Nice. If you want to cruise sometime or meet up at a car cruise let me know! My C body isnt in Pittsburgh at the moment but my dart and charger are.

Welcome, where are you in the Pittsburgh region? I am on the border of kennedy/Mckees Rocks just to the west of the city

I believe the difference would be that running a wire from the alt stud to the starter relay would not really "bypass" the ammeter. The ammeter would still be in the circuit but if it fails it wouldnt leave you stranded. However, in doing so not all the power is running through the ammeter...

I ended up getting the Milwaukee M12 1/2 drive that I think is a stubby(?). I was rebuilding the suspension on a 56 packard and I dont have lift so I only have so much room under the car and the floor and only so much room between other components. It fit great, made cake work of the job and...

you can call or go on their website and use the chat feature. But you basically tell them what your car is and they will tell you what it came with. They should also be able to inform you what other spring options your car could have depending on engine or body configuration (couple vs...

I also did the springs in a 70 polara convertible. They are not bad to do. Just make sure you brace the body on a jack stand as well as the axle. I did both at once so I needed an additional jack stand under the pumpkin to keep the axle from rotating on the U joint while I worked. A compact...

I had seat covers made by them. Again took two years to finally get them. Id agree with the you have to stay in constant contact with them in order to get anything out of them.

Submit them here? or email them to you?

So I was finally able to finish up the lighting upgrade on the polara. It involved getting a custom headlight harness made by Rob Yule that included a third relay to run the superlite directly off of the alternator. I used headlights spec'd out by @slantsixdan at Daniel Stern Lighting. I also...

According to the 69 & 70 FSM I do have the correct size jets (.101 primary, .095 secondary) and the correct rods. I do not know about the springs. According to the FSM the timing can be set at 5 deg BTC on auto 440 cars or for 70 either 5 of 2.5 deg BTC depending on standard or high...

Yes on the 4966S I put the .089 in the primary side and the .095 back in the secondary side. So that means when the car didnt mind 12 BTC the primary jets were .006 in diameter bigger. So go that size or half that with the change in jets? Thank you for the propane torch idea. Ill give that a...

Hello Folks, I am having a tuning issue on a 70 polara and I think the issue is carb related. My guess is either the springs for the rods are too light or I have a vacuum leak. Here are the details: The car is a 70 polara convertible with a 440, 727, and 3.23 suregrip. The engine was rebuilt...

On top of getting the superlite in and working there was a bunch of other work that was completed over winter on this polara. One being new rear springs with a 1" increase in height as well as new tires. The car was also aligned. below are some pictures I took to illustrate how the beam...

Superlite

similar thing happened to me. Sorry for your loss

I dont know how the 69's are wired, but for the 70's the super light should only be able to come on with the headlight switch turned on, superlite switch on and the dimmer switch in the "high beam" position. the head lights can be on with the key off. And since the the super light is fed by...

For using modern relays you can get all the necessary components from the theelectricaldepot.com. You will need 2 of their 5 prong relay connectors, one SPST relay, one SPDT relay. and their associated terminals. If your harness is set up for the original relays you can easily make an...

The engine bay side was a flat terminal, similar to the one used for the pink wire that powers the super light relay. So put that terminal on one end of the wire and put it into the connector that attaches to the bulkhead. Then just string the wire along the inner fender up to the super light...

Next the wiring harness can be made. These terminals are Packard 56 style, I got mine from the theelectricaldepot.com. I got the differing colored insulated wires from amazon. Page 8-84 of the FSM shows a very good wiring diagram on how to make the harness: To power the super light relay I ran...
