    Ride height difference Pass/Driver

    It's also my drivers side that is lower.

    Ride height difference Pass/Driver

    I know this is somewhat of a common scenario but I'm not clear on if it's intentional or not. I have almost a 1/2" difference in ride height between the front passenger and driver side It was like this with the original front springs, and I just installed new front coil springs and shocks and...

    High Idle Speed

    So the problem ended up being the gasket between the spacer and the manifold. I guess when I took it off I tore it a little, and it must have been pulling some vacuum in from there. I put a new gasket on and problem solved.

    High Idle Speed

    High idle was in park with automatic transmission. There was no issue with the spacer plate, I just couldn’t remember if it was open style or four hole and I just wanted to check.

    High Idle Speed

    I took a look at that already too and didn't see anything, but I'll likely have a closer look for any vacuum leaks.

    High Idle Speed

    I didn't check the corner idle screws since they were dialed in fine before and I'm sure they haven't changed. I've looked at everything else and it's all fine to.

    High Idle Speed

    I started up my car today for the first time from winter hibernation and instead of it's typical 700-800 RPM, it wouldn't come down below 1300 RPM. For reference the carb is a Holley 750 DP with choke removed. I checked the fast idle screw and it's backed off all the way already. The only think...

    351 2v to 4v conversation

    On my 72 Cleveland I have the 70 4V quench heads with Crane’s adjustable roller rocker kit. Block is .30 over and stroked to 393. I can’t remember the exact cam specs but it’s an Extreme Energy Comp hydraulic cam, nothing too crazy but has a bit of “wild” in it. I also run the MSD “Ready To Run”...

    Rear Sway Bar

    Here’s a picture I took with an adjustable pole in place of the sway bar where I “think” it will run and I’m pointing to where I “think” it mounts to on the body. If I’m correct then my exhaust is in the way as you can see the pole running into it. My exhaust would need a sharper bend over the...

    Rear Sway Bar

    Has anyone noticed any exhaust interference issues with the Addco rear sway bar? My cars aftermarket exhaust was done without a sway bar in place, and I'm concerned that I may not have the correct clearance for the bar where the exhaust goes over the axle.

    Rear Sway Bar

    That's some really good feedback and advice, thanks so much. I'll give ADDCO a call.

    Rear Sway Bar

    My original plan was to upgrade the front to a 1" and then put a 3/4" on the rear. You're suggesting a 1 1/8" and a 7/8". For general use, would you even be able to tell the difference?

    Rear Sway Bar

    My car is an H code, no competition suspension package. I'm curious how the factory bar mounts differently than aftermarket and if it makes a difference in handling performance.

    Rear Sway Bar

    that plate is virtually identical to the plate mounted under my axle for the shocks to mount to. You're suggesting I need another one that the sway bar mounts to?

    Rear Sway Bar

    My car currently has the stock one on the front and it didn't come with a rear at all. Did you order direct from Addco? Looks like you're in Canada, what was the cost with shipping and duty? The 2 in the pictures are from CJ Pony Parts and The Mustang Shop. .

    Rear Sway Bar

    I'm looking at adding a rear sway bar to my car and I'm wondering if anyone can comment on what the performance difference is (if any) in the shape of the bar. Are they shaped differently for clearance reasons for different models? See attached pics.

    Head Identification

    Thanks guys, I'm aware of everything other than the numbers in the circle and I wasn't sure if they had any relevance.

    Head Identification

    I attached some pictures of my closed chamber 4V heads which if I’m not mistaken have a casting date of Jan 14, 1970. Can anyone tell me what the numbers in the circle identify? 13579. Thanks, Randy

    Convert Auto to Manual

    I've been thinking about doing the auto to manual swap for many years already, hoping to pull the trigger in the next year or two. I'm curious to hear from people who have done the swap from a C6 what the performance difference feels like. I know the C6 is a power sucking pig and so I'm curious...
