    Van Auto info

    I've had very good results ordering from Vansauto. Mainly minor items, nothing big dollar. Only issue I've had was a front valance attachment bolt kit that came in 5/16"-18 and correct one was 1/4"-20. They were more than happy to accept a return but not worth the expense to do so. I used most...

    Quality control??

    Wow, that's a sad deal. This is a "heads up" for everyone. I'd be curious on the Summit and Edelbrock reaction to such a blatant defect. Have you inquired or responded with a product review of the issue with them?

    Heated Vests etc.

    I bought a Mil Toughshell jacket early February this year. A little heavy but no disappointments for me..............yet. Others have had issues though per the reviews submitted. Maybe it's not "tough" enough...... https://www.milwaukeetool.com/products/details/m12-heated-toughshell-jacket/m100-20

    coolent on the carpet ugg

    Putting a new core in mine now. Hasn't had heat for years so no antifreeze spilled. Wasn't even gonna' try the original though. The new core lower tube was 3/8" too far to the left, and wouldn't fit the box at all. Jegs said to go ahead and bend it, check it, if it makes it leak we'll take care...

    Intake Manifold Silencer Insulation Kit. .........Its purpose was listed in parts catalogs as "Valve Tappet Noise Reduction Silencer Package." Some say its real purpose was to prevent the intake manifold from cracking due to heat. Some say it was only used on air conditioning cars...

    Mopar 8 3/4 axle shaft

    More info might help. What exactly are you working on and which differential?? If you are drilling axle flanges you need to be dead on with the bolt circle. 1/2" SCREW IN studs get pretty close to the flange edge of my 8-3/4. The 7/16" holes were filled. Drilling drums is not as critical...

    Clutch pedal return ??

    IMO, reread the first sentence in post #3. Work off that. The .060" below is not gospel. The clutch peddle OVER CENTER spring under the dash works in both directions. First, it assists in peddle effort to help your leg release all pressure plate load on the disc. Secondly. once the peddle...

    Clutch pedal return ??

    How about posting some pictures of the components as installed? Engine and trans mounts secured (nothing shifting/rolling)? Did you add a block plate and face the FW by chance?

    Repair frayed throttle cable?

    Maybe adapt the bracket rearward somehow? A cruise adapter bracket worked for me. Likely too high for yours....
