    Factory shifter with TransGo tf-3?

    As I see it, the TF3 does not require the transmission to be removed nor does it require anything special from the shifter. Don't tale my word for it, check out the link below. http://www.transgo.com/products.php?product_id=80&pageactionprev=viewpricelist&category_id=&keyword=

    Right Place for Painting Advise?

    Not too different. Shop I once worked in shot aircraft with DuPont Imron. Excellent paint as long as one follows the instructions on the can and uses the appropriate ancillary chemicals. My painter told me that most get in trouble when they start juggling things so they can shoot when it's...

    Right Place for Painting Advise?

    Using a moisture filter is a good idea. It is no substitute for good maintenance on the compressor's air tank. Most air tanks have a drain on them. After finishing for the day, it is a good idea to level the tank and leave the drain open. This lets condensation flow out. Remember to close...

    "USA imports" daily driver, whats good?

    At different times I have owned a Toyota Corolla (98, Fremont, CA, 4 dr automatic) and a Honda Civic(08, Maryville, OH, 2 dr 5-speed). The Honda was more nimble but also more susceptible to "tracking" grooves in the road. 180 miles of crappy I-35 between Dallas and Austin was an ordeal in the...

    in need of a new steering wheel

    The smallest Mopar wheel I've run across is a 13½" Tuff wheel. It works great with power steering, requires way too much effort to turn a quick ratio manual box. It still requires a fair amount of upper body strength to twist a slow manual box.

    360 or 318 magnum

    Look for the obvious first. Holes/cracks in the block and heads, rocker hold downs ripped out, a lot of oil coating the engine...you get the idea. You may want to grab the radiator, too because the outlet on the engine will match up to it. It will have greater capacity, but will the radiator...

    Will swapping harmonic balancers cause any issues ????

    Yes. Engine timing marks on the LA V-8 moved 90º somewhere around 1971. Make sure the timing cover or timing mark tab agree with the marks on the damper. Otherwise, setting the timing of the engine will be an exercise in futility.

    The narrative said 2500 HP?

    It's the banners that say 2500 hp, the narrative below reads 25,000. Actually, 2500 is par for the course for a blown injected alcohol motor of 528 CID. There's a guy who runs a sand dragster with a 572 Hemi that claims 3000 hp.

    Another high priced eBayer

    Hope the guys in warmer climates aren't seduced by the rust-free NC body. The entire HVAC in the car is amok. Under the hood, compressor is there with only one refrigerant tube. No heater hoses. No vacuum hoses for the A/C climate box inside the car. Couldn't tell from the photos if it even...

    Lithium ion vs Air

    Can't paint with a battery. In my experience, an air tool will weigh less than its battery operated counterpart. Unless there is a battery operated tool "system" out there, the shop is going to be cluttered with power taps and battery chargers of every description. Can't beat a good battery...

    [SOLD] 73 duster rear end

    Most 73 225s had 7¼" rear ends. These units are as common as dirt. What is not common is finding one with Sure Grip. Mopar made them, but I haven't seen one personally. The 7¼ had smaller diameter axle tubes than the 8¼ and 8.75. If you decide to go with an axle with a larger diameter tube...

    F-body Volare 4 speed

    If the shift levers sticking out of the side of the 833 OD look strange because one is up and the other down, don't worry. It's supposed to be that way, otherwise you'll hit OD when you're searching for 3rd with the lever and 4th would be a step down, direct drive. Just remember to invert the...

    [SOLD] Rear bumper end brackets for 72 Demon

    Got a set coming my way already. Thanks. I checked the 73 parts list I have. Lo and behold, the 73 fastbacks and the 73 Valiant sedan use the same bracket. This is nice to know info on cross-fits for anyone looking to buy or sell.
