Great Thanks Bob

I have seen these tools that look like a cordless drill that are used to remove lug nuts from the wheel of a car. I don't know what they are called nor where to look for them. Would these be at Sears or Home Depot type places? My local Sears is closing and are having a sale this weekend so I...

You could also check out either Passon or Brewer's Performance. They have complete kits of good quality parts, are very knowledgeable and helpful at a fair price. You know what you are getting when you deal with them. If you have any questions they can help http://www.brewersperformance.com/...

I had mine on a dyno twice, once before with the 383 and once after with the hemi. This was done in a shop not a car show. The dyno was used to optimize the tune on the engine and was pretty useful. When I put the hemi in the car and they did a few pulls the guy said he planned about 4 hours...

Can you provide an example?

I knew that and I think that was in the article. My point was that it has nothing to do with US citizens nor the 2nd amendment. If you don't like Snopes try this http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2010/jun/09/chain-email/chain-e-mail-says-un-treaty-would-force-us-ban-con/ My...

I am kind of surprised that this keep getting revived even though it has been shown to be false several years ago. Note in the link below that the administration specifically protected the 2nd amendment in the treaty discussions. Also note that the administration cannot enter into a treaty...

Thanks. I actually had that saved but had not looked at it for a long time. A lot of info on the site.

What is FBO?

My car is not even close to original. Few people at a car show would know that but a Mopar guy would pick it up instantly. When I bought the car it had a 1969 383 in it but it was not numbers matching. No surprise there, not many of these cars were babied when they were new. I really didn't...

Passon or Brewer

Good luck to you and Dutch. I am not near as exotic as you guys but I was shocked at how much money I could throw at my hemi project. In fact I ended up keeping my 23 spline tranny and 8 3/4 rear because I had to stop the bleeding somewhere. I only drive on the street so far and both have...

That 5-speed is not available yet but will be soon. Probably a six month lead time. There is a long thread on Moparts on this issue, it's a brand new designed from the ground up item and it has taken much longer to develop than Passon initially imagined. The cost is pretty high ~$4300. I...

Very cool!

Mancini is another possibility. I bought a ton of stuff from them when I installed my hemi. I personally don't like cork gaskets and have rubber valve cover gaskets for my engine. http://chucker54.stores.yahoo.net/sthevacosp.html

Then you could get your car on overhaulin' where they ruin and ugly up a muscle car a week. A Chip Foose tribute.

Interesting thought all. The fuel pump rod is brand new and I know it was pumping because I was pushing fuel through the fuel line when it was disconnected from the carbs. It may not be pumping enough fuel. I didn't check this last time but the time before the squirters were not pumping fuel...

Bob, I have been running this week but saw this post a few days ago. Kudos my friend. You certainly deserve the honor.

Well the car is running now. It is a little embarrassing actually. I did tear the front down and found no problem. The dots were lined up, the chain was in good shape and the distributor gear looked new. I took a second look at the distributor cap which I replaced when it wouldn't start and...

John, Here is what I used. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/crt-p74029/overview/ Note the hose barbs are 3/8". I put it next to the tank in-line and in front of the mechanical pump. I thought this worked well but now I think I would have used a pump with more capacity if I were doing it...
