    Cowl paint

    Hi guys. Just looking for a little direction here. I had some fist size patches of paint peeling off the top of the cowl area. I couldn't stand the site of bare metal so I scraped and sanded most of the paint off. As it drops down towards the engine bay there is a seam. I chipped away what I...

    Distributor hitting rad hose

    My 1973 grande looks to have the stock distributor with the points removed and electronic added. My problem is that when I want to turn it clockwise to advance the distributor the vacuum diaphragm hits the rad return hose? So I can only get about 4 degrees atdc? The engine is a 351c. Was a 2...
