There are myriad MII's to choose from, some good others a POS. I personally like Fatman which is many times stronger than the straight axle but of...
Get rid of the factory cross shaft and put a modern cable with an equalizer set up. We do this on every S10 conversion.
Andy, I worked in a shop while in college that did work on big rigs with 24v electrical systems. It was a termination offense to have ANY kind of...
Nate, Sure wish we were closer together as we have worked on exactly ONE VW in our shop. Was a Super Beetle Convertible and our upholstery guy...
DO NOT TITLE IT BY THE FRAME!!! The only time a customer got in trouble was when I followed the DVM rules and titled a 51 GMC pickup as a 74...
Nate, You said it pops out of third gear but is it a three or four speed trans? I have a couple of 1937 4 speeds but have no idea if they would...
Stick it in and run it. New bushings will keep the spring eye bolt centered for a long time. 3.73 is perfect if you ever go with an OD...
Very poor design which I DO NOT recommend to anyone but here's how to check to see if it will even give correct amount of turn. Remove tie rods...
Guys, Do a search on remote "mount brake booster". No reason the brake set up needs to be in factory location. On many of our street rods the...

The drawback on EFI for a Stovebolt engine is that no EFI I know of is offered for a 1 barrel intake. Most opt for a 4bbl intake with a 4bbl to...
The old stovebolt engines are good at what they were designed for: good torque at a low rpm but the TERRIBLE head design and siamesed intake and...
Haven't used a point distributor since I moved out of the cave but when I did I set the points on the GM top weight BEFORE I put on the rotor. Now...
He can PM me as I'm sure there are some in the rear end pile. Supposed to rain from today (Sunday) through Thursday and they're in a swamp so...

Would help if you gave the make, year, and engine. By the electric temp sensor it must be a 1956 or newer and by the carb it is an I6 but what?
These were used before LocTite was available. Use red as Nate suggested and the bolts WILL NOT back out unless heated. Think of the lock tabs as...
