Looks like you just answered your own question SD56. There's probably a torque difference as well but if you can save alittle cash and have it in...
Exactly right !! Por-15 when it's airborne is damn near lethal to your lungs. My mistake was about a 5 second shot spraying it without a mask. My...
I did the bottom of my 55 with it and then top coated it in gloss black. It's been on there for 8 years with no peeling. I've read that 2 coats of...
I can't remember where I read it and you'd wanna research this info BUT "supposedly" Crane part # 99833-16 which is small block F-rd valve...
Damn that's more car than my 55 was and I paid a lot more than 1500.00 . All this car needs is someone with vision, patience and time plus the...
I had my coil go bad and instead of waiting for one to get here I called Pertronix. They told me that 1.2 ohm would be fine although it is at the...
Damn it man, that's awesome !!!
Por 15 is great stuff for sure BUT make sure you DON'T spray it unless you have a respirator and damn good ventilation. About 3 seconds of...
I worry about my 55 every time I leave here without it, and nobody around here would ever stop to think that it was being stolen even if they saw...
Great!!.....thanks 24 riverview. Now to make up the linkage.........
Yeah I think the outside lever is first and second but I can't remember if the front lever on the trans is for 1 and 2 or 3 and 4....
That's the problem.......it's apart and I'm trying to remember which lever does what......
ok, so I know I'm getting old and can't remember stuff but this is driving me nuts. I'm trying to use an old Mr. Gasket V-gate on my M-22 Muncie....
3:73 "used" to be the preferred street gear but if you're running at interstate speed and want any mpg to speak of then you want a taller gear.
I don't get that.............Allstate covered my 55 Chevy while it was still being built and insured it for full replacement value of what it...
Another vote for NO!!!!!! It's perfect just the way it is.......
Depending on what intake is on it, you could use a 500 cfm 4bbl. carb alot better than even the smaller Q-jet. The 265 was 2bbl and the 283 was...
Why have a loud Harley ??? I can't count the amount of times that I damn near got pulled out in front of. What stopped them was that THEY HEARD IT...
yeah yours is 1.5 and Accel super stock is 1.2 ohm. I was told by Pertronix that 1.2 was at the bottom of the scale but that it would be fine....
Funny stuff ..LOL I used it in my Harley for 20 years and ALL the cars I owned for the last 30 years with NO buildup of any kind. VR-1 is the...
DAMN that's nice work !!!! That 500 must respond faster than a NY second
Primary resistance is 1.5 ohms. The coil that came with the kit burned out in about 300 miles so I grabbed the Accel Super Stock w/ a 1.2....
I gotta disagree with gasserjohn on this. The difference I"ve seen is a much better , more complete burn and lightening fast starts and alittle...
Your 55 is in about the same shape mine was when i got it. Glad you decided to save her and not give her back to them pesky goats......nice work...
You probably could have fixed that shifter for about 10 bucks. It sounds like it only needs a bushing kit and re-adjusting
Yep I agree. I've read too many stories of failure and the bottom gear shearing off and causing real problems.
We only got 6 here and that's more than enough for me.....I HATE the crap !!
Last I heard they were using hand cleaner with double the pumice and alittle sand just for good measure..:mad:, man this state sucks.......
The only thing that has kept my 55 running good has been Lucas Ethanol treatment . As long as I put some in everytime I get gas, it's fine but...
They do bolt in but they're 1 inch wider per side. 67-69 are the right length but then you have to move the perches. I'm still trying to find one...
