Great points, thank you giantpune. Hopefully the rain holds off tonight as I will be under a carport but, getting wet will be worth it if I find the issue. I will report back when I know something. Thanks. Tom

Thanks Cleveland, will do. Tom

I have rebuilt my front end, new upper control arms, lower control arms, both upper and lower control arms included ball joints, inner and outer tie rods, new conversion from drum brakes to disk brakes kit ( Willwood kit), front strut rod bushings, stabilizer bar bushings. The only original...

Sorry to take so long to update this thread, I had a little time to pull the carb a few days ago and dropped the carb primary jets down to 74 from 77 and the secondary from 79 to 76. After doing that the car runs great. No issues with idle. I pulled the plugs and changed them (forgot to take...

Great service and parts, I have only used them a few times but they were great experiences. Also, I agree with the praise about their YouTube channel. They help a lot to keep these cars on the road. Tom

I wanted to say that Bob at RCC Innovations did a great job and extremely quick work and return of my non-functioning tach. Great throughout the process with shipping/repairing/upgrading it to a modern 3-wire. Also great at assisting me with the new connections to get it working. Bob, the tach...

Will do Cleveland, thanks. Tom

Thank you boiler master and Sherrif41, I appreciate your quick responses. I will pull the carb and check the power valves over the next couple of day and see if they are reversed as well as verify the jet numbers. The part number of the carb I have is SUM-M08750VS (electric choke). This has been...

I have a 351c 2v with Performer 2750 and Summit Carb 750 CFM. Stage 3 cam and recent full rebuild by myself. The plugs show it to running rich. My idle likes about 1000 rpms and my static timing is 13-14 degrees btc. I have vacuum at around 17 and does not bounce around. The currents jets in...

Great job, I just did mine a few months ago as well. Didn't like the extended shackles and the leafs themselves were pretty flat. Overall, it was not the nightmare that I was expecting, everything came apart pretty easy with nothing seized up or requiring to be cut. Tom

Jeff does have a great channel and is pretty knowledgable. He and his shop are only about 30-45 minutes away from me and he has offered to come by my home to assist me with my build if I needed it. To me, that says a lot about him caring about these old cars and keeping them on the road. I have...

I have installed the hood locks just because of the ornamental aspect, it's a matter of personal preference. I also installed the ram air, I have the round springs and have left my hood open many times and never had the wind blow it down any and have never had any issues with it lowering on its...

Very nice, great color. Congratulations. Tom

I have USAA and would not recommend them. I have 5 car including my mustang. I have switched a few of my cars over the last few months and the quote for changing cars have not been what my change has been. I was told $13 a month for upgrading my wife's car from a 2017 to a 2019 and may 2016 to a...

Spike, I am not sure where you're "to begin with" or "I just didn't look far enough" statements come from but they are not appreciated. There are multiple other posts that state you cannot run a ram air with a pertronix billet distributor, this thread is to show others that if they want to, they...

Marc, I ended up using only 3 mounting screws and brought the power wire down through the dome light assembly and mounting it to the inside of the light to the power leg terminal. It was definitely a pain but at least there is no short to ground now and the light works. Good luck Marc and I hope...

My daughter got me a hoodie with a 1970 Mach 1 pic on it, my son got me a gift card for window tinting and my wife forgot to get me anything. Sounds about right, she was enjoying the new Expedition that I bought her last week. Tom

Merry Christmas Everyone and Happy New Year. Tom

Best wishes for a speedy recovery Randy. Prayers are coming your way. Tom

Thank you as well Steve, you are a wealth of knowledge on these cars and appreciate you passing this info onto me and the others on this site. Tom
