    Need a new radiator, '66

    Need a new radiator, '66

    Well, I'll certainly hear what they have to say, but part of me implicitly trusts big business/Summit and dedicated national radiator shops more than local ones (which is unfortunate). And still am not sure on my 'preferred' order... X # of rows, brass/aluminum/copper, etc. Crossflow is better...

    need info on Heavy Duty/Police Interceptor 5.0 water pumps

    As part of a 3G alternator/5.0 serpentine swap on my 66'/351w, I'm planning to add a HD 5.0 water pump. I pulled the water pump from a late 80s... something (I think it was a Tbird, but it mighta been a bronco.. been a while and we were yanking stuff from several different cars). It has a...

    Need a new radiator, '66

    Well, I've needed one a while. Took my car out last weekend and it was running pretty well, but overheated. Actually, I'm positive the reason it overheated was the thermostat (it was literally a 2 mile drive and the motor wasn't even hot to the touch but i boiled off damn near all the coolant...

    Installed the stereo into my 66'... questions...

    3g alternator install... walk through?

    What my dad said in the email this morning (he had taken it home to edit some battery wires and to take the pulley off with his impact wrench): " Did Steve tell you that I took the pulleys off and they are not interchangeable – the shaft on the older versions is longer and very slightly...

    3g alternator install... walk through?

    just got the fuse and box for it from PA performance, so that hsouldn't be an issue. however, what did you guys do about the pulley? i had been planning on taking the old pully off the original-style alternator, but it doesn't fit the 3g. can i use the 3g's pulley (if so, will i need a...

    Sound deadening install questions

    I was wondering if anyone who has gone through the process of installing sound deadening into their classic could share what they did/learned. First... if anyone knows the proper amount of insulation for a classic (square footage), I'd like to know so I order the right amount. I'm not...

    getting hot at stop lights and when shut off

    220-230 is where you *start* worrying (if it hits that and you're in traffic or its 110 out, then you should stop). New cars are designed to run in that zone (for emissions purposes), but old ones weren't. 210-220 for short stints isn't a big deal though. Getting the right thermostat will...
