haha love it. :)
This is my coil actually. http://www.pertronix.com/prod/ig/flame/coils/45000_volt_ft3.aspx
Thanks for the instructions Petejoe. However the engine is already in the truck. I'm essentially taking over where somebody left off. (So I guess...
I'm also using a (0.32-ohms) 45,000-volt coil. (Pertronix Flamethrower III). So would I therefore NOT be needing to use a ballast resistor??
Ah good to know chaos10meter. Thanks!
Thanks. Any ideas on my wiring worksheet?? :)
Thanks Petejoe. The way this project has gone, the engine is actually one of the last things left to work on. But yes I was planning on just...
And if it isn't fairly obvious that this is my first go around with a ground up resto, this post should make it obvious....
Ok guys. I will be the first to admit, that when it comes to electrical, I have no idea what I'm doing and I'm officially at that point now. I've...
@RacerRick, are you sure?? Everything I've found so far lists the 933 as 4 quarts.
I've recently taken on the project of finishing my step dad's 56 Dodge C3. He passed away before he could finish it which is really sad because he...

The hood.
So I finally got to putting the hood assembly together and now that I have it on the truck it's obvious that I'm missing some hardware. I hooked...
Was wondering if anyone could tell me or post pictures of how the bumper assembly works on these trucks. Am I missing that thin strip that goes...
SOLVED: If anyone else has been wondering this at all, I found out that these two parts work for this scenario really well. From what I've learned...
Do Lokar cables replace these old mechanical kickdowns entirely? Like replacing the rod all the way down to the trans? I'm starting think so,...
Oh yeah I forgot to show the picture of the linkage as well. Even with the linkage, I can't make sense of it all. Especially the trans kickdown,...
Never hooked up an auto trans kickdown before so I'm totally confused on how this is supposed to work. This is a Holley 0-80508s 750cfm carb,...
Actually I was lucky! I called up quiet ride and the guy said that he had just finished installing this very kit on a 57 and he sent me pictures....
Perfect! That's exactly who I was looking at yesterday. I guess I was just a little confused, because to me it looks like their main product is...
