I just recieved today a new pair of rear wheels for putting my slicks on.  I custom ordered them from Pete Paulsen.  Trying to find a 15x8 wheel with the proper backspacing for an early A-body in anything but steel is nearly impossible.  I  checked with all the major suppliers, including Sto

I have a craftsman light that lets you set the advance with a knob on the back (at idle you set the advance by adjusting the light instead of revving the engine to 2500 rpm) plus has an inductive pick up. If you put the pick up near the distributor and not the header, it will not get hot.

Don't you wish that everyone could supply this sort of service? Does not matter how big or small a part you have purchased, to walk away only $50.00 lighter and the service person saying "have fun". Very nice. Andrew Marchant -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PR

Thanks Dan! As for planning--I make a new one, well, pretty much every 20 minutes or so. Kidding. I appreciate the input and will approach the rear-end build in that way. At the moment, I'm up to my elbows in fittings and plumbing. Who would have guessed how expensive fittings can be.
