BTW, Peter Max is a very well known artist, and if he did paint the cars, their value would probably go up. Nothing wrong with a custom paint job. I really liked the cars in the Austin Powers movies. People were saying that these cars are "unmolested originals" and all of that. Do we actually know

Thanks Tom. Mine is sort of a C shape and the fast idle screw rests against it when it is engaged. I don’t see anything with a hole in it. What I would really like is a way to convert this carb to a thermostatic coil type setup. Does anybody know if that can be done with an Edelbrock carb?

We sent off for a shim for the bottom BDS pulley to allow the alt and comp. to mesh or align, but didn't think about the power stee

OK, I'm sorry that I'm bringing up a Mopar question here, but I need a little help. I have a 67 Dodge Coronet R/T in the shop & it needs brakes. The brakes on the car don't have any self-adjusters on them, but the Dodge service manual I bought shows that it should have them. Do any of you kn

Fred, Don't have anything to add to your post, but it is very interesting to me that you used an A-body chassis for a street rod(32 Ford). I am planning a build using a 65 Malibu chassis under a 57 Chev. pickup. I know that wheelbase and tred is real close on the Malibu and the 57 pickup. Any comme

Dan, No problems. Only "complication" was deciding where I wanted to place the reservoir (firewall), run the -8an lines (through the frame) and which to use. I wound up using Russell pro race tubing for the low pressure lines and had one custom made locally for the pump to box line. BTW, I don
