Well all that does make sense, i set the cam at 0 because i read that aftermarket cams had the advance already ground in. And everywhere i read said the large cap duraspark needed the plug gaps opened to 50 and required certain plug wires. Man i really dont want to drop that oil pan again...

I absolutely agree. I'm More greatful that you're taking the time to help me, someone you dont even know. That right there is a great reason to keep this site alive Just let me know how to go about paying for postage and the donation. Im new to this.

Oh my gosh are you serious? You dont know how appreciative i am. Thank you so much. You definitely have a deal, just let me know how to go about paying. When or if you find them. Thanks again, all of you have been very helpful to me.

Hey man thanks for the links, see i knew that engine liked about 16-18 initial. The previous owner actually had that cam advanced 6 degrees on the timing set keyway and just recently i replaced that timing set of the same kind(cloyes hex-adjust) only I installed it at 0 degrees. That timing...

Hey i just got ahold of a 31 spline detroit locker hogs head. Does anyone know what vehicles ford made that has the same length axles but with 31 splines as our cars? I have 28 spline 9" axles. I priced just the 28 spline side gears but they would cost me about $280 for both off of ebay. Has...

Ok guys I know it's been awhile, but i've been working on this and I've just now got it running good(hope i don't jinx it). Today is the first time ive driven it to work without it cutting off on me. I recurved the distributor with the mr. Gasket kit. Bought an adjustable vacuum advance...

I checked the floats and they were correct. I set the idle screws to 1 1/2 turns out from seated when i first cranked it and then i adjusted them for highest vacuum without RPM Increasing. Which resulted in me turning them out mabye another full turn. When I put it in gear the needle on the...

My RPM at idle in park is about 900 and when put in gear it drops to about 650. My tourqe converter is a P330 10" diameter not sure about stall. C6 and 3.89 gears. The carb im trying now is an edelbrock 1406. It sounds great at idle in park but in gear it seems to be a bit rough. Cruising...

Hey guys, I was just wondering about normal vacuum readings at idle. Im having a hard time tuning my carb. I have a 351 cleveland with a comp cams 280H magnum. My vacuum at idle is around 15-16 hg. Also I forgot to mention i have 2v heads. When I shift to drive i have only about 5hg. Is...

Thats about where I mounted mine. Its good to know that it will clear the suspension. Thanks, i really appreciate the pics too.

Hey guys, those of you who are familiar with the Holley (red) fuel pump. Where would be a good place to mount it? Anyone mount there's in the engine bay? It just seems like there isn't alot of metal to mount it to near the fuel tank. Thanks

Thanks for the info guys. I bought it on a whim thinkin it would help with gas mileage. Any chance the internals are worth keeping. Top loader cases are alot cheaper, or is it just a waste of time. Everything looks great inside. Are any parts interchangable?

Hey guys, I recently bought one of those top loader "imposters" that has the overdrive fourth gear. I think it came out of a 78 e-van. Anyway I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with this transmission. It has only 4 bellhousing bolt holes and the speedometer is on the wrong...

1973 Q code Mach 1

Looking to buy a used set of 31 spline axles for my 73. If anyone has any could you include the price? Thanks

thanks, I looked at the door plate. Under axle it has a 9. So does that mean my car originally came with an open differential that the previous owner swapped with a trac-loc hog's head?

Hey guys, I was under the car recently and thought I would get the numbers off of the differential because I suspect it isn't the original that came with my car. Here are some of the numbers cast onto the hog's head. C2AW-4668, 3L20, 8E25. Does anyone know what these mean. I think 3L20 means...
