    Pedal to Z-bar?

    Ok, here's the pic of the zbar installed. With light in there I can actually see on the bracket where it should sit and ride.......with that gap there, I think my zbar is wrong. Which would explain why the top arm does not line up where it should. I could almost move it over to meet that bracket...

    Pedal to Z-bar?

    Those pics are perfect. I think I have the right rod, but the z-bar may be suspect. In Demon 408's pic, the zbar sits against the bracket that bolts to the bellhousing. Mine doesn't. Mine actually sits off just a bit, but I"ll have to go take a pic to show you guys what it looks like. It is on...

    Pedal to Z-bar?

    Hi All, I'm pretty close to finishing up the 4-speed swap........I got the zbar in and the bracket welded in place and all seems pretty cool. then I went to put the linkage from the pedal to the zbar on, and I can't figure it out. No matter which way I put it on, it really doesn't fit. Either it...

    So much for that toyota quality..

    Wait wait! You mean American hybrids also have brake problems? Golly me, can't imagine such a thing as an American car company having quality problems. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/35242362/ns/business-autos/

    Thanks for the replies. I guess I'll leave it there for now. No point in going back to remove it now. :) Thanks!

    Over center spring

    I'm in the midst of the 4 speed swap, and was swapping out the pedal assembly. As I was doing this, I discovered the brake pedal on the 4 speed setup was sticky, so I took the assembly apart to free up the brake pedal. When putting it all back together, I had the most irritating time putting the...

    Choosing a converter has me pulling my hairs.

    I was running an 11" PTC 3000 stall behind my 360/904 combo. Thing screamed. Moving to a 4 speed which is the reason for the "was." I'd definitely go with PTC again if I ever have an auto car again. The cam in my 360 is a comp XE275HL. It's a .525 lift......can't remember the...

    Drive shaft for the big auto to 4 speed swap?

    Hey All, I've started the swap from my 904 to the 833, and had a question about the drive shaft. I don't know anything about the length needed yet, but wanted to know if the one i used with the 904 will be too short to start with, or will it be long enough to make work (cut if necessary)...

    The Great Soda Debate!

    Speaking of sodas and alcohol.....I can't stand Jack and coke. Really nasty.....in fact I really don't care much for Jack in any form. So then I had a bottle of Jack at home that wasn't going anywhere and some Vanilla Coke. Said "hey let's give that one a shot." I highly recommend you try it...

    Unlimited Products in CA

    They suck. The hood I got from them was terrible. Cost me WAY more time and money than it was worth to make it work. I won't buy anything from them again. lines didn't match the car, extremely wavy......just terrible quality.

    Cowl hood

    Agreed! I did the same thing, and while it looks good now, it took way too much time and money to make it worth anything. Do NOT buy from Unlimited/UP21.

    5 Random Things About Yourself

    Oh you weren't the only one. It was thanksgiving weekend, with no doc's office open, so we had to go to the emergency room. The receptionist who has to take all of your information started laughing so hard she was crying, then asked if we got it on tape cause we could win $10,000 on funniest...

    5 Random Things About Yourself

    1. I broke my kneecap chasing ducks with a wheelbarrow as a teen. 2. Pulled over 7 times (without one ticket) in the span of a year in my first car (a camaro). Those cars really are cop magnets. Once it was gone, never again until 10 years later for no seatbelt). 3. I HATE that I have to...

    Cool car crash video! 1959 vs. 2009!

    I agree. My dad and I sure were surprised at how much these old cars fold up. My mom was in a head-on driving a 1978 3/4 ton gmc pickup. She was hit by a mid 90's caddy, and my dad and I used to think that these big steel rigs were indestructible. That truck folded right up. Driver's side front...

    Is there not much choice when it comes to aftermarket seats?

    Joe has the same ones that I just got. They are the Procar elite lumbars. http://www.procarbyscat.com/Products_EliteLumbar.asp They are one amazing seat! They were a bit spendy for me, including the mounts that fit the car, but worth every single penny. Makes the car one comfortable ride!

    Help! my windows are a wreck!

    The rumor is that glass polishing with Cerium Oxide powder is the way to go for stuff like this. I have some cerium oxide powder, but haven't had the chance to actually use it. Do some google searching on it and see what you think if the steel wool doesn't do it...

    Another "what's it worth?" thread.....

    Below are pics of my 67 Dart GT Buckets. I'm in the process of deciding whether I re-foam and re-cover them (I would not do this work, i would have someone else do it) or just flat out replace them with a Procar seat. If I replace them outright, what are these worth? As you can see, the plastics...

    What would you do?

    Well, you aren't exactly committed to the TQ. You can always get another airgap intake if you don't like the TQ. Hahahaha.......yeah.....all it takes is money, huh? Can you drive it for a while without the hood to see whether or not you're going to like the TQ enough to stick with it? At...

    Wheels to fit over Scarebird brake conversion?

    Hi All, I need to do the front brakes on the Dart. It's a 67 GT, and is still small bolt pattern drums. For cost savings and ease of finding the parts, I was considering the Scarebird disc conversion. Since this is a cost saving maneuver, I'd prefer not to have to buy new wheels to...

    Need a steel 318 Crank. Where to buy?

    It's too bad you aren't in Oregon. I have one sitting in my garage that I was going to use until I learned that my 318 block was no good.

    First sex in a car...

    An 87 T-bird (not mine). Back in 2000 maybe? can't remember now. Also, my parent's 77 3/4 ton Chev, and most recently an 05 Focus on a road trip from Vegas back home to Oregon. That road trip was the best! Have yet to get in the dart though. Gotta find that girl that gets turned on by the...

    Lowered the dart!!

    The more I look at it (and forgive me if I'm wrong, I dont' mean to utter the name of any GM stuff in here) the more it looks like a Hemi in a Camaro. That would certainly be out of place. Oh yeah, and nice looking ride, by the way. Love that look. - Don
