IMO, You should always use a thread chaser and not a tap. Recommend to use thread lubricant on the chaser too. Helps collect and hold any debris in the chaser’s channels.

So sad that happened.... my condolences to yourself and your friend's family.

Sounds to me like the thread galled up just the same way that stainless steel does when you go in dry. That gets ugly fast. Careful with the application of heat if that's the way you go when extracting the broken bits.

Can anyone tell me what causes this? I replaced all battery cables and terminal posts about 3 years ago. Within last 12 months cleaned and lubed cable ends. Batteries are Mopar and correct for the truck. 2007 Ram 2500 5.9 Cummins. Truck sits for months sometimes. Usually just use for trailer and...

As a follow up, the Classic Industries harness is the OER brand. I had to call OER to get the info on the harness, which is made overseas. It doesn't look too bad, but as one reviewer noted, the fuse holder metal is not as thick/strong as the original, the rivets holding the terminals to the...

That is cool !

To me the original bolts are always the way to go. I wonder if the threads were even correct on those bolts.

How do you know? He could have had a medical emergency, lost brakes, etc.

"Angle finder" is a free app on your Iphone.

Sorry your friend got killed. Prayers for him and family.

Size 4 fit on my 85 g bodies, same one on my 65 Coronet.

Not fretting over it but I'm taking my time and had a certain 10:1 ratio in mind no gaskets are ordered yet, I want to cross my t's and dot my i's. I'm likely just going to shelve that manifold and get a new Edelbrock. The poor fitment of that manifold clears up a lot of issues I had with I...

I could be wrong but i think that hole in the bulge plate is to access the bolt that fastens the main part of the console to the front console bracket. The photo below is an auto console but the manual console still attaches to the front bracket in the same area. The hole will be covered up by...

Another missed thread!! Makes me want to put my 66 together!!! But....doubt that's going to happen. :(

A 0.050" gasket with all else the same would result in 9.997:1 CR. It is not worth fretting over for that small of a change. But, if you want to see numbers: 0.060" Thk = 9.674 0.050" Thk = 9.997 0.045" Thl = 10.087 0.040" Thk = 10.200 The 6pk manifold could have been milled and they did not...

How do you have enough room for the metering block on the rear carb? I like the stock diagram set up. Really don't care for the GM set up.

Still available? @Sedbld

Sorry I phrased that poorly. Original as in "made by Mopar" but not original to the car. The car did have the original 14" steelies and full covers with the pseudo knockoff centers when I got it, and those suckers held on REALLY well haha.

:thumbsup: Many thanks ! Great job with the Scrubbing Bubbles aka "Pour La Douche" Gotta laugh at that one.
