    Need help identifying throttle spring please!

    Are you looking for application correct or something that will work? I googled.... "64 valiant 6 cyl throttle return spring" Lots of generic spring offerings came up. If you measure the throttle closed distance and the throttle full open you can go to hardware stores like true value / Ace...

    Overheating on run stand

    If the engine bearing clearances were set to factory spec 160 will exacerbate a tight new engine and temp. I have heard of overheating due to ring gap being too tight. If it overheats without a thermostat and with a thermostat it's not the thermostat.

    [WANTED] Stabilizer bar bracket

    Those look the same as 67 up. They are typically "permanently" attached to the say bar. So you might have better luck looking for a 67 thru 72 sway bar?

    What kind of fuel do you run?

    I use alcohol free from Maverick gas stations. The engine was rebuilt in the 80s and may or may not have replacement valve seats. I'm not too worried about the lack of lead in the fuel.

    Crank no start

    When you press the horn button does it start and keep running? Or does it start and when you release the horn button it dies? What if anything did you do to the wiring to install the steering wheel? Did you remove the steering column in the I stall process?

    2.76 vs 2.94 gearing

    My 7/14 lasted 323,000 miles behind a 273 2bbl and 904. It would still be in use today but it was run dry (leak or not refilled at last lube change) for up to 20,000 miles.

    Fuses issue

    IMHO 20 amp might not be enough. Most of the cirs have a 20 amp fuse on their own. You need to check the current draw on the red or black wire with every thing on, headlights radio doors open brake lights pressed etc, etc, etc. Then you will see how close to the limit you are running those...
