I guess by your response, that you have a closed mind and are unwillin to learn about some fundamental electrical issues of how things work or why.....knowledge is a wonderful thing and powerful suggestion....what don't you understand? Perhaps I can teach you something.....if you're willing to...

Your phrase: "but I am electrically challenged"........is an excuse....the fix....learn...the fundamentals of electricity such as Ohm's Law...which defines the relationship between voltage (E), current (I) and resistance (R). Yes...resistors have different values depending on application and...

OK....."they" state that it has ZDDP levels that exceed the limits for SM oil......BUT .....WHAT are the ZDDP levels that are exceeded??? Define the limits...without any numbers, how can comparisons be made?? It's like saying how high is up?? Without numbers the information is...

Zinc bearing oils, AKA Zinc Dialkyl Dithio Phosphate, the zinc and Phosphates are in molecular form and are not filtered out as the oil passes thru the filter media. Depending on brand of filter used, the MICRON filter material can vary an a micron = One micron in decimal form is 0.001...

You were correct....it was time to take out the trash.....all of which included your profundities and platitudes about obscure references to ignition system operation listed in unknown publications and references. The very least you should do is give credit to the author of the source you...

The usual way to modify a 4 speed transmission was to grind every other tooth off of the gears's brass synchro ring on the main shaft gear (2-3-4) and grind a steep bevel angle on the brass sliding sleeve on the corresponding main shaft coupling to allow the operator to shift without using the...

The gears, both on the main shaft AND their corresponding gears on the counter shaft (with the exception of the reverse idler gear) are in constant mesh. It's the synchro rings and sliding sleeve that couple the appropriate synchros to the gear selected take the abuse The grinding noise one...

She called and said: keep providing a critique aimed at those "self proclaimed experts" that have no clue as to how an ignition system is supposed to operate....both fundamentally and actually....using correct names for these components....... BOB RENTON

FYI....by adding volume to the intake manifold below the carb, will REDUCE the mixture VELOCITY by creating a pressure drop as the mixture expands.....and a slower mixture velocity can lead to uneven or non uniform cylinder filling. The idea is to keep the velocity high from the carb to the...

Truer words were never spoken........AN OUTSTANDING SYNOPSIS AND EVALUATION.......especially those contemplating a change and take their "buddies" word as gospel.......just my opinion of course........ BOB RENTON

But with a magneto, NO external wires or COIL is required or needed....the magneto is self contained...no external power is required .....the dwell and high voltage windings are all done internally.......no muss no fuss....be the first to show your buddies how simple and ignition system can...

The old electronic distributor (often called a dizzy, for those souls that do not know how to spell correctly) conundrum......how to connect two wires....which go to what terminal or source of power or ground or black or red???..... how about a magneto....which require no wire connections...self...

Question....are you planning on doing some arc welding with the 165 amp alternator? Definitely over kill for a 383 car with A/C...factory was only 46 amps. You do not need to accommodate all electrical loads only 50% of total with the diversity factor added in....it's ok for some of the power...

The BEST thing for you to do is use the information provided by 72roadrunnerGTX, for this gentleman has explained how the system operates, with examples. If you, personally, have any comments or questions of the application of electrical engineering and system calculations including of how...

Its highly likely that you were sold a newer "rebuilt" square back unit....that would require one (of the two field brushes to be grounded) especially if you only have one field wire connection to the original alternator....a green wire. (If it's a dual field and one field is not grounded, it...

WHY.....the replacement pump (8 vanes) will be just fine, as no one has x-ray vision to know whether you have a 6 or 8 vane pump.....besides the 8 vane pump will move more coolant, in both velocity and gallons/minute for best teat exchange......but if you want superior coolant circulation, a...

You must have misunderstood my reference.....the accelerator pump holes for the elastomer inlet valve and outlet passage are NOT drilled.....you do not need a pump gasket or housing mounting screws.....NOTHING IS NEEDED, except for the float, float inlet needle, float adjustment nut...

The pump boss is not drilled or machined for the elastomer valve. BOB RENTON

How would he seal off the fuel leak from the hole for elastomer valve

How about considering an API IsoVis # 46 HYDRAULIC OIL....alternate IsoVis #32 or Iso Vis #68 it's designed to use on vane pumps or slipper shoe pumps. It's blended with anti foam, anti wear additives plus it can operate at 200 degrees oil temp at 1500 psi...... BOB RENTON
