re the rear firewall, don't forget to block off the rear roof pillars and behind the rear door cards too. a fire/blast can blow over the wheel wells up the rear pillars and forward to the 'b' posts. neil.

it's not like it's somewhere you need to squeeze past it all the time so i'd be fine with that too. :thumbsup: neil.

headliners are a nasty job, but that looks great :thumbsup: neil.

almost certainly custom, yes.

.

****, that's not good news :(

if you find the longer bolts won't go 'straight' due to how close the bend in the tube is then fit those first on just a couple of threads. that way you can keep the header flange away from the head face 'til the awkward ones are all started. neil.

what about one of those memory foam mattress 'topper' things. they say they're good to use direct on the floor so should be ideal. neil.

there are several 318/390's on here that rev fine, as mentioned it's more to do with heads/cam/induction. at the end of the day the 392 will only be 0.050" under what's considered the 'majic' 4" bore of a 360 so not what you could really call a small bore anyway. neil.

it's just something you aspire to, lol.

i have a life. i have a car too unlike some on here. it may not be perfect but i'm working towards it. it's what you do when 'just the right car' either isn't out there or you're too tight to pay for it. you just make what you have into what you want.

no action in your camp then............ plenty of talk though :BangHead:

so you made that up too. or did someone say they heard a guy mention you were highly trained so they told you so you knew?

manual steering's fine as long as you don't fit a 'fashionable' tiny shirt button sized steering wheel, lol. neil.

highly trained at what? :poke:

scott, maybe it'd be nice if your 'resto boards' shown next to the car had a 'header' on them advertising sean's business as it would almost certainly bring work his way. it'd help his pain i'm sure, lol. just don't tell anyone what you paid. it's a great car as said by everyone who's been...

maybe they thought the 'roughness' would help stop the header gaskets blowing/slipping out, lol.

if you can find a machine shop that speaks fluent mopar and you'll find them easier to work with. :thumbsup: neil.

you obviously weren't having a dig at scott, that's clear. almost every post on the subject you say he's a good guy and it's not his fault. seems it was just a mis communication issue going on through the project. i often do more than i'm asked on customers cars even though i know i won't get...

i wouldn't use just water. coolant/antifreeze has corrosion inhibitors. if you've ever seen an internally furred up ally intake etc you'll know plain water's not good. neil.

fingers crossed it's an injector at fault then :thumbsup: neil.

now it seems to be fuel related why not just swap injector 5 with another that you know works? if 5 still won't fire it's the wiring not the injector and no money spent. neil.

if 'the build' does it for you maybe say in your advert you might take a project in px. some one getting nowhere with their car may want one ready to drive but worry about what to do with their project. neil.

and that's relevant because?

what's wrong with a prop rod like lots of modern cars have? no moving parts to go wrong, no leaking gas struts and so on. simple is good and reliable as a rock. :thumbsup: neil.

i hate building parts that someone else took apart. it's like doing a jigsaw puzzle without the lid off of the box. neil.

lol, are you looking on your phone? that won't help, i can't see **** on a screen that small even with my glasses on. that's why i have an old style nokia with buttons still. :rolleyes: neil.

then do it again and stop talking about it. oh...... but that'd mean actually buying a car wouldn't it :poke: :rofl:

looking at the pics i prefer the painted bumpers, but that's just me. neil.

what spacers? looks like the carb's bolted directly to the inlet to me. neil.
