Thanks everyone. I kept thinking about an ELECTRICAL cure when a MECHANICAL one solved the problem. I moved the pivot point on the starter drive...
Didn't make it clear, this is for a key start set up on a straight 8 Pontiac and the starter drive gets to turning so fast before the teeth reach...
I know several of you know the number of the resistor in your head that is used to drop the voltage to a 6v starter solenoid so the drive doesn't...

My wife was in an accident last friday with a Mercury Grand Marquis which has a frame (same as a Crown Vic like the cops use or a Lincoln Town...
I use a gallon can with an electric fuel pump mounted on it. On the outlet hose I can use whatever fitting the carb takes. This set up eliminates...

A little more info or better yet a picture would help. Is it barely touching or sitting down on top of the box? How much of a clash---1/8", 1/4",...
This is the interior that a customer chose for a 48 we did for him. I did not care for the seats which are swivel base units from a suburban that...
This may help a little. Find the center point of the triangle formed by the three lug bolts that the spare wheel mounts to. I'd hold a bare wheel...
