Ignore my post. haha. When I first saw the thread, it was all wierd. now it's fine. :cheers:

It sounds like we have two different definitions of "safe" in this thread. We have: 1. Less damage to car = safe (older car argument) 2. Less damage to humans = safe (newer car argument) I used to be of the argument number 1 crowd, that is until about 4 months ago when we got rear-ended...

Dusters and novas (late 60's, early 70's novas) share a very basic, overall shape. I think most non-hardcore car people are only familiar with novas because the GM stuff is like a bellybutton. Since non-hardcore car people don't have an eye for detail, and just see the overall generic shape...

Put a 440 in it! http://eugene.craigslist.org/cto/2366108372.html Wonder what type of work that took? And whether or not it's a hack job?

There are some videos somewhere of him cruising that car up the street. Some one else around here i'm sure will chime in, as I think this was a pretty well known car. Unfortunately it had a small fire and he has since rebuilt it, and I no longer believe he cruises this one on the street. I think...

I have what was (for it's day) a high end Panasonic 50" plasma that's about 5 years old now. It's starting to display some large yellow patches on either side of the screen when certain shades of white are part of the main picture. I mostly see this happening when using the PS3, but I'm starting...

What about this one? YouTube- mini hemi classic

Got it resolved!!! It was a broken wire at the starter. When putting it back together I accidentally pulled the wire out of the end that bolts to the starter. Put a new end on it and fired it last night. WOOHOO! have yet to drive it, but ran it through a couple of gears on the stands last night...

I'm actually using the newer type bushing that fits in the large end of the crank, where the snout for the torque converter would go. Unfortunately, I'm not even to this point yet, as the starter isn't doing anything. The starter isn't even engaging the flywheel at this point. I just need to...

My car is a 67. Yeah, when i get out there next, i'll check my connections all around and see what I can come up with.

It's a powermaster mini starter, and worked perfectly when i pulled the auto. Next time i can get out there, I'll check my connections at the starter and double check my battery connections.

Hmmmm........Speaking of the starter. I got underneath again to look around........the starter pinion seems awfully close to the flywheel. Should they sit like this? They seem to be almost on top of each other. Is this normal?

The caption underneath this pic says it can be grounded. Wonder what might be going on. http://www.moparmusclemagazine.com/techarticles/drivetrain/mopp_0107_727_torqueflite_transmission_conversion/photo_22.html

Hmmmm............If that's the case, anyone know where I'd find this thing? I guess i could attempt to follow the wire, but it's inside the loom and I don't really want to cut that apart.
