    WHO sells the best A-Body strut rod bushings?

    I agree. Probably best to get a whole front suspension rebuild kit. I did mine but had access to a shop press to do the LCAs etc. Was the way to go like you said if the stuff is possibly 50 years old plus. Another thing is these cars handle real well when everything is as it should be.

    I knew a feller who had one of them there Knock off Jine-ease carburetors. Apparently it was dumping fuel and loaded up the cylinders so bad that when he finally got it to fire it blew his passenger side muffler to Kingdom come...I looked under the car and the muffler was wide open like the gash...

    Are there any experienced beer drinkers here?

    What I've found is your taste buds "graduate" to better beer and you can never go back. I've drank craft brew for years and when I do regular beer" its usually Yuengling, Heineken, Coors original or Molson etc. Budweiser, I gave that up years ago...I can drink it in cans on ice at a BBQ...

    UPDATE - Looks so good but ya can't shut the hood

    Yup its usually a spacer or the intake is too high issue. Fun snippet of info the Edelbrock Torker while it is not popular for some was a low rise single plane that was designed to fit under a street car hood...:)

    SBE 318 basic rebuild +CAM , INTAKE, HEADS, expectations?

    Good luck. I've heard of the attributes of the early 318. I think I'd measure how far down the hole the piston is and cc the heads and do the math to figure out compression ratio especially with a 340/360 head casting and compute it. I'd want to know...if it comes out "just right" you may be...
