronet. I found a 1966 440 out of a Chrysler (pad stamped B440 12 29) I’m doing this as a driver/ essentially stock pump gas car so it’s just going to get re-ringed/ bearing/ gaskets (it has no measurable ridge). The heads were off it to inspect the...
