are these things really worth money???

good luck

i am assuming that when using an air dam such as this that the valance isnt needed. am i correct? thanks all sb

thanks for the help Site. i ordered the factory springs from msa, installed the cam, and the springs are binding. so now i get to buy new springs and seals. whoo-hoo!

isnt there a tag on the door post?

i have used it to pinpoint the spot where the leak is.

have you ever tried florescent dye? put a bottle in the oil and a bottle in the radiator, run it for a few miles, and then shine a black light on it. leaks will stand out like a sore thumb http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/supercool-u-v-leak-detect-dye-9497/10639818-P?searchTerm=leak+detectors

i was told that i need new retainers with those springs. did you need new keepers as well? or will the factory ones work? thanks

thank you

anyone know where to get valve springs for a .500 lift cam? thanks all sb

what is the factory gear ratio for a 72 4 speed R180 rear end? i have read that it is 3.36-1, but my haynes manual and a couple other place say 3.90-1. i really dont want to tear the cover off if i dont have to thanks all sb

pb blaster works well

if the seller hasnt paid non-op fees, you could get shafted on the fines. id be willing to bet he hasnt. i bought a power wagon that had been sitting for a couple years. the fines were more than i paid for the truck

have a picture? if it is the carbs that are seized up, you could soak them in carb cleaner or paint thinner for a few days and slowly move the linkage. they should eventually free up

only if it is an auto transmission. manual trans doesnt matter

thanks. i finally found the correct one here https://www.dellorto.co.uk/product-category/weber-carburettors-parts/carburettor-parts-weber-carburettors-parts/

i am planning on using one of these http://www.jegs.com/i/FAST/244/170402/10002/-1 1 sensor for the front 3 and 1 for the rear 3 cylinders. it should make tuning easy. if you wanted really simple http://www.jegs.com/i/Innovate-Motorsports/540/3844/10002/-1

seriously? what car should they use?

its a BEAUTIFUL THING!!!!! cylinder head is done as of today!! whoo hoo!! its been 2 months and all looks great! all told, with 1 chamber being repaired due to pitting, new 280 valves, springs, seals, retainers and keepers, and machine work, there went $900+/- next step is to figure the chamber volume and compression ratio and what lash pads i need.

couple more little things. door sills finished. these were in bad shape to start with, but the wrinkle finish hides most of it. the fresh-air vent hoses? were in sad shape as well, having been chewed on by rodents. covered the bad spots with liquid rubber, and then some plastic-dip, they look ok now. end result

thats almost pretty enough to post in the boobs thread

i made all mine double flare. everything works as it should, no leaks

external snap rings are cheap and easily available

very nice
