    JBA Headers Fitment Issue

    Great news! I'm glad it came together for you. There's nothing standard about 45 year old cars at this point; you have to tweak everything. Tim

    347 Install

    Thanks, I'm hoping to have it running by the end of the month. I'm putting on the RetroTek EFI, an Electric fan, and an MSD-6AL box, so I have a lot of wiring to do. Tim

    TCP- Manual R/P steering opinions please!

    Another TCP Manual Rack and Pinion satisfied customer. I would say the effort felt very similar to the manual box that I removed initially, but after the rack broke in some, the effort reduced. Also, I reduced the steering effort further by replacing the tie-rods with a Baer Tracker Bump Steer...

    302 Performance Parts - Washingon DC area

    Price reduced to $750.00 for the whole running engine loaded with great performance parts! The bottom end is high milage, but it still runs strong. Tim Yea, they're iron heads, so they would not be cheap or easy to ship, sorry.

    Need help with the clutch pedal spring...

    Put it in a vice and pull the spring apart, insert quarters inbetween the coils until you have the length you need for installation. Then pull the quarters one at a time with plyers after you have installed it. Tim

The bottom end has over...

    T&L Engines F-up...

    Yea, I've read through most of that thread and another thread on the GT40 kit car forum. A lot of people disappointed with delivery dates, but they are mostly on more customized engines. A lot of people that ordered the standard engine offered seem pleased with performance and delivery. Tim
