There is a plastic gearset that runs the odometer drum. Speedo heads has to come out to be repaired.

The current Edelbrock AFB and AVS2 carbs have the dual bolt pattern on the base plate.

By the middle 1960s, the insulators were also stamped to match the inner structure of the hood panel itself. That, too, kind of answers the question, too.

(Decals or nameplates?)

You might need to retain the a/c evaporator core in its place in order to maintain the dash vent functions for ventilation? Otherwise, cap the lines and remove all of the compressor items from the motor. Might need some non-a/c pulleys? Just thinking, CBODY67

I would suspect these rubber-infused driveshafts were indeed to quieten some noise transfer and minimize any harmonics which the long tube would transfer/amplify. The OEMs used several methods, singularly or in combination, over the years. One is the driveshafts with the smaller end on the...

This is a different "two-piece driveshaft" than many are used to seeing. I'm wondering if this was some engineering experimentation that was supposed to make the car run smoother, or they were chasing some harmonic that the rubber dampened? Might even have been a pesky vendor that wanted to...

The original 350 B-block 2x4bbl Fury V-8 or 1958 had a cam with 252/252/.390 specs, which carried forward for several years in almost all B/RB motors, last used on the 383 2bbl of 1966. Going to something akin to the later 383/440 4bbl 256/260/.425 cam of 1966 would be a neat increase. Similar...

Would have to see if they can get the bare drum chucked into their electronic spin balancer.

Good job and way it was done. Years ago, a friend was going to get a leather steering wheel redone for his car. He was referred to a local guy who did upholstery for some of the higher-end sports car people. His recommendation was to remove all of the plastic that was disintegrating, then...

On the carburetor issue . . . the current carburetors are set-up for a throttle linkage that pulls. I believe your's might push? In that case, check out @Sir Dodge alot postings of how he adapter a modern Edelbrock to his Dodge 880 361. Remember, too, that your existing 2bbl is the front...

Drums need to be balanced just like wheels do. Wobble is different..

I was just thinking of things that would spin with the driveshaft. I'm suspecting that it does spin along with the driveshaft, with a stationary backing plate and frictions as the normal drum brakes have. Just some thoughts, CBODY67

Just stay away from the boosters sold by Summit, Jegs, and such. They are "universal fit" rather than OEM-exact fit. The "booster exchange" which resulted after the "Booster Dewey" retirement (same company, same employees, different location) is claimed to be the best rebuild option. By...

The 16" wheels did not become "popular" until the later 1990s or so, after the OEMs went to them. FWIW Somebody was building some aftermarket "similar to" Hurst 15" wheels a year or so ago. With gold or silver inset areas. Since that time, American Racing came out with their Magnum 500-esc...

Width of the radiator core? 22" or 26"?

Is the "bigger red wire" supplying the ign switch with power from the bulkhead connector, on the passenger compartment side? Are all of the terminals you checked clean and such? When I put the old Mopar Perf electronic ign conversion kit on my '67 Newport. When I first tried to start it and...

Now that we know the vibration is more "harmonic" than just an out-of-balance issue where the vibration is solid, that can point to a driveline issue. IF it was just a matter of an out-of-balance and constant, starting at low speed and getting worse as rpms built, that would be an engine...

As in cocks to the rear? Not remaining straight? Check the slide at the front of the glass in the channel that is the rear of the vent window assy. Two dowels in there that also keep the slide item attached to the glass. Have you removed the door trim panel and observed the regulator as it...

That style of emblem retention was used by the later 1960s, but are not too easy to remove the emblems without breaking the studs anyway. Usually used where rear access was not available, like on sail panels and such. Less labor on the assy line, too. CBODY67
