    Painting Victor Jr.'s

    bnickle, not good advice. I have painting cars and parts for nearly ten years now, and on aluminum you WANT a self etching primer. The areas around the ports can be painted, but the gasket surface itself should be left bare. Paint and primer will burn off around the ports themselves, and...

    Painting Victor Jr.'s

    If you want to paint the heads, then yes tape off all gasket surfaces. I think he is looking to make his engine appear stock guys, thus he is painting the heads to sort of hide the fact that they are aluminum. 87

    Couple cool pics...new suspension design

    Time frame...that's a great question. I've stopped trying to guess. It's basically me and another guy doing these right now, and the other guy is in the middle of building his first house. his wife is about 4-5 months pregnate, and the new Trophy Truck in the shop is supposed to be done in like...

    Couple cool pics...new suspension design

    Historic, I am not real sure what the legal aspects are with answering that question. We deal with performance parts all the time, and most companies include a disclaimer stating the products are for "off highway use only" What people do with it once they get it into their own hands...

    Couple cool pics...new suspension design

    The 67-70 kits are done. Our Bilstein shocks arrived early last week. Due to work, family, and it being the Holiday season, I have not had enough time to work on my car. We need a 67, 68, 69, or 70 running vehicle here in Lake Havasu so we can get these parts bolted up and tested. If...

    AFR 185's or 205's For 393 Stroker?

    I agree...185's on my engine as well. I did a port match to my air gap intake, and I don't plan on spinning mine any higher than 6 grand. 185's make more sense. 87

    The last time I ask for opinions, sorry but I need to:

    Pak, did your body guy tell you what he was going to charge to put it right? Did he feel that he could get the car back to as good as it was before? I really think you need to base your decision on the advice of those who know best. If your body guy says that the car is never going to be the...

    Opinion Please

    This is my feelings as well. For instance, my 70 Mach has the Shelby back end, except I filled in the indents on the end caps and trunk lid so they are smooth. I am also using the 69 stripe kit instead of the 70 mach 1 rocker panels. I blacked out all the chrome, and painted my bumpers to...

    Almost done with Randalls rack install and have a Q re: clearance

    I would run it, and see what happens. Drive it around some corners, take it over a couple bumps, then get under the car and see if it has rubbed anywhere. This saves you work that you may not even need to do. You only NEED enough space for the thing to rotate, and if nothing really flexes in...

    Autometer Electric Speedometer ?

    2Bav, I bought the 5" electric, and ordered the sender last week. No cable, recalibrate if you change gears...the best of everything. DO IT (in my best Starsky voice) 87

    69/70 Aftermarket Bumper??

    Anyone here ever buy a repop rear bumper for the 69-70 car, and have the thing stick out on both sides like 2" to far? Like a moron I never fit the stupid thing before I painted it, and when I bolted it up, it looks like my car has wings! Anyone else have this problem...and does anyone...

    dolfan, any news....

    Yes, we have received all our CNC'd parts, Bilstein is shipping our shocks this week, and we are finishing our jigs this week as well. I am BUSTING my butt trying to get my car to the point where we can run this stuff on my car here in town first, but I am not sure I will get it done in time...
