    Rear End Question

    My Marti report reads my rear end is a "standard axle ratio 3.25",  9 on the door plate. This is an M-code w/toploader and comp suspension, I thought all configurations like  that came with a 3.50 and Trak-Loc.  The Eminger invoice makes no mention of the rear. mike

    Hi to all from Spain

    Welcome from northern California. I "stumbled" across my '71 M-code Grande w/toploader and comp suspension. A friend of a friend  had two vehicles and wanted to sell one and I was looking for a vehicle, just something that ran.  He wanted to keep his Dodge power wagon so I was stuck with the...

    Differential Question/Issue

    And don't forget the additive.  We did and the diff made all sorts of clunking noise in a turn. Something about lubricating the clutch plates. mike

    Door "Plate" Sticker on '72 Mach1

    The line printer I remember was a set of spinning wheels lined up to cover a page. Think of a single line of letters/spaces a page wide.  The printer would "hit" all the letters at the same time creating a line of text.  The page would advance a line and repeat.  Again, this was '67 and I...

    Mechanical Fuel Pumps. Whatcha Got?

    We removed the air filter and cranked the engine for a good 25 seconds or so until we saw fuel in the carb.  On a different note, what battery could crank a high compression Cleveland (D0AE) for 25+ seconds with no noticeable loss of power? mike

    Mechanical Fuel Pumps. Whatcha Got?

    Don't know the brand of fuel pump but purchased it from Summit Racing. A bit off the subject but what is the size of the rubber fuel line from the tank? Want to install a check valve.  After the car sits for a while the gas drains back  to the tank. mike

    Same as my Eminger invoice.  I thought it was a line printer they used or am I dating myself. mike

    Need Carb Help

    Same problem here.  Sets for a couple weeks all the gas drains back to the tank. We were going to put a check valve in the line.  You would think the fuel pump would prevent this.  Carb is a Holley 770 Street Avenger.  Also wired the choke to the alternator stator I think so the choke won't...

    Leaf spring replace: DIY or shop?

    Got mine from Summit Racing, five leaf.  Easy enough to do yourself and they raised the rear about one and a half inches.  The car looks level now.   Here are the springs we ordered from Summit Racing https://www.summitracing.com/parts/sdk-c5zz-5560-hd mike
