    273 intake manifold, and valve cover questions

    Question: Engine ventilation moves in one direction correct? In through the driver-side valve cover through the crankcase and out the passenger-side pcv to the intake? What happens if you have the pcv on the opposite side?

    Dash Cluster Question - 68 Barracuda

    Couple of questions: With the LEDs and the Rallye dash, did you remove the original mounted blue bulb filters? As far as color, green seems to be the consensus, I was thinking blue. Does anyone have a preference?

    Ammeter to Voltmeter...who does it?

    OK dumb question, but connect VM (+) to battery (+) and VM (-) to battery (-) ? When I did that the needle pegged over rapidly to the point I thought I might burn something up.

    Ammeter to Voltmeter...who does it?

    Thanks to this thread, I have completed my conversion, but I want to bench test the voltmeter gauge before I reinstall the dash. Can anyone give me ideas for easy ways to do this?

    Yes, another question about MAD bypass ... how to connect

    Thanks crackedback! That's what I was thinking. I hate to drill out intact connections if they can be fixed and used.

    Yes, another question about MAD bypass ... how to connect

    I had a similar question. Assume alternator post-to-relay black wire is in place and ammeter is shunted and wires correctly spliced under the dash. At this point it seems to me that powering up the dash and interior doesn't require the draw needed to drill holes and run dedicated wiring (or...

    I resealed mine with a kit from Rock Auto. Easy and cheap.

    Ampmeter-Voltmeter conversion

    Does anyone have a thread for a how-to on converting the 67 Rallye dash ampmeter to a voltmeter? I saw on some threads of folks able to use the guts of a aftermarket voltmeter and mount them to the original gauge.

    Intake gasket question

    This is a newbie question, but here goes. I have an engine gasket set, and it came with two intake manifold gaskets, one metal and one fiber. Which do I use or both? Any help is appreciated.

    Correct Proportioning Valve?

    Yes brake lights, not back up lamp. :violent1: Thanks for the inputs. My engine is in pieces and I am cleaning up my wiring harness. I will make sure I put it together correctly!

    Correct Proportioning Valve?

    Yeah the brake fluid looked like an Irish Red on tap. New p-valve... No sense skimping on brakes. I saw some adjustable valves on jegs with two wires for a back up lamp. Any ideas on how to wire that with the single wire lead I have? Thanks everyone for the replies!

    Correct Proportioning Valve?

    "LPB disc brakes"? It seems like my block will work on my disc/drum setup, is that what you are saying? Definitely do want to drop the money unless I need to.

    Correct Proportioning Valve?

    The attached photo is similar the valve that came off my car, is it the correct one I need for my application? I have front disc (73+) and rear drum. In doing some research, this valve has an ID # PVM70. All replacement versions look blocky and nothing like it and I am having a hard time...
