hopefully pulling the poly next week or soon, then its off to the machine shop. if it checks out all ok, she will be rebuilt !

thanks to all replies.im thinking rebuild the poly also, as i know it will drop right back into place with no mods. if the motor checks out ok at the machine shop ill go that way, but if not then will probably look to a early LA 318. i know of 1 here in town that i could buy at a reasonable...

hi all. ive got a 1965 fury 3, with a worn out poly 318. it was dropping oil pressure the last 2 years , and now its been determined that the cam bearings are totally shot. my question is, do i do a total rebuild on the poly, it will be spendy ( parts wise ) or i may have access to a late 60's (...

Yes, I had the valve covers off last year. took them off to paint them satin black with new poly 318 decals. the top of the heads were all nice and clean a little dirty oil color but no sludge at all or didn't see any pieces of valve guide seals there either. I was pretty impressed with how...

Took the car out and ran it today in the afternoon at about mid-80s degrees, fresh oil filter fresh oil change pressure still reading about the same maybe even dropping a little lower at 38 to 40 psi at highway speed and 8- 10 at idle. In 2022 it ran 49 hwy and 20 idle. There is no unusual or...

Hi Guys. Thanks for all the information. this is what I got going. I'm running Valvoline VR1 10/30 in the winter and 20/50 in the summer. Its about 85°-93° mainly in summer. I don't use any extra additives or motor flushes.first thing I did was replace my Stuart Warner mechanical oil pressure...

Hi Dave and everyone at FCBO. been away from the site all summer but i see more replies and info to my vibration problem. its still going on , latest things ive done or checked are, had the original harmonic balancer sent to Cali and rebuilt. installed a month ago, no change. double checked...

Thanks Dave

Thanks to all for replies. I'm going to look into inspecting the flex plate for cracks, breaks or being loose. Are new flex plates available if it is broke or cracked and needs replaced ? Thanks

Hi, I have posted this last year and have been checking for the vibration but it is still present and seemingly getting worse. 1965 Fury poly 318, 120k miles ,all stock, we replaced water pump, timing gears and chain with double roller in 2022.timing chain was tight on left side, but sloppy...

thanks guys for the replies and advice, think i'll do a new carter pump and add the old one to the used but still working parts collection in the tote in the trunk.

im thinking the diaphram is leaking inside the pump housing as the clear fuel filter is now empty after sitting for 7-8 days. its bled partially off before but never emptied the fuel filter. i cant really tell if the motor oil has a gas smell to it or not. reading past threads seems like a new...

Hi, I did 235/60/15. Speedo is off a little 2 MPH. tires don't rub on front or back but I wouldn't go much wider. Tires are Cooper Cobras, wheels are Torq Thrust. Put them on 3 1/2 years ago, $800 total rims and tires. $100 each tire, $100 each rim.

Hi, Wow . the car looks great. Love the dash and interior, AND if I ever repaint my 65, I'm painting it Chrysler Mango Tango. Very well done, Sir !

Thanks Ross, I'll get in touch with him.

i run 4 wheel drum brakes on my 65 also, can anybody recommend a high quality shoe manufacturer for a 4 drum non power brake set up ??

Thanks halifaxhops, I was hoping you would see this and reply. Can you PM me as I have a couple of questions. Thanks
