I’ve tried my usual decoding sites and both came back saying that because of the plant it was made at their tool doesn’t work. Any help is appreciated! I did decode the VIN but if it helps I’ll provide that too Hoping to see if the broadcast sheet is behind the rear seat tomorrow VIN...

Helping my friend with a new to him 69 Satellite. The dash pad is cracked in many places and probably the worst part of the interior. I’m trying to help him remove it without removing the windshield (hopefully that’s possible?). I can’t really find any videos or instructions on the screw...

I have been looking at new cars lately and trying to compare engines which made me start thinking how this process went for mopars back in the day. For instance did the 383 have less issues than a 318? Was the 440 more reliable than the 340/360. Same thing with transmissions? I’d imagine the...

Hey all so I’m having a heck of time trying to tune this built 360 that’s new to me. Every other vehicle I’ve timed with this timing gun had the original motor in the car and was super simple. I’d point my innova 3568 timing gun at the harmonic balancer, see the line and then adjust the...

Appreciate the help! (And all the other answers). If I just timed the engine and tuned the carb would hooking up a PCV valve require me to retune anything?

So the car is new to me and the supposedly the engine was rebuilt recently with less than a few hundred miles on it. After driving it and popping the hood I notice that there is smoke coming from both breathers on both valve covers with a little bit of oil getting into the valve covers too. I...

So from what I read on previous posts most small blocks run well around 12-14 initial 34-36 all in. I haven’t checked the timing yet but it’s running a little rough. Idling at 1100rpm, stalling out when put in reverse and stalling at stop lights. So there might be some carb tuning that needs to...

Just wanted to update and let anyone that finds the thread know it was the pump. Lots of good tips here if it wasn’t. Can’t believe the coincidence of the pump failing but maybe it ran dry for a second and was damaged or just really at the end of its life.

Thanks I found one on Amazon for $100. So we’ll see. Any idea why they come with two gaskets? In case I destroy one? https://a.co/d/eEdzFo3

I think it might be the fuel pump all. For the life of me I can’t find a replacement to the below Carter online anywhere. Do those numbers mean anything to anyone? I bought a cheap replacement just to see and it seems to suck fuel but isn’t fitting flush. The engine is a 360. 69029K04A

Managed to puncture my old gas tank so I replaced it today. The fuel line was fairly new and so is the pump. Got all new gaskets and seals but reused fuel sending unit. The fuel gauge works fine still but I can’t get gas to the carb. I tried pouring some gas in the carb as I have someone turn...

Thanks I’ve been looking and found some. I just figured that if those holes are for the scoops I could just drill through the underside to the top. Unless I still should measure it out or if drill from the underside causes more damage.

So I bought these hood scoops from vans auto and noticed my Satellite hood has a few holes in it that look like they line up with the hood scoops. Just wondering if that’s actually the case before I drill through or if it’s just a coincidence. I did see a black GTX recently (photo below) and it...

It’s a 67 Satellite. 15” Rims. I have to be honest I’m not sure about lug spacing or offset or how much that matters. I would like to dress up the wheel a bit and I’ve seen tons of caps online but I just have no idea how they fit or go on….This is my attempt at at to dress the rims up a bit...

Thanks that helped me unearth the broadcast sheet of 57 years

Alright guys I thought this would be easier but for some reason I can figure out how the back seat is removed. I thought it would just pop out (I don’t see any bolts in rear from the trunk locking it in). I just don’t want to break it. Is it just really stuck? I could’ve sworn it just pops right...

These are on my 67’ Satellite. I’ve been looking for a nice set of cragers but until then I’d like to see if I could get these to shine up a bit. I haven’t had much luck with my usual mother’s mag and aluminum polish. Just wondering if I’m wasting my time.

I should’ve asked earlier but is there any reason I can’t use my old vent line with the new tank? Or do I need to order a new large and small?

Thanks! If my current seals are like new on my regular satellite gas cap any reason I can’t just reuse those and bolt the flip cap on? Or is it not really a bolt on when it comes to using the same seals that are already there?

Any idea how much of pain it’ll be to try and upgrade my standard satellite gas cap to the flip cap on the GTX models? I found one on vans auto (below) but can’t tell if it comes with the necessary seals. Also have no idea how it gets installed. I assume I’ll need to make a few new holes in the...
