The 69 B body is considered a 5 passenger car, no? The rear bench has lap belts for 3 passengers, and the storage clips for 3 lap belt latches. Is there supposed to be 3 lap belts on the front bench seat as well? If not, why are there storage clips for 3 lap belt latches on the front bench seat?

Is safe to assume that the camshaft does not make contact with the plug ever? I could do a mock up tomorrow with stuff that I have out in the shop but this is something that I've never heard anyone discuss. My concern is related to the upcoming cam swap due to it being a roller design.

The oil pump drive/load is pushing the cam back. The lobe/lifter orientation is to push forward & counteract that force. Cam plug. Not so far in that it contacts the cam. Use silicon to seal it. It is only subject to a small amount of blowby force.

Hey!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Cam plug depth. Yeah, not a real exciting topic but I'm curious. Here is the depth I had in my 440/493, as noted when I pulled it in 2022 to rebuild. You can see, the edge of the plug is near the edge of the hole in the block. When I knocked in the new plug after getting the engine back...

I got a story about Will O' the Wisp. Growing up near Tulsa there was a late night movie program on local TV hosted by a guy who called himself Mazeppa. Real name Gaillard Sartain. My friend and I thought he was the funniest guy in the world. My friend's dad was a show business agent. We went...

I agree with the bulkhead connections and the steering column plug/wiring. I'm kind of old school. I turn the key on. When I couldn't get a car to crank over, I used a jumper cable from the battery + to the starter cable at starter relay to crank it. If I wasn't getting spark, I put a wire with...

You have to weld the bracket in. Do not believe that auto cars have that bracket, assuming that this guy is converting an auto to a 4-speed.

makes a lot more sense to me now, Doug. My car utilizes a much more mundane center-sump oil pan, that offers much better access to the stock bell housing opening at the converter. Thanks again!

Maybe the arm was bent and it was forced on? Its hard to tell without seeing it.

Putting the nose on my Daytona prior body work and paint. Was wondering what the nose gap would ruffly be? 5/8" or 3/4"? thanks

It goes to show you, that sometimes you win, and sometimes you lose. Here I was thinking that purchasing an aluminum speedo delete block off was trick and lightweight and come to see, that it is actually heavier than the homemade plug that I fabricated out of an original speedo cable housing...

Fwiw, I don’t intend to use the chrome one

You've done your share of waiting, you planned ahead, you deserve to be taken care of... Any vendor who doesn't see it that way needs to find a new way to make a living...
