    Rear wheel mud flaps.

    Has anyone put rear mud flaps on their car. I am getting some chips on the lower fender and wheel opening on the rear quarter panel. If you have then advice would be appreciated on the where you bought them. I don't think I need much of one just enough to stop rocks and grave from chipping off...

    383 just shut down while driving.

    Out for a cruse yesterday and while driving it started to spit and sputter then shut off. Could pump the pedal and it fires then dies. New Holley carb and showing fuel in the site glass on the bowl. Coil not that old and wonder if it may be the ECU box. I am lost. Had to have it towed home...

    440 source heads.

    Has anyone put a set of these heads on a 383. Directions state after installation fire up the motor and bring to running temp then let it cool down and retorque the heads. This is a bummer, but I guess it is what it is. More work :mad:. If you have these heads, how do they work for you. Thanks Russ.

    Blown head gasket.

    Well as you guys know I had radiator problems. After getting another one and putting it in on a short drive from my house to a friend's blew the upper radiator hose off. Let it cool down for three hours. He only lived two miles away. So put the hose back on and filled it up. Drove it home. A few...

    As you all know had radiator problems. After spending two weeks making the A/C compressor move back so I could get more clearance between the radiator and fan. Put one of those upper hose filters in to keep debris out of the radiator. Was getting fluid on my motor and the engine from a leak...

    Replaced radiator again.

    So, to say had to work really hard to get the A/C compressor moved back towards the motor to give me clearance enough. So, I could move the fan away from the radiator. After days of cutting on the A/C mounting bracket was able to get it moved back 3/4 inch. What a job it was the compressor...

    Door mirrors.

    Has anyone got a way to stop the mirrors from moving. Tried super glue but that did not work. They are just too loose. Can set them but when driving they move out of adjustment. All thoughts appreciated.

    QA1 struts.

    Had noticed a bump noise when turning left or right. While having the radiator out grabbed the passenger side strut and felt it move. So retorqued the bolts on both struts and at 45-foot lb.'s got quite a bit of movement before the torque wrench clicked. Guess things do loosen up after...

    Aluminum radiator.

    Now have an Aluminum radiator ordered from Classic industries. OER. Finding out that the core has moved closer to my fan and trying to find a happy medium for a spacer to fit. If I move it back too far then it will hit my A/C compressor. My wife said she did not know that there would be so much...

    Water leak near my E brake pedal.

    Well thought I had the problem solved. Water is accumulating in the curve of the dash near my E brake and dripping out on the carpet there. We really poured the urethane to gasket surface of the car for the front window. I know that everyone says it is leaking around the window gasket but just...
