I thank you all for the rocker,, Lifter,,, exhaust or maybe ? tic noise,, helpful stuff to check for when it warms up ?! Still no buds on the trees,,,here. Car still at rest. Then when it warms up some; roll er out. Back to Ron White,,,,,,,,

I agree,, need to install a great stereo. Better spent $!.

Yes I tried that,,,, thank you anyway. I;m leaning towards thicker oil,,,, ?

I got this auto with the tick at 5000 miles on it after my 69 Barracuda was destroyed. Most people said the noise is barely there. I hated it. It had synthetic oil in it. 10w30. Tick, tick, tick. At leased conventional oil stopped the tick till engine and oil heat up. No exhaust leaks.

Yes it is,,, maybe 8 to 10.000 miles on it.

Hello from Ontario. Still lots of snow, but might as well start getting ready for April, May? Last summer I had this annoying Lifter and or rocker tick. I installed new rockers and lifters and put 10w30 oil instead of synthetic oil in the 340, and the tick was gone. Yup for 5 minutes, oil...

Hello all, that has been a question here in Ontario among friends. We have kinda agreed on, but not everyone, that if you start your Auto up, keep it running till its well warmed up. Condensation causes problems. I just crank mine over a turn to move pistons, valves, springs etc. Wish the...

These are Pic;s of backing plates and 10'' drums on newly installed 8 3/4 rear end. Drum is from 7 1/4 that was taken out. Can't figure out what shoes will fit, or if backing plate, drums are wrong? I was hoping to get this done before cold weather, but garage is damp and cold now. Ohhh well...

Think I;m responding in the wrong reply at times? Thanks for the help. I will update more pic's soon.

Thanks Guys,,, sounds like this car is off the road for a long time. From what I hear not many backing plates made for what I need. I just wanted to keep small bolt pattern so I could keep my tires and rims. I thought backing plates that came with rear end were ready to go,,,, guess I have...

Thanks again,,,,, I don't know what to look for to fix this problem? everything was a bit crazy with changing U bolts, mtn plates,, conversion U joint etc. Any ideas?

Thanks for helping Jim,,,, I measured offset,, 2" I do believe. yes 10" drum fits the center and edge of backing plate. The rear 8 3/4 housing I believe has been shortened to A body spec;s,,, it is 43" in width. and is SBP. Drum is off 7 1/4 rear end that was removed from Cuda. 8 3/4 rear end...
