Like to throw this out for opinion as the Internet is as contradictory as my wife. Can anyone definitively tell me the first year catalytic converters became mandatory. I have researched they first appeared in 75, but were not mandatory until 76. Then I see anything 75 and on they are...

Looking for input about the need to put zinc additive into the oil of a Slant6. Primarily people that have not and what experience they have had with engine problems, or those that have and can give me some suggestions on the best brand of oil/additive to support the need. Appreciate your...

Trying to simplify the vacuum requirements on my Duster. I have noted a bunch of CA equipment and other bits that I believe I could remove and still operate fine. Wanting to know if anyone else has done the same. Specifically, if I plan to ditch EGR and the charcoal canister, do I still...

Need an 8.75 rear end to go into a 72 Demon. Needs to be big bolt pattern. Pristine not required, rebuildable is fine. Contact me with the specs/gear ratios you have. I am in Arizona so will work out shipping when we make a deal.
