1970, it's 54 years old and depending on the miles on it it's probably tired. But a leak down test would be a good place to start but don't be surprised if it's due for a rebuild.

A couple of weeks ago I picked up a 64 LA push button 904; last week I dropped it off at Dynamic Converters for a rebuild to include changing the front section in order to use the later model converters. So after discussing the 47 and how it’ll be used and rear end gears - will be a 71 B Body...

That was the same thing the officer asked when he pull in the driveway behind me. Said he wouldn't have caught up to me if I hadn't stopped.

Piston to the bottom of the cylinder and put air pressure to it, listen for where it's leaving the ship. Intake, exhaust or breather.

Hi Cliff, do the valve guides have to be shortened? Thanks. Kim

3/4 of a tank....that wouldn't explain not having power to anything electrical.

Absolutely, the spark plug hole entry is done with a fitting with flexible hose which comes with the tester. The test will give you a bunch of information.

There's not many older cars where I live, I haven't seen many vehicles older than the late '70's. A lot of people think that the older cars are a waste of time and money. There are some rice rockets who's owners probably watched all of the fast and furious stuff and think they have fast car's Lol.

I kinda wish they had posted her number, I'd love to give her a call and see if I can't wear her down.

Yeah, I saw this video. Only one out there regarding Slant Six with a Sniper that I know of, & its for a constant speed Generator, not a daily, in traffic, driver. Wish there would be a actual Dart on the road with this setup...

Will do. Thanks, Bill

My neighbor has a real nice 1967 camaro that I've only seen him drive like six times in the 17 years that we've been neighbors. There's a guy who lives farther down the street that has a 1971 duster and a 1969 camaro and I've only seen those cars twice in all of the years that I've lived here...

If you are a newbe, and you do not have a LD tester; here's what I recommend. 1) Take off the driver's side VC, and look for a sloppy pushrod preload, on the low-pressure cylinder, as compared to another cylinder with good pressure; which may signal a cam-lobe going down. Of course the...

LeakDown test

That's awesome, kinda makes sense though considering the 8HP got a 10+ year jump on the GM/Ford 10-speed and is a proven design used by several makes. The GM/Ford unit is only used by them and has had issues, enough to have a few class-action lawsuits filed against them lol. Allegedly they...

Damn, I wish that was the case around here! The old guy at the O'Reilly's south of me has an old Ford truck that he hasn't worked on in over a decade, but that's about it in my area. The O'Reilly's west of me, the old manager had a Chevy volt, I haven't even seen a customer in an old ride there...

For some views from Chrysler Engineering on that matter, see Figure 17 and the block of text below it on page 9 of this paper.

are you outta gas?

I wrote that section of that book!

I could bypass ignition switch if I knew where to connect constant power to keep it running

You are right, either or it doesn't start.

Somebody put Holley Sniper on a Slant-6, and seems to have had a good result: Part I · Part II

So u want a rust free body with good paint and interior. Complete with rad, tranny and dual exhaust and rear diff and fancy wheels and tires. I hope u eventually find it, but I wouldn’t hold my breath. Kim

Looks like even Blueprint Engines has jumped on the 8HP bandwagon. BluePrint LS ZF 8-Speed Engine And Transmission Packages Considering that GM has an 8 and 10 speed auto, seems like pretty high praise for BP to cast their own bellhousing to bolt an 8HP to an LS.

People don't realize this because it isn't so. The mechanism behind valve seat recession is well understood, and it's nothing to do with a lack of air filtration (which will do a job on the rings long before it has any effect on the valves). Seat recession happens because above a critical...

Probably parts for mopars

It's just easier to say you don't know how to build a car and lack the time and skills.

No Auto Zone?

Turn over and cranking are same thing, I'm confused.

Mine did similar thing a few years back. I believe it was wiring leading to key switch(67 barracuda). I ended up making an entire new dash harness. I know not much help to you. Got a voltmeter? Or test light with you?
