    Dodge Lancer Voltage regulator

    Yes, the generic Chinese lookalike regulators can work well, if you get (and stay) lucky. And they're a lot less expensive than something higher-end like a Standard VR128. Quality and reliability matter not much when you're sitting at your desk scrolling through voltage regulator options. They...

    Slant 6 stroker?

    LOLROFL. Yeah, let's find someone to spend a kilodollar for a garage monument (part that isn't really useful without the rest of the parts to go with it, and even then, probably not). Pretty good odds it might not even properly bolt up to any production gasoline Slant-6 engine; a lot of changes...

    Oil Pan Gasket

    Much, much, much easier to do this job with the engine pulled, absolutely yes. Doing it in situ isn't quite so likely to make you swear to pull the engine next time…but almost. Plus, there's a bunch of other stuff you can easily do at the same time. Check/replace other gaskets that are a pain...

    Ceiling White Paint REALLY Works!

    Oh! So not the same Gladys I pray to in traffic ("Gladys, Gladys, full of grace; grant to me a parking space"), then.

    Ceiling White Paint REALLY Works!

    Yupper. Not for optical-type lamps where you need a specular/mirrorlike reflector to form the beam, but the 'headlamps' on a mower are really more like back-up lights on a car. The dude in this movie takes awhile to get to the point, but he eventually (3:24) he starts to get around to it, and...

    Stop in for a cup of coffee

    Body-colour grille and headlight rings.

    Stop in for a cup of coffee

    Sorry, that was the one and only set of those I had. I have a (big, big) bunch of headlamps, but not another set of those particular ones. Shoot me a PM if you wanna talk over options.

    Ooer! Pics after install, yeh? Be sure to aim them carefully; that's highly crucial.

    64 Valiant Slant 6 Fan Shroud

    '64 was the last year for the ring-style shroud shown by bschief. Starting in '65 it was a box-type shroud, still made of metal, still in two pieces (upper/lower).

    Here's a pair of the metal trims that go round the inside of the rear quarter glass on the '61-'62 Lancer-Valiant 2-door hardtop cars. In nice condition; paint them to suit and pop 'em on. Mine are the blue ones; the red-car pic is to show where these go. $44 shipped from Northern Michigan to...

    [SOLD] Dealin' Dan's Parts Bonanzaaaaa! (New US-Made Tie Rod Ends Complete Set)

    One set of new (in sealed bags, in boxes) US-made McQuay-Norris tie rod ends. All four, that's two inner and two outer; two ES401L and two ES401R. These fit all '70 and later rear-drive Mopar cars, except C-bodies. Current price for current (Chinese) parts is around $15 apiece; my American...

    [SOLD] Dealin' Dan's Deal o' the Day (new LED headlamps)

    Got one new pair of American-made 7-inch round LED headlamps, Truck-Lite 37270C. Not my favourite 7" headlamp in the whole wide world, but completely credible, much better than sealed beams, DOT-certified, and very well built. They draw very little current (no relay harness needed; drop in, plug...

    UPDATE on the failed Acell ignition module.

    Back when these brands we're tossing around (Accel, MSD, Holley…) were actual companies engineering and making their own stuff, with the makers speaking the same language as the engineers, feedback was relevant; it was "actionable", as the saying goes. Now they're just zombie brands slapped on...

    Leaking Holley 1920

    Yes, Aviation Permatex can handle exposure to gasoline vapour and the occasional splash of liquid. Constant submersion in liquid gasoline is a totally different matter. Keep in mind we are talking about a pot of highly flammable liquid, perched right near a part of the engine (exhaust manifold)...

    Leaking Holley 1920

    No. There is no gasket sealer you can use that is adequately gasoline-proof. All of it will dissolve, and that portion of it on the inside will go on to clog up stuff in and downstream of the carburetor that shouldn't ought to be clogged up. No, sir. There are other Holley carburetors that...

    Leaking Holley 1920

    Most likely, the carburetor body and/or bowl is warped, and/or there is a burr or foreign material on the sealing flange area(s). Doubling or tripling up on gaskets might stop the bleeding. More detail might wring out a more helpful answer to this one. Exactly where is the fuel leaking? Bottom...

    Headlight switch drama

    Yes, until Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 108 took effect on 1/1/68, then the parkers had to stay on with the headlamps so oncoming drivers could still see the width of your car after a headlamp burnout at night. It was here (or one of the other times I posted it), along with E-Z...

    What to do with vapor lines when running a holley 390 on a cliffford intake ?

    That's a bit of a toughie any more, as Chrysler 4713551 and Standard CP3167 are disco'd. I'm looking at this one and suspecting it'd do fine, and it would also be a lot easier to mount than the original round kind. No separate bracket required, and its flat-pack design would take up less room...
