    Oil on valve covers

    Yeah I have no hose going to the air cleaner from the breather. So what I'm gathering from you guys is that there should be a hose that connects the breather to the air cleaner so that when the oil is sprayed out the breather it recycles back through the engine and is burned?

    Oil on valve covers

    Does that baffle have something significant to do with spraying oil everywhere out of the breather?

    Front Tires Rub

    I think your spot on with an alignment. I cranked up the tbars to raise the ride height about a half in so now its around 2" and that seemed to help a little bit. But I checked the distance between the tire and the front fenders and on the passenger side it was a little bit tighter than the...

    Oil on valve covers

    Oh yes there is a baffle under the breather. I was pretty sure that's what you were talking about but I wasn't exactly sure

    Oil on valve covers

    Nope PVC is on the passenger side. Oils coming out of the driver side and it's on top of the valve cover so it mush be coming out of the breather I would think. I have been wrong before though....

    Oil on valve covers

    Hey everybody. I've been noticing lately that after a drive in my demon, there is oil on the driver side valve cover and also on the lip of the breather. Not so mild 440 with 850 holley dp It seems like it could be coming out of the breather when I step on it. I drive it pretty hard and...

    Door Alignment And Paint Questions

    So I tried getting pictures uploaded yesterday but my phone was being a pain so that didn't work out like I hoped... But I started messing around with the hinges and I got the lines matched up pretty darn good so I am happy with that. Now I just have to get the front to back set right because I...

    Door Alignment And Paint Questions

    I just went out and checked to see if the door moved up and down at all and it didn't so does that me the hinges are still good? If my memory isn't lying to me we used the hinges from the door that were on the car before and there were no problems with that door at all. It fit nicely

    Front Tires Rub

    After taking a closer look at it today, it is just the passenger side tire is rubbing. The driver side has plenty of clearance but the passenger side is rubbing pretty hard. I'm thinking that an alignment might fix this by itself?

    Front Tires Rub

    Also I forgot to mention that the car isn't aligned and I don't know when the last time it was. I don't know if that would make a difference or not but I just thought Id throw it out there

    Front Tires Rub

    Hey everybody, so here's my problem. The front tires in my demon rub on the fender whenever I turn the wheel and it makes a TERRIBLE sound! It's actually pretty embarrassing when everybody is watching me pull out of a gas station or something and they hear the really loud and awful sound as I...

    Door Alignment And Paint Questions

    Hey guys I need some tips and tricks with body work and paint. A little while back I had to put on a new passenger side door. Now my buddy and I are by no means experts at body work, I've actually never done any sort of body work. So getting the door properly aligned is a challenge. When we...

    Leaking fuel fittings

    Leaking fuel fittings

    I have the permatex thread sealant paste. Would that work?

    Leaking fuel fittings

    The flare fittings that go directly into the carb (850dp) sealed fine and don't leak. It's just two fittings between the regulator and the dual feed line into the carb that won't seal. . It wouldn't let me upload the other picture but it's the same fitting. I believe they are regular pipe thread

    Leaking fuel fittings

    Yes I'm sorry, I believe they are tapered threads. They're the fittings that have barbs on on side for a hose to connect too and threads on the other. I'm sorry I don't know the proper terms for all these I've never really looked at the names of them.

    Leaking fuel fittings

    Hey guys I just did a carb swap and had to change some fuel lines, but I can't keep the fittings from leaking. I've been told not to use any thread sealant because it'll get into the carb. Any tips?

    Yes I would definitely recommend putting on your mechanical fan. My flex fan throws heat so much better than the two little electrics. Also I do have a 850 dp i just rebuilt that I am going to put on at some point. Don't know when but it will happen!

    Ball Joint Replacement

    Is it just the ball joints moog makes are junk? Or are all moog products garbage?

    Ball Joint Replacement

    It's not a moog, i have surprisingly been hearing that they aren't as good as they thought they were! It's a quick steer which probably isn't any better but it's all I could get for the time frame that I had. But I went to the hardware store picked up some pvc that fit around the boot and tried...

He looked at me and said "dude, do you realize I do this for a living!? We can do whatever you want and...
