    What to Replace when Redoing interior HVAC components?

    Finally got the dash halfway disassembled in my 1965, and found the severed vacuum line that fed to the control block and kept everything from working. While I am in there, I am going to buy a vacuum gun (any suggestions on which one?) and test operation of all the plenum door vacuum actuators...

    Are LED headlights a worthwhile upgrade?

    Aim and BEAM PATTERN. The ONLY aftermarket LED headlight I've seen with a decent beam pattern is the Holley Retrobrights. Otherwise, check out www.danielsternlighting.com for better headlight solutions. European E-code light housings with good bulbs (all of which are about 55-65 Watts in...

    La 318 engine advice

    It's my understanding that "deck height" is cut after the crankshaft main bearing saddle "line hone" is done, as it is that place that all of the upper machine work is based on. Then, each OEM-family block has the "deck height" dimension which is measured from the centerline of the crankshaft...

    1971 Chrysler AM 8 track radio wiring question

    Agreed. There was a mountain of difference in sound between pre-recorded cassettes and cassettes I recorded on quality tape like Maxell or Memorex. None of the high-quality cassettes I recorded are non-playable. Record companies used the cheapest tape and housing available.

    1965 Newport Paint

    Axalta, which I believe is the brand that superseded/bought DuPont's automotive paint business, still has a "single-stage" acrylic enamel paint product. GM used acrylic lacquer paint as Ford and Chrysler used acrylic enamel paint, only. In general, many body shops liked to use acrylic lacquer...

    1971 Chrysler AM 8 track radio wiring question

    In many respects, the 8-track (and probably the prior 4-track set-up?) had a design flaw where the tape would rub against itself, going different directions, as it ran its loop in the cartridge. The malfunctions probably happened when the tape's lube ran dry? Cassettes were, basically, a mini...

    Wanted Advice On 383 Big Block

    If I am going to change oil right away I get the motor hot and dump in with the oil and let idle for 20-25 minutes. Bumping it down carb prior will break up carbon on the valves and pistons. A motor is an air pump. When that air is being compressed and it is leaking into the crank case it...
