Agreed, I do what I need to or want to on my cars. Hack it up to make it work if you need to. I did on my air cleaner base on my Roached Runner to clear the taller Edelbrock intake and 2 stage nitrous plate.

I can't justify paying insurance and plates on a bunch of cars you never drive. Personal property tax , the list goes on .. My pockets aren't very deep anymore.

Nice Duster Ole Guy.... LOOks like that thing is hooked up out of the hole pulling hard. Nice Texas Red

Mike you can go ahead and open that North gate up there in your neck of the woods and share some of that cool air with your neighbors to the South of you. I have about had it with all this heat & Humidity down here in South Texas.................. Took my little Jack Russel out for our morning...

Well we meet again Good morning friends and lurkers in the shadows :thumbsup:

The 70-71 air cleaner is already pretty flat or low looking IMO. Oh well time for a Super Stock hood right? :)

My old '66 Commando four speed had a 7-1/4. 10/19/65 SPD. After I broke the right axle and the previous owner had broken the other axle and two sets of spider gears I replaced it with a '67 3.23SG 8-3/4. The previous owner bought it in 1975 and I bought it in late 1980 (broke the axle in Oct. 1981).

I found this but it doesn't help much if at all. I've got 99 vacuum ports but none of them are labeled for the vac advance. Unless they're calling it an OSAC valve in this diagram.

Son raced at Grand Bend this weekend got into the finals . Some close racing .His time is on the left .

Makes sense.. but all the diagrams I’ve seen and threads I’ve read show it to be correct. It’s the standard Holley 2245, the vacuum advance is hooked to the small port that comes out of the passenger side of the carb.

Yeah, I'm pretty green when it comes to bracket / index racing. I'm good at Drag-n-Drive events, which average your times over the week. In those cases, you really are only racing yourself.

Headed to the drive in.

When I taste like this, I don't pour much. It doesn't take much. This is going to be a tough decision. THey are all delicious. THose 3 samples are lasting a half hour so far.

Sale pending- 496 Polara

Just an update for anyone stumbling on this post later. The car running better is definitely not in my head. I don't generally run it too hard but decided to do a little testing Monday afternoon. It actually will break loose the right rear punching it from a 10-15 mph roll and it will burn the...

No Mike, I like the way you think. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Never thought about it till now, but I bet morning time is a good time for sampling, before your taist buds get used much ? Or am I like always over thinking it ?

I don't know why PRW has 383 designation on them. Jimmy

Bite the bullet like I did and buy the 1/2" Medice spacers, that way if you make changes later you have plenty of clearance. My situation was I had my valve covers and intake powder coated and didn't trial fit them before hand. The valve covers wouldn't seal without grinding on the coating...

Good day here too. I need to do a wee bit of sampling to pick a bottle to share tomorrow night at Whisky Tasting Club. Nothing but good could come out of this. LOL

Sounds like it was one of those 'Push a dent in the floorboard and hope' runs....lol. :steering:

I have been in the hobby since early 80's and have owned a lot of Mopars. They always would come and go. Never could keep them all! I guess the "hunt" was always exciting and kept my interest up. Finding a "new" project has always been a rush!!!! (disease???). But as decent project cars...

Not according to what you wrote earlier - timing at idle speed increased when you reconnected the vac line to the distributor. You will have manifold vac at idle, not at WOT, and ported vacuum works the opposite, so it pulls in more timing when vacuum drops because some lead foot just hit the...

I wasn't sure what years would be right for 71. Mopar made too many 1 or 2 year parts only, makes it tough finding some of this stuff. Sucks buying a car with just about a complete interior missing.

Good morning, hope the day goes in the right direction for everyone, nice and dry cool day here in northeast Arkansas.

His Valiant has a modern Hemi and a hair dryer under the hood. He was moving like a freight train 2nd half of the track!

Love the glass! Meep Meep.

It’s hooked to what I’m pretty confident is the correct port on the carb, there’s a vacuum tree on the manifold that’s used exclusively for the brake booster and vacuum gauge when I’m using it.

Thats great news, that job is behind you.

Got a late birthday gift from my cousin today. Glass with a bullet sticking through it and the original horn off his Road Runner. :thumbsup:
