Hi 448Scamp this is the catch 22, I been trying to figure out what oil will have enough zinc for the 520 lift cam but not too much where it will be problematic for the cats, maybe someone can provide a recommendation.

Has the design of the beltline molding for A body cars changed, it seems any of the beltline moldings available at this time have this V channel as shown in the pic, where the ones on my car the rubber is completely flat as shown in the pic, actually even my Camry and Lexus have the traditional...

I will hopefully be going to the car on Monday as its on the other side of the city and I will be bringing back the Cat Whiskers beltline moldings with me and I will take pics.

I ordered a set from Repops which is suppose to be exactly like the originals the car came with, I will be selling the Cat Whiskers set as I was not happy with it at all.

Thanks Ccas, I just ordered a couple of Magnaflow metallic substrate converters and I'm going to do exactly that, get the car running as it should and then investigate the problem later. If my car is going to be eating converters at least the Magnaflow Converters are way cheaper then the Vibrant...

Hey Dana67dart, sorry my car and the cat whiskers beltline moldings are on the otherside of the city at the moment so I can't take a photo, my friend tried installing one and it didn't fit right and didn't look right, at this point I've ordered the reproduction ones that are exactly like the...

Thanks Syleng1, your telling me what I already feared, in other words make some changes or be prepared to be replacing cats on a regular basis.

The cats I'm running are from Vibrant Performance Gesi HO Series Part# 7525, the problem happened after driving on the highway for 28 miles at 60-65mph.

Syleng1, not a silly question, I'd be asking the same thing. I'm a double lung transplant recipient, had the cats installed to help lessen the fumes for health reasons, wasn't an easy decision to make at the time to have these installed on a car that would never have them in the first place...

Hi, anyone using Cat Whiskers Weatherstrips on their 68 Cuda, I noticed the outter molding is different then OEM, the OEM is a straight flat piece of rubber where the Cat Whiskers one is like a u shaped channel, is this a better design then original? are these moldings easy to install? does the...

Hi, I'm running dual Catalytic Converters on my 68 Cuda, I have a noise coming from the vehicle that sounds like a rattle snake or like someone shaking an empty can filled with sand or very small stones, I believe one the converters is on its way out, would you folks agree based on this symptom...

Thank you very much 512Stroker, 66340SEDAN, Dana67Dart, I didn't want to over buy as the synthetic stuff is expensive and Keystone Automotive will not take returns on any chemical or fluids.

Hi, straight forward question here, which I don't know dah?, can someone please tell me how many bottles of diff fluid I need to buy to fill an 8 3/4 diff with sure grip in a 68 Cuda. Thank You

Two locking pliers were required, it seems Chrysler put thread sealer which makes sense to keep moisture/water out, over 50 years it solidified and become more of an adhesive, making a straight forward fix not so much.

:BangHead:Anyone else have problems unscrewing the socket from the back of the housing on a 68 marker light, I tried liquid wrench, pliers, locking pliers, any insight here is much appreciated, just need to replace the bulb and don't want to damage this light assembly, if the part was an old...
