Put up a wanted ad in the classifieds detailing exactly what you're looking for. I'm sure someone here has it. The moderators frown upon trying to turn regular threads into wanted and for sale threads. It's only allowed in the classified section.

I've told Kitty about her. She wants to meet her.

You're doin better than I am. lol

I'd be happy to look at it. I'm pretty confident I could find the issue. You've been on my property before and you know how secluded it is so no one would mess with it. My only problem is, although I do have a shop, I don't have room for the car inside.

12 inch pounds = 1 foot pound. That ain't happenin with an V8.

:rofl:

You said last time I asked it has like 30 minutes run time. Now it has even more. I'd say you're safe to put the inner sprAngs in.

That's what she said.

It's already fixed!

Nice!

Sorry bout that. I forgot. Kitty is working the voting precinct today and we had to get her going at 4 this mornin so I got sidetracked. She probably won't be home till between 10 and 11 tonight. Pictures of woods. lol Right off the back porch, includin Kitty's clothesline. lol

IMO, the best way to remove paint from something like a chassis is sandblasting.

They're the same on the early cars. I would assume the later ones too. But that's dangerous. lol

67 Barracuda. It says it right in the first sentence you quoted. lol

I got an error when trying to view, but I would like to see it.

A street engine. This is where people spend too much time with their noses in hot rod books and buying all the forum gurus BS. A short rod is good for high piston speed and it makes the engine pull more vacuum at low RPM. Generally speaking, that's what you want in a street engine. This is...

We have a tic over 6.5 acres. The back yard is probably 4.5 acres of woods. I'll get a picture when the sun comes up.

I cannot agree more.

I always try to go with same height all around, even when I go with different sizes front and rear. I'm looking at 245 60 14 for the rear and 205 70 14 for the front of Vixen. They are very close to the same overall height. That way, I carry one spare, but still have the cool hot rod look.

I believe a 225 will be too tall for the front.

He's going from manual to power. The conversion coupler is made for power to manual. He's gonna need a column. He's doing the same thing I'm doing to Vixen.

I understand. I believe though that he's in need of more idle timing and just an all around different curve.

I also went ahead and cut the lower portion of the rear quarter off all the way around to where it welds onto the valance panel. The driver's side trunk drop off needs the first 3" of the bottom replaced, but I can make that. Now I gotta save up for the rear quarter patch panel too. That will be...

Alrighty! That's gotta make some difference! lol

Kewl!

But what's a "poor" ratio? It simply depends on what you're doing. A short rod can speed up the piston. That has advantages in certain situations, just like a long rod to slow piston speed down. I wouldn't necessarily say one is poor. Just different.

Never understood this thinking. It's a difference of an 1/8" radius. Go 2.5 and don't look back.

Green is the new blue. Haven't you heard? What's wrong with you? lol

I'm not a welder and I'm not a bodyman, but I've made some progress on Vixen's outer wheelwell. I gave up the first attempt and ground it back off. I flattened out a piece of scrap fender and cut the basic shape. Cut small slices in what would be the 90 degree turn in and bent it in. Then I used...
