I have a question I can't find any 65 grills that are in good shape or any at all mine is in rough shape I found a 64 Valiant Grill very good shape will a 64 Grill fit on a 65 without any fabrication?

I got a 1965 two-door hardtop Valiant and not sure mine came with a 5 blade

Here's a picture of my five blade fan and half inch spacer

You should be good with a 1/2" spacer and the five blade fan that's what I'm using and got clearance on both sides I have a 7 Blade fan it still doesn't fit right....

Sick!!! Sweet build.

Yep it .030 and that's where it's at at right now with the plastic feeler gauge they sent me with the kit

Just got back from a 30-mile cruise I set them to 13 and 23 oh yeah that's crazy that little bit can notice just in the Idol O.o.... and no probably not going to notice five horse.. my other summer toy is Infiniti G37S 400 horse to the Wheels uprev Tune she is fast and fun smoke them for a block...

I was talking to my old man and he said the 170 distributor number one is higher up he has a 225 in his 66 Cuda and it has a short hose like mine but the distributor number one is down farther same with mine.. 1 pic is from his 60 valiant and the other my 65 valiant is that correct?

The engine in the car is red and the original motor the one in the stand came out of a 70s and that one is blue my plan was restore the car and the motor that's in it keep stock rebuild it stock and the one on the stand go crazy try to get as much horsepower out of it as possible was even...

So if its not a 225 and its a 170 do i change the timing and air gap for the dwell?

Had wife take pics had wife take pics

Alright I'll check it and post a picture right when I get off work

with that protronics kit it comes with a .30 feeler gauge and tells you that should be your air gap and has a screw Just Like Old points so you can sit that Gap.... so I figured I would check the dwell.. all the numbers I found on the car and the motor and all the searching iv done online is...
