That’s a typical scam. I don’t have any but my buddy does. If the “fellow” is on a forum, what’s their history. Caution lights going off for me.

Ya get the wheels off? Seems strange with the axle hanging that they won’t go on. Craig

I had the exact same issue with a 904 I rebuilt. It was a bad governor valve. Cleaning didn’t fix it and the shuttle moved freely. I had to replace it. As already mentioned, take it back but, the warranty is probably for the PO. It’s pretty easy to get the tail shaft off. I don’t remember...

Here…Electric choke wire on an Edelbrock 4BBL

Does an AMC have a ballast resistor because IDK. Usually a Mopar is tapped into the blue ign wire. Really any switched power lead will work. If you’re concerned, you can fuse or relay the choke wire. My 2cents. Craig

I’m guessing you could do this with the uf scale meter similar to a capacitor. IDK what the specifications are on a condenser. Good thread though, I’m going to do some searching. Craig

They look pretty good to me. How many miles? If you are burning that much oil they would be blacker. Are you sure there isn't an oil leak? The tip is about 1/2 way so the heat range is OK. The iridium I've had looked like yours. I wouldn't worry about the dark around the insulator, it usually...

It will fix itself after a few trips. If its not overheating, which it doesn't sound like it, you probably put to much antifreeze in it. I run my 440 just covering the tubes. never pukes. Craig

Few more things. How is the down shift from 3rd. If it’s smooth, I don’t think you have a synchro issue. When the shift to 2nd is complete, the synchro is out of the equation. The short lever should be at the rear of the transmission. Also, the levers should be in alignment at the column when...

Do you have a part or casting numbers? I have three /6 and a bunch of parts.

I had that issue with my A745 in my 64 D100. You can get the spring washers at the hardware store for the column. I had to hunt for the grommets when I rebuilt mine. I used some sorts of clutch grommet for one of the thick ones. I don’t remember which one though. It shifted very smooth without...

How many cars today? I was going to drive down but, had too many chores.

Two other things not mentioned. The bell can be kinda hard to find but as MTMoparfan65 said, machine work can fix that. Warning that if you hot dog that 3rd gear in an OD, it may result in a scrambled mess. My 2 cents.

Good ideas provided. Move that fuel line before welding. You probably already know that or just bolt the extensions on.
