Another option is to pull the dash and then mark and remove all wiring. Then correct everything. I did that in 2016 with my 1970 Fury. I removed all the black electrical tape and corrected each short and contact corrosion. I ended up keeping my fuse box and bulkhead connectors.

If you regard the fuel sending unit as resistance to ground, it is a fixed resistance to ground at a set fuel level. The only variable may be the current coming from the alternator. If the alternator is not putting out enough amps at idle, the fuel sending unit has less current to ground. The...

I was working on a 1971 Fury GT. I didn't have time for both. I later sold the GT because I couldn't find anybody local to do the bodywork and paint. It turned into too big a project. In retrospect, I wish I had kept the 1972 Fury III. Both cars were GY8. Love that color.

Agree on the Teeing & hose across the front of the engine. Does not look or function right. Should have bought a manifold with rear vacuum port.

Hi Regular This was my car until I sold it to a FCBO member in Pittsburgh. He put a lot of $ into the car to make it just what he wanted. Don't know why the sale. Really sorry to see. It is from Oregon, which explains lack of rust. It did have some body rust. See thread below. Don't know what...

Lewis, My machinist is 72. this is a story of downsized but not gone. He moved his machine shop to Hopewell, Virginia, mid 1970’s. Hopewell started charging personal property tax on machinery. Example: Cost $86000 for crank grinder. Hopewell Tax Rate: The 2024 tax rate for machinery and tools...

That was nice of you to care for the machine shop owner enough to give him an eye exam. Well done! Machine shops are closing in my area too. Owners are aging out and good employees are hard to find. The demand is there, because one shop has a message on his machine that he is so overwhelmed...

Sorry to miss. Need rear brake shoes 11x2. Ordering rear brake shoes through Craig. Hope you guys have fun!

I don't think so. I think it would have burned.

I don't think either ratchet or breaker bar will hurt the engine. At worst they'll strip the crank bolt hole, which may be NBD if you have to replace crank anyway. If you think the rings are causing the problem, another option is to pull the heads and hammer on top of the pistons with dowel and...

Reduce to $40

It will bolt right up. 318 is low compression, so you may want to consider higher compression pistons in the future. Also, that rubber expanding seal in the side of the block is prone to leakage. Recommend you replace with a brass core plug. You can seal the core plug with Permatex #2.
