    Electric Choke Draining Battery?

    Stupid question coming... I rewired the choke to switched power so that is not longer a problem. However, during my investigation I took off the choke cap and "unwound" the spring. The carb is Holley 5170 I believe. Well ever since I did that I haven't had a properly working choke and am...

    Timing light and MSD ignition

    I have a MSD 6AL and MSD distributor and the first timing light I used was a really cheap unit from Harbor Freight and it worked well enough to get the car started. I later got a nice digital timing light to dial it in better, so if you have to upgrade your timing light it isn't a huge cost. You...

    Front sway bar end links

    Do you have a shop manual? I'd go look in mine but we're in different places. It might be in there. I'm not sure myself, but I'd imagine you don't want to over tighten them either considering you're wrenching down on rubber or polyurethane bushings. Whichever you have.

    H & R wheel adapter/spacers vs Ebay spacers

    Are you getting a good deal on the bullitts? I ask because you can buy brand new 17x8 bullitts that will fit your car with no need for spacers.

    Another tire fitment question

    Well I've already put the wheels on and they fit fine, turned them left to right and nothing interfered. The thing is I got 215s on them but they just don't look right. They look stretched across the wheel. So Ieither want to go to a 225 or 235 (235 if possible).

    Too hot of a thermostat?

    Hmm, I was thinking I had a hotter than stock thermostat. Maybe it was 195? Well either way it sounds like 190 is the way to go.

    Electric Choke Draining Battery?

    Ah good call, I suppose I just misread the instructions. Thanks :nice: Yep, just went back and read the instructions. Don't know how I missed that one it was clear as day. Man I feel like dolt, haha.

    Where can i get a complete granada break system...

    Speaking of, how can you identify the Granada brakes? I kind of wonder if the brakes on my car are actually Granadas. I think can only see a single piston on the caliper and the rotors are 11". Anyone know offhand what the rotor size of 67 OE brakes are?

    Electric Choke Draining Battery?

    Has anyone had this problem? Something was draining my battery so what I did was wired a tail light bulb in series with the battery to see if it would light up. It did, so I started pulling fuses. (Saw this tip on here from somebody). Second fuse I pulled was for the electric choke and the light...

    Another tire fitment question

    I know there have been a lot of these threads so please excuse me. I just want to make sure that I can indeed fit a 235/40/17 tire on the front of 67 coupe before I purchase them. The wheels I'm using are 17x8s and they have 0mm offset and 4.50" backspacing. Thanks :nice: EDIT: My...

    Too hot of a thermostat?

    I bought what I think was a 190* thermostat for my 67. My car has a mild 302 roller motor and I went with a hotter than stock thermostat because I had heard the engine will actually run better at higher temperatures. Stock is 160* or 180*? Anyway, what thermostat should I be running? Seems to be...

    Suspension Rebuild on a Budget

    Thanks for the tips guys, I think I'll give John a call over at OpenTrackracer. I might as well just do it all at once, probably be cheaper in the long run. Now I just have to fight off the urge to spend all my tax money on a suspension overhaul :D

    Suspension Rebuild on a Budget

    My suspension is really worn out on my 67, it squeaks, rattles, floats, sags etc. I don't have the budget to blow a ton of money on modernizing the current suspension so I'd like to do this on a slimmer budget. My goal for this is just to tighten up the ride, give it some better road holding...

    Offhand do you know the max temperature reading of them?

    Temperature sending units

    I'm using a 65 temperature sending unit on my 67 because my intake does not have a port large enough to use the 67s sending unit. My question is, are all the sending units calibrated to work on one another's temperature gauges? I ask because while the 65 does work my temperature gauge seems to...

    4 Speed Toploader Conversion Parts List

    Thanks for the response, I'll probably go with a cable clutch, at least for now. What I was trying to ask in my last post was, are there other pedal options besides stock? Can you use fox body pedals or any other kind?
