    Rallye Hood

    The different emissions decal lends towards the hood being swapped when new on the lot or nearly new when they would be on the wrecking yard. Ever work at a car dealership and see the swapping that happens to sell a car? Lots of it went on. I got to do a good amount of it.

    Caliper Mounting Bolt Torque Specification

    Is that the bolt that holds the caliper bracket to the spindle? Do you have pin calipers or the slider type.

    Caliper Mounting Bolt Torque Specification

    @Moparfiend I looked at the 70 Plymouth service manual. The tightening reference part you have there is at the bottom of the 1970 A body with 4 piston fixed caliper section. Those calipers are bolted together thus the "caliper assembly bridge bolts" b-bodies don't have those. The the floating...

    A12 headlights super dim

    System voltage, or darn close. You compare it to the battery volts. Should be low/mid 14's A fully charged battery is 12.6 What is your charging voltage? Maybe it's not charging and that's why the lights are dim?

    A12 headlights super dim

    The paint on the metal will not bother the ground. The ground connection is made from the bolt head to the terminal, and to the body through the threads of the bolt. The factory never removed paint at grounds and they made millions of cars that made it through warranty just fine. Remove a...

    Abandoned Superbird

    After driving she says "Runs a little rough, I think it needs to be cleaned out and stepped on a little." She already did that 100 times.

    1970 318, Rockers installed on wrong side

    The camshaft profile is where your missing vacuum went. Probably didn't hurt the heads. Could have worn the guides or valve stems. Since it's not oil fouling the plugs put the rockers on correctly and run it. The power brakes being stiff is not good, and could be dangerous. Crashing is not...

    New Mufflers for a mid 60s B-Body

    Don't count on that. We can see right through them! Have ear protection ready for first drive, and surely when the packing is gone.

    1970 318, Rockers installed on wrong side

    I has a single plane aftermarket intake and headers. It could have a bigger cam with low vacuum. Can you measure the total valve lift at the retainer? How hard was the guy running this engine? How much RPM is the question. What rear gears?

    If you have a 68 big block with AC car this may help you out

    Yes. Sorry. You've got it right. I'll tell the Doc to adjust the meds again! LOL Yes that water pump pulley is correct. Here is a photo of a 1961 413. Alternator mounts different than 1968.

    What does this mean? (Video enclosed)

    Normal. Look in your service manual electrical section. To do charging system retests it uses 1200 RPM in many instances. It doesn't fully charge at idle speed. They made millions of cars like this and they made it through the warranty period and decades after. Not a problem. It's better...
