    WANTED Dodge Aspen R/T aluminum rim center caps

    I´m looking to buy a set of these center caps. The cap is cone- shaped and doesn´t have any kind of text on it. Someone could try to post a photo of the rims with the caps to know what I´m talking about:) I bought the rims but did not think about the caps were missing.

    Cylinder Head Sleeves on carbureted engines

    Has anyone ever used/ heard someone used cylinder wall repair sleeves? I saw these things on Rockauto for about 10 bucks a piece, but I can´t help wondering how are these installed? I know that in tractors and large trucks the cylinders are totally replaceable, but in our cars as well?

    My teacher struck me with a good one this time

    I was writing my theory part of my project Aspen and then got caught on a question: how can one unassemble a unibody chassis without tearing down everything else? I mean, I gave my teacher a hypothesis that I could first buy and recondition all of my parts, such as the engine, transmission...

    Aftermarket Over/Underdrive units for A727 / A904

    I red about these kind of "third planetaries" that come behinds the transmissions rear end, before the tail. Are these any good?
