They're back at it again! Great video I gotta share for those of us who don't live on YouTube. Main vid: And here's a nice teaser from a few days ago... cool car.

Hey, My car is 73 Duster. I keep leaving my headlights on with the engine off when I park the car. Can I modify the light switch so it only has power with key on position? Would that mean just switching the tan wire to a key-on accessory fuse? Would this affect other electronics in the car...

Cool video I thought yall might want to see... Uploaded today by Precision Transmissions. Pretty neat.

This could be a 12 paragraph explanation, but I’ll try and keep it short. I’ve been problem solving this for months and can’t figure it out. My question: Is it possible for a rear end to cause this? Can a torque converter be in bad shape and not leave metal shavings in the trans pan? Vehicle...

Noob here -- I assume this is a simple answer to most of ya... I already have a toggle switched solenoid from my battery that runs inline to power on/off my starter power supply cable (linked below) Can I use that same switched solenoid output to power the on/off signal wire to my Sniper EFI...

Hey folks, Anyone have a recommendation for a good transmission rebuilder? My 904 is about dead and there are too many shops to choose from. Looking for a shop that works with a lot classics. Also, I think I need to beef it up so looking for a good rebuilder... Thank you, Ben

My apologies--probably a silly question but I ask a lot of those... I need to change the NSS on my a904. But I can't drain the fluid and must do it as quickly as possible. I've read that some people jack up the drivers side of the car so the ATF doesn't blast out the threads when the NSS is...

Hey folks, I'm currently in Texas on my way to California and I'm in a tight spot! Short version: Does anyone know a replacement fan relay for the Champion CCFKRL relay kit that I could find at a local parts store? Im near an Advance, O'Reillys and Autozone. I think mine might be wonky. I...

Hey folks, Need a bit of help understanding the gas tank/evap system on my 1973 Duster. The carbon can is gone, and I want to repurpose the line running back to the tank as a fuel return line. No fear, I have already modified the filler neck to vent like the earlier years. I plumbed up the...

Hey there, I just finished my first engine build and did the break in -- I'll probably make a different post about that experience... many questions. Everything looks good, I want to now move on to dialling in the idle, but I have one concern. At the coolant ports around all sides of the intake...

Hey there, I have an LA360 block -- first time build. I have a hole in the casting for the lifter that actually pops through to the bore--It's smooth inside. Should I fill this hole with JB Weld, i'll tape in the bore to protect that... or just leave it? Thank you, Ben

Hey there, I've attached a photo -- burnt copper on PC. This is the path I think... Left most 12v IVR -> Ammeter bulb (removed, but wire jumped) -> Down past another bulb (not sure what this lights up) -> to pin #4 (orange) -> past 2 more bulbs to the last pin #7 (tan). I may be wrong about the...

Hey there, I'm trying to decide on a headgasket thickness for my LA360. It will be a daily driver in Canada, except winter. 91 octane is fine, but I don't want to go higher due to availability. And I'm concerned about detonation. I can't figure out if quench should take priority over my...

Hey there, I got a set of CC 822-16 lifters for my LA360. They're still in the box and dry, but one of the lifters hardly compresses at all compared to the rest in the box -- it feels stuck. Given what I hear about HFT lifters these days, I'm a worried about this. I don't want to install them. I...

I'm ordering a set of Speed Pro H116CP pistons for a stock LA360 rebuild--Street car. Those pistons can be press fit or floating. Trying to go whichever route is less costly... I assume to go floating I would need to buy and install bushings on the rods? Is that hard? Do I need special tools...

Hey there, First, I'm new to this so I need guidance. Second, if cam recommendation posts are pesky then let me know and I'll delete this! I read quite a few on here, but I'm worried I'll pick a cam that will require a bunch of other modifications to the setup for it to work properly. I'm...

Looking to swap out my 7 1/4. Would have to be in Southern Ontario for me to pick it up! Thank you, Ben

Noob alert. I have an LA360 with powersteering, no A/C. But the current pulleys and waterpump are for an AC car. (4 groove crank, 2 groove waterpump pulley w/ 6 vane pump) To avoid any cooling issues I'm going to change the waterpump and pulleys. I'm just a little confused on best layout for...

Hey there, I put a new oil pressure sensor in my Duster 360. Not because I thought the last one was broken, but just seemed like a good thing to do and I was clicking around Rockauto. With the old sensor the OIL light would illuminate at start up then disappear quickly. With the new sensor the...

Took off the intake manifold on the Duster (LA360) I just picked up Looks like the heat crossover was blowing into the block? Is this a common issue? This is an old Holley Street Dominator. How does this happen? Bad gasket? Installation? Time? Kinda rattled here... I haven't driven the car, but...

Hey there, I want to install an MSD Blaster 2 coil, and a Proform Electronic Distributor. Both come with their own ballast resistor. The MSD coil has an 0.8ohm resistor and the Proform distributor has 1.25ohm resistor. Which one do I use? They're both wired to the positive side of the coil so...

Hey, So I picked up my first classic -- 73 Duster with 360. It's pretty rough and I am trying to figure out the pieces strewn about the engine bay. Any help appreciated... Also, I know this is super basic stuff but I don't know anyone to ask. Each question has a photo associated with it...

Hey there, I need a full wiper linkage setup for a 73 Duster w/ 3-speed wipers. Is there anything aftermarket available? I only see the original linkages selling for 300 dollars on Ebay, but I'm hoping there's something aftermarket that costs less. Thank you for any help. Ben

Hey there, First post. Long reader. Buying my first classic--73 Duster with LA360 swapped. First, ignore the butcher paint job on this block. Not my fault! Second, I cant identify these heads-- I checked between the spark plugs and there's only a '31' on the drivers side and a '27' on the...
