The reason I'm trying the Flexplate first is because the Harmonic Balancer I bought was REALLY expensive, and the flexplate was cheap, so I figured between the 2 the flexplate was more suspect. And I wanted to upgrade anyway. The Hayes I just got did FINALLY fit, and it's really thick, so it...

I have a Hayes 12-030 on order, it doesn't look like the same stampings, but it is ASI certified, dichromite finish yada-yada. Ordered from a different vendor. lollerz Hopefully it fits!!

FMX trans. I have counted the teeth twice, and my starter works with it.

The crankshaft in my car is stock, plus an extra stock one at my shop, and the flexplates don't fit either, and get this, I had them send me another TCI to see if it was a fluke, but thats the second one that did not fit. They are barely off on 3 holes, I just don't want to grind the holes open...

The ATI is nice, but it is not offset like it should be, and the center hole is too big. Like it was suppose to have an adapter? Now waiting on another TCI just to see if I got a "fluke". Not even sure what to think now! If this don't work, gonna just return everything and buy from a different...

I have purchased 2 different flex plates through Summit for my 351C, and neither of them have fit the bolt pattern correctly!! I bought a B&M SFI approved back in 2016 and had to "Modify" it to fit, but now I have a small vibration that comes and goes with engine RPM, so I decided to swap...

I found and bought the Leeds 9" Brake booster not knowing that our originals are 11". Has anybody used one of these? I would think it would save a little room under the hood? And it is supposed to function as good as the original. I'm not too worried about the "stock" look, just wanted a...

Thank you for the info!!

I have been trying to get a good pair of Ram Air hood hinges set up for my car, but it has proved to be an expensive and exhausting problem. I was going to send them out for rebuild but after paying for shipping plus the $175 to have them rebuilt and buy a pair of Ram Air springs its over $300...

Looks very good!! I know how tough it is to detail our engine bays!!

My dad has a 73 Mach 1 that has a full blue interior, and I know he needs the passenger side A-pillar molding. Maybe both. Willing to pay for a pair. Thanks!!

I have been searching for a good original set for a while now, and they are usually sun faded or worse. I just retro-fitted mine with a modern 3 point replacement and it works very well and looks appropriate. Good luck!!

I have one in my car and have no exhaust issues. But I don't have staggered shocks either.  If I remember right I only had to drill one hole on each side because I was able to use one of the existing holes.

I want to start stripping some of the pot metal parts on my car like the rear quarter extensions, front fender moldings, hood molding etc. Is it safe to sandblast these items?

Thanks for the replies!!

I just bought a Boss 351 intake manifold, but the PO sandblasted it and painted it. I don't mind this look but it does yellow over time. Is there any better coatings out there?

I cut a "C" shape piece to fit inside the corner horizontally, then I installed a small strut in the middle of the rear wall that goes from the top of the pan to the bottom so the main part can't twist, and finally installed 2 small struts on either side so the sides can't bulge out either...

I am running 3:50 rear gears and 15 by 8 magnum 500's. I think I am just going to put the Air Gap back on and save the BT for a later build. My VS Holley was tuned for Open Chamber heads so it is probably not enough Carb. But thanks for your replies!!!

I do not have the 02 tool, unfortunately I can only tune by trial. My vacuum did not change at warm idle. I am using a stock dizzy that was re-curved for my engine, but does have the 10L slot. And is all in by 2800-3000 RPM. I do have a 750 Vac secondary carb I can try. I just didn't feel that...

Both sides of the 3 slot tail lights should light up for brake lights, the center is for backup light. If you have original sockets try cleaning them and wiggling bulbs with the lights on. Sometimes I get a dead bulb just from vibration. I changed bulb brands and that helped. If not you have...
