    Any truth to the practice of BLACK painted parts dissipating heat better?

    Any truth to the practice of BLACK painted parts dissipating heat better?

    As an old physicist I recall that black is the best at dissipating (radiating) infrared which is what the engine produces (see Black Body radiation). The best absorber is also the best radiator.

    Very embarassing question

    Thank you all gentlemen for your advice. After shooting some KROIL (wonderful stuff) into the insulator and letting it sit overnight, one pull by hand is all it took. Sometimes all you need is somebody to tell you it's doable and you wont break anything. Thanks again SC

    Very embarassing question

    Not sure I understand how it's going to "pop" 1/4 in. You mean off the far (open) end of the bend ? There's not a lot of play on the rod, I thought the carb would slide off toward the engine. Sorry if I'm being a bonehead.

    Very embarassing question

    I'm sorry, ignore the spring, it's actually off, it's a misleading picture. The spring is actually laying loose it's not attached to the linkage right now. It was attached to the other end. Maybe if I use some WD-40 the linkage can slip off the insulator ?

    Very embarassing question

    1920 Holley on a 1966 slant six. First time I attempted to pull it off. I foolishly assumed the (gas pedal) throttle linkage would slide off the rubber gromet. Any suggestions before I break anything ? Thanks SC

    mopar radio questions

    In my experience indoor antenna gives good results only on FM. For the AM you may get one station and that's about it. I did not have an antenna hole so I used one of those magnetic base antennas used for some trucks and ran the wire through the crack between the door and the fender. Works great...
