    Rapid fire pops out the carb, new cam time?

    The old standard flat exhaust lobe test is a brief WOT snap, if you get poppoppop the cam is suspect... Strangely with a bad exhaust lobe you can bring throttle in slowly & while the engine may run rough it rarely backfires... But snap the throttle in neutral & you get poppoppop....

    Pinion Yokes - What to Use

    The nice thing is both the 741 $ 742 use shims to set bearing preload... So you can swap the yoke without effecting the bearing preload... 7290/1330/1350 all are an easy swap... 489 uses a crush sleeve so swapping the yoke can be a problem... To do it right you need to disassemble the axle...

    What's it Worth 69 Charger 500

    Cool project, rare, but how much is missing? Console sitting between the seats and a floor shift column in the passenger seat but a but a column shifter bolted in points to a guy who was building more to what he desired than what the tag shows... 440 has A/C brackets but the car isn't A/C so...

    Is this 440 balancer for an internally balanced or externally balanced engine?

    It appears to be an aftermarket damper... Wide outer ring but the pulley mounting location is likely standard OE dimension... Some of those use removable weights in the back side so without removing it it's impossible to say... Treed by RemCharger...

    1968 Plymouth GTX

    I think the spacer is to long, the reason I thread the mast in early is to give me a way to hold the lower portion from above... The flats on the mast should be fully above bezel, in fact the piece the mast threads into should be exposed 1/8"-1/4"...

    1968 Plymouth GTX

    So, the curved rocker blades fit in slots in the base of the antenna, then that is installed from below the fender. I typically screw in the mast so I can hold the lower parts up from above the fender, then the top bezel keys into the two notches in the antenna hole in the fender & the blade on...

    Differences in AC brackets, C body to B body?

    Shorter spacer.... I've used over a dozen #4700 kits... I use the 69-71 brackets, they are easier to find... You have the 68 & earlier, use it... Just gotta have the right water pump, drivers outlet, there are two versions.. Early water pumps have the bolt boss below the thermostat these take...
