Blaster 2 The plugs are showing it's rich so a new set are in order and going in soon

Orange box and a generic Accel chrome coil has always been my "go to" for a long while. This one got EFI so I needed an ignition that generated a "square wave" tach signal. After 8 years the EFI wouldn't take corrections/adjustments anymore so its was unceremoniously removed. Put the 780 back on...

I've run across this on two different cars both doing exactly the same thing, get this: At low speed, just off idle, the brakes are locked up. As near as I can tell it is the rears. Putting throttle to it rocks the car but won't let go. Switch to reverse and car will roll. Switch back and you...

360/408 10.26:1 compression (actual), MSD 6AL ignition. Using Autolite 3924 plugs @ .035" gap. I've been told to gap at 0.045 as 0.035 is too little and may cause fouling and/or poor performance. Anybody have any research or experience with this?

Keep in mind this all depends on where you tap in for your power source. If you tap in between the alternator and the bulkhead - yes, the bulkhead connections, as well as the ammeter, won't see the draw. But, if on the other side of the harness, between the bulkhead and the battery it will see...

While you can get away with it, as you said, it is not the optimal set up and can bite you. Case in point: in 2012 I was in the Mopar Muscle "Real Street" competition and one of the other contestant's cars gave up (beautiful car!), shut off and wouldn't restart after getting off the freeway. He...

I run 10's with a Pep boys OEM electronic dizzy. MSD's allow easier tunablity, but you can always find out what your curve is and translate it into the MSD later if your wallet is a bit lean on funds.

The factory ammeter wiring is questionable at best. They can barely survive going to the later 65A (square diode cooler back) alternator. In those systems total alternator output is going thru two 1/4" blade wire terminals in the bulkhead connector, twice before finding the battery on the other...

Like the original post, I thought my subscription had died and I missed it. When the new mag showed up, I was pleased. MM is one thing but MA is quite another; more my speed. I've been a subscriber ever since the NOS neon rental incadent. My kinda guys :thumbsup:

Driver it is... albeit less the 340 part. (I personally prefer the 408's for their stealth.) I realize it'll need more work to reach what you're looking for, but I'm willing to hear offers. I'm debating on painting it, but I have other projects that need my attention; which is why I want to...

Worse comes to worse, not going to under cut hesperia here, but if it doesn't work out I have a 7 1/4 in a 69 Valiant that needs to be swapped out for a LBC 8 1/4 Ive been putting off. You help swap and bring two decent 14" LBC wheels done deal. Valiant is near 710 fwy in south gate (burb of...

Have a 94 360 in d350 crew cab with 518 trans. Running driving (just bought wife a mega cab diesel to get her out of it.) Read portable; could be driven to Ohio! Body is not best but it has everything there for a swap to another car then the truck could be sold off with your take out V8. Just...

I have one in the for sale section. 70 duster /6 complete running driving was asking $4500 OBO. Interior is in good shape, headliner, panels, floor mats, dash, seats all good shape. Fresh head on engine, all new brake parts f&r, all stock, short of aftermarket radiator. Add dated 6/10. More pics...

Inlaws have a 69 Signet 4 dr they're looking to sell. 318 AC PS with disc conversion. Father in law loaned it to his sister and she got rear ended and let them drive away. (Sbhe could have easily out run them and got a plate at least. DUH!) Trunk needs help other wise ok.

I've tried replacing the cam(twice), first ones wires were too long, second one won't stay locked in place. Yes, I made sure the spring plate inside the swith was installed. (Read: frustrated with fool thing). At this point I'd like to replace the whole thing with new but all I'm seeing offered...
