    Dust Shields for Disc Brake Conversions

    Is anyone putting miles on their performance brakes (that don't have dust shields) without seeing damage? Driving in the rain, down a gravel road, that kind of thing?

    Cost to rechrome a bumper

    Thanks, they are the same as R/T and Superbee. I checked AMD, they are not reproduced.

    Beware Fake NOS Parts

    I worked for Frank one summer and considered him a friend. I sucked as an employee, but he still was good to me. I did see the largest pack rat mess imaginable at his place in Columbus. Had no idea where anything was, and he'd get upset when you couldn't find something. I guess it caught fire...

    Cost to rechrome a bumper

    I just looked on AMD's website and didn't see bumpers listed for a 70 Dodge. And I also didn't see a listing for 68-69 Plymouth bumpers, which is scary as it is a popular year. I have AMD bumpers on my 69 GTX and like the quality.

    Valve guides

    Teenage me took my 318 heads to the machine shop and they gnurled the guides. Never any notable issues over the six subsequent years and many miles of use and abuse.

    Valve guides

    I thought the holes were sized and the liner pressed in. Never heard of threading the hole for a screw in liner.

    Hardwood floor questions

    Only concerns with tile are: Everything you drop on it, breaks. Weight. This is an old building - 1952 - and the floors are...wavy, as it is. Add a layer of backer board, then mastic, then tile and grout.... I've done plenty of tile in my day. My old house, I tiled the basement when I...

    SEM trim black and a good satin black are almost identical to me.

    Hood Pins : What Where When and Why?

    I came to the same conclusion, and took it out. Bob also sold me the car for less than the value of the NOS trim he'd put on it. He didn't always make the best decisions, but we are able to laugh about it over 40 years later.

    Tile. Rental house 2 came with tile. It's on it's third tenant since with very little damage. Rental house 1 got tile the last time it got turned over. We are in the process of evicting that tenant, so we haven't seen the condition, but I'd bet no or very little damage. I'd be scared of...

    Hood Pins : What Where When and Why?

    Not a good idea if you have to pop the hood to put out a fire.

    Hood Pins : What Where When and Why?

    The first time was a home taped high bias Maxell UDS II with the other side "Kill Em All". That one hurt. The second time was a prerecorded version as above. The third time was another home made, this time a TDK SA. I believe the B side of that one was "Garage Days".

    Dust Shields for Disc Brake Conversions

    I bought a Dr Diff front disc system (not the ones you’re looking at) and it came with dust shields, so I put them on

    Hood Pins : What Where When and Why?

    My friend Bob used a plastic coated cable with a large padlock when he owned Baby Blue. Served same purpose as hood pins when he raced the car.

    Which adhesive is better?

    X2, I've put a lot of stuff on wood. Contact cement, felt with a THIN coat of white glue.

    Which adhesive is better?

    Exactly! Kinda like saying "I'm gonna paint something, what paint do I use?" !!!

    Hardwood floor questions

    We have hardwood throughout that we refinished 20+ years ago and its still in great shape in the high use areas. HOWEVER, I would never consider it in a kitchen due to spills, dropped pots, dishes, etc. . We did a full kitchen remodel four years ago, ripped multiple layers of various products...
