Another thread with some ideas… Door sticks And a door latch adjustment…

3D print?? :lol:

Edited last post .

Glad to entertain the question - here is my take on it: It is absolutely NOT a "frequent valve adjustment" issue. Done (and tightened properly), they last for years with minimal work required. I have a high lift solid lifter car I haven't had to touch for 5 years so far. In this case with the...

I really had to laugh -the song "Some girls don't like boys like me,ah, but some girls do" came on when I saw this!

On the Wife's Swinger... they fit both Small and Large bolt pattern...

I have just taken my Dart out for another test drive to break in the new rear end after swapping the 7.25 rear end for an 8.75 rear end. Everything is new, including the breather vent, except for the housing of course. Not sure what year A body the housing came from, but it had a vent on it when...

All it might need is the latch adjusted in or out or up/down just a bit.

Yeah I'd rather have the bushing, I went and looked at all the options for the LS T56 and did find that there is a bushing made by one manufacturer so it's not out of the question to use one. Like there's no reason why it can't be a bushing that I can think of but I didn't want to install a...

I'll take it.

I run EBC red brake pads, 7/8 rear wheel cylinders, and pressure bleed my system. I do need to bleed them every two years or so to keep a firm pedal. If you pressure bleed you can get a firm pedal. And periodic bleeding can get very long caliper life. Mine brakes pretty good and its manual...

But have you not heard the Good News? It's permanently 1981! Showroom-perfect low-miles Darts and Valiants can be picked up for $2,000, any parts you might need are in stock at any parts store or dealer, the wrecking yards are full of dirt-cheap used parts, and it's going to stay that way for...

talkin' she fell out the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down. her and Tall John got married after he got out of state and had a bunch of them half-n-half babies-- half short, half ugly.

16 for a 440 is pretty good. Too bad the OP isn't getting that. Speaking of the op, he needs to forget about mileage until things get broken in and loosened up. In the meantime, look at some simple things like make sure the choke is open and pull a few plugs for a look see. That bad of mileage...

It don't look like a .300 win mag, so she might keep vision in that eye :BangHead: :rolleyes:

what shape is the front bumper in?

look, alls i know is that the law states you can drink while underway in an RV as long as you're behind the sink. which begs the question: can you mount the sink to the dashboard?

I try to make things look good as well.. Sanitary. I don't mind some wiring that can be seen, as long as it's not a rats nest. The half covers help tuck away things that you just can't completely hide.

I use Meguiars Water Magnet drying towels. These things work so good, I even use them in the kitchen for drying dishes :)

I'd love to see that too, stroked 340 but the tooling costs alone would be astronomical! There are not as many people as you would think interested in 340's anymore since the Gen 3 Hemi's became so popular in A-Body transplants. This conversion is getting cheaper and easier to do every year.

The Fastraxx is a bubble set up, it works just like the hub gauges but with the different attachment points. Getting it solidly attached to the wheel is definitely part of the learning curve, and some of that depends on the wheel itself and what the lip/spoke design kind of looks like. If the...

Thanks. I remember looking up part you used showed bushing. Silver Sport sent me a bearing so I put it in. But lot of ppl like bushings cause no way for them to fail like a bearing. Doesn't your throw out spaces rattle at idle? Mine do when engine cold seems to go away when car warmed up...

I've never dealt with the huge T-bar, they're nearly 1/2" wider/thicker, - are they? I've been lead to believe TTIs are a little different than the Doug's I usually install, - quit TTI back 2000 cuz of the rust issues that I couldn't warranty. Had I twigged you were doing 4 speed, I woulda...

One other option is a guy in Long Beach CA who precision machines existing K-H calipers, press fits stainless steel sleeves into the bores with all needed details, and adds better seals. Brakes is all they’ve done since WWII. Downside is shipping costs each way, 3-4 weeks downtime, and $2400 for...

The Maximum horsepower mothers?

MPG is tough. My right foot dictates. 16 MPG is the best I can get on very modest highway driving. Stockish 440 4-speed B-body running Dana 3.54:1 with talker 28" rear tire. But just a couple fun thumps on the pedal and suddenly drops to high single digits. Or worse if nonsense continues. Lol...

New pirate incoming...

Not at 1195.00 they wouldn’t.
