  • My sons 418"

    By HuntedDuckV351

    So now that the season is over I figured id give an overview. First off last off-season we had to tear down the 372 and found some problems that made us go up to a 4.00" crank from the 3.58". Had to have a new set of main caps installed as well as the 3 centers were loose. So we ended up going with another machinst at the start of the upgrade to the 418" and couldnt be happier with the results. So this is what the 418" has in it. First off its a 1971 340 block now with a molnar 4.00... Read more

  • Bought a used engine run stand

    By azaustin

    Wasn’t going to post this but changed my mind after reading some recent “score” posts. Over the last couple of years I’ve thought about building an engine run stand just to “dial things in” check for things like leaks, etc. before I install an engine. Some of the kits are not bad, and I could just build one from stuff I have laying around (like the K-member on wheels I saw) but all of that takes time, and I already have more projects than I’ll live to finish. Then this run stand popped up on... Read more

  • 1973 Plymouth Duster in CA

    By Surfer5567

    1973 Plymouth duster. Runs. Drives. Stops. Body is SOLID no rust!! Its an auto, ac, power steering, disk brake car. Originally red but has been painted orange. I think with some elbow grease the original red could come back with some good patina. Has an aluminum radiator with electric fan, msd ignition. Otherwise its all stock. No leaks. I recently rebuilt the carb. It needs a new fuel tank sending unit and the wiring for the ignition switch ironed out (it works it just finicky). With those... Read more

  • 1966 Dodge Charger What's it worth.

    By cope

    Looking to sell my 1966 Dodge Charger. 383 4bbl, 4 speed with Sure Grip. It’s been in storage for last 25 years. Still has Certicard and has Original Window Sticker and Invoice Receipt from 1966. Just shy of 89k miles. I’d also appreciate any recommendations of where to list it and how much it's worth. .

    What causes knock control spikes?

    By cryptolime

    I've been dealing with knock control spikes over the last couple months. Usually up to .65 but last week I got a spike up to .84. This always happens at light throttle, highway cruising. Always in 5th or 6th gear at lowish RPMs (below 3k). I thought it might be my A/C compressor but it does it even without using A/C. I've filled up at three different stations now so I don't think fuel quality is the issue. Any ideas on what could be causing this? I already put in fresh plugs a month... What causes knock control spikes?

  • Lucid Owners

    Excuse me, I’m new in town and it gets worse.

    By scullen27

    hello! I’ve been in awe of the Lucid Air for years, but only just bought one last week through a third party dealer. I now have a 2023 Air Pure AWD in Stellar White with Mojave PurLuxe interior. There is still a year (or 10k) left on the original warranty. I already have a service appointment for this coming week to upgrade to CCCV2 and perform a maintenance and inspection. I am coming from a Volkswagen iD.4, so I am already pretty familiar with software…quirks. I haven’t spent much time... Read more

  • Anybody swap Holley base plates?

    By qkcuda

    I have a 4160 Holley 600 vacuum secondary carb on my 400. The part throttle response is great, but I wonder if it could use more cfm. I did some searching and it appears the 650 has the same venturi diameters but uses the larger 750 base plate (1 11/16 vs 1 9/16). Some internet searching indicates swapping the baseplates might be possible. Has anyone ever done this?

  • e-brake cable removal from lever a-body

    By jagsdtc

    Does anyone have experience or knowledge on how to disconnect the e-brake cable from the lever on an early A-body? I need to swap out that section of cable from the brake plate and need to disconnect the cable from the lever to remove the original one. Conversely, how do you secure the replacement cable to the lever? Thanks!

    Trailer backup camera

    By gunns54

    I’ve read so many posts on this topic I’m thoroughly confused. Some of the terms used contradict the same term used in other posts and a lot of info overload. So…., For starters, I have a 2026 1500 tungsten which has the camera connector next to the left side of the license plate on the rear bumper? My understanding is that this is for an auxiliary trailer camera, which is placed on the rear of a trailer you may be pulling. 1. One of the posts states that you have to have a trailer rear...

    2005 3500 5.9L Cummins Serpentine AC Bypass

    By Aforr725

    My AC clutch froze up and busted my serpentine belt a few nights ago. I just moved out of state and my regular mechanic is 300 miles away. The mechanic I had it towed to is trying to brow beat me into $2300 to replace the ac system. I asked for them to install a bypass belt and he refused calling it a “modification” I know for a fact that there’s a factory provisioned option for this. I’ve already located the belt and the routing diagram and it looks like I’m going to have to do it myself in... Read more

    Am I Crazy?

    By bigring911

    Hi everyone, I’m 54 years old and have an opportunity to retrain for a new career. One direction I’m seriously considering is becoming a licensed automotive service technician, with the longer-term goal of getting into the repair, maintenance and restoration of older Japanese 4x4s, particularly Toyota Land Cruisers. I’ve always had an interest in mechanical work and older vehicles, and I’ve got a particular soft spot for the 40 Series Land Cruisers. I own an ‘81 BJ42 myself, which has... Read more
