Lol. Its ok, i asked. Nope, cant follow all the posts on all the boards. Just havnt the time for it. Shoot, i have to do the vast majority of my online activity on the go with i phone that is prolly smarter than the user. (how the heck do i get this dang thing to post pics?) The stories i can...

I agree, the stock or correct resto drum has been beat to death. The hardwire ball from the fuse pnl kit is quite painfull. Not into standing on my head to crimp on ring terminals and landing one at a time on pnl, then stringing wire everywhere either. I would like plug in harness style, but...

Now we're getting somewhere... Would be in the developmental area. Everything on my car works very well. Unfort due to raw material costs and labor rates (americans wont work for $.13 an hr like the chineese) $150 kit just wont happen. I have installed current kits on the market and the...

Yes, makes sense from a consumer or installer's stand point. Now please try to look at it from a supplier's or manufacturer's stand point. All of your ideas are perfectly acceptable. But could be difficult to cost effectively implement in the production side. Which is why i said i wouldnt argue...

Green: i ran their 25-2800 super st 904 unit behind the 417" motor in my valiant for several years. A little tight, left the line at 2k but that thing would lock up and carry the front tires nicely with 3.73 gears. No complaints, very tough piece. Am in process of putting it back in with the new...

I have noticed that many new lamp sockets, molded plugs such as voltage regulator and stock electronic ign come with 6 to 10" leads already installed. What would be recomended or not to install theese to new wire. There is also a ? I have of how to hook up to temp sending units and fuel sending...

Abj: you are certainly entitled to your opinions and procedures, i asked, but please dont deem another method as "half ***" just because it isnt your preferred. Some things just arent practical for all people. Which is why i started this thread. If you will kindly refer to the op....? A...

Keep in mind that stall and flash are different. Stall is all relative to tq and hp. Is very possible something that "footbrakes" at 3200 behind a 340 will tighten up behind a 416. As long as the vertor companies know what you are up to and cid they should be able to nail it on the first...

Steering column, turn signal switch, hazard switch, horn switch and ignition switch in column rewiring with all new or connection to existing?

It is also very possible that the crank grinder "banged" the thrust making it too loose on the previous build, and got gradually worse. I normally try to use the larger flanged thrust bearing (there are 2 diff flange sizes) and file a small "channel" on the end of the bearing where the halves...

Paddle type? So for a connection of the new wire to an existing, like a lamp socket, if the oe type housing is no longer avail what would you prefer? Butt splice and heat shrink yourself, 2 halves of an insulated quick disconnect with one side pre installed on the new wire, the other side butted...

Thats awsm. Please, feel free to continue your book! I may have some questions, but wont consider any suggestions or ideas to be "wrong". Not looking for any arguements, slam or flame jobs, just ideas. Would prefer to keep this one as clean as possible. Thanks again. C

Looking for just that. If you could have a new harness your way, what would you do? Bulkhead disconnect or gromets with hardwire passing through? Ignition options? Wire colors? Whatever would you do?

Seems fine. Stock 340 pist is 720 Stock rod is 758 Std rod brng is 46 #s on the balance i recently did for my newest engine if youd like something to compare to, but not stock: Rod rot 415.5 " 415.5 Brng-std 46 46 Oil. 4 Pist. 620 Pin. 118 Locks...
