This is a great break down. Much thanks. I am intending to try the big exhaust manifold off a 5.9 Jeep pretty soon. I still need to swap K frames. Whoever owned the car before me cut out the spool mounts and welded in old school biscuit mounts. UGH, and I don't want to mess with the...

That is perfect. Driver side manifold on mine is wrong. It is a center dump which explains a couple things. 76 Volare Roadrunner. Thanks!

I am looking for a picture of a stock F body V8 driver side exhaust manifold. Pretty sure the one on my car I am restoring is a truck manifold. TIA!

The linkage being messed up is the only thing that makes sense here. What I would do is get it up in the air on jack stands and disconnect the tranny linkage at the tranny. Then I would try going into reverse by just moving the shift lever at the tranny and see if it works correctly. Try all...

A while back I picked up an 80 Aspen 225 /6 car. The price was right to add to the backyard junkyard. Car was a survivor and was in pretty good shape in this case. It ran and drove and I followed my brother as he drove it to my place. He said it ran pretty good but the timing was messed up or...

Hardest thing I have ever done on an Fbody. Drilling out the spot welds didn't work. Had to cut length wise at the split. Had to drill out the retaining rivet. It would not budge at all. Then the joy of trying to get the original end off after the rivet removal was a beast too. I wish you luck...

If you don't find louvers at Carlisle let me know. I have a couple sets of the vertical louvers.

Reply, yes there is. The firewall changes. On AC cars there is bulge on the upper passenger side of the firewall.

Will do.

I have a 1980 in nice shape. Has a little rust but nothing major. /6 in AZ.

there were 2 spoilers. 76-77 were 1 piece. 78-80 was a 3 piece.

Bought my last set of springs from them. Really pleased with what I got. I went 5 stackers with B body centering pin and not extra height.

I love the M body platform. Drove an 80 for years. There is a bunch of stuff you can delete if you don't have emissions to worry about. get rid of the lean burn ignition is a good start. I believe there was an air pump and multiple cats too. If you want to stick with the 2 barrel see if...

Depending on what you want to learn there are a lot of us on here that can help you figure it out. That being said, first thing I always do on these cars (this is just me) is get an MSD 6a and better coil (Blaster 2 is fine, I have taken to using the ecoil from Pertronix) and loose the ballast...

I have seen a bunch of suggestion on this thread. But I have not seen anyone suggest adjusting the linkage at the tranny. With throttle at WOT the kick down lever should be all the way back. This is should be adjustable without having to redesign the whole system. If want me to I can try to...

This is what I used in my 76 RR. https://www.ebay.com/itm/125203718331 3 Row Radiator+Shroud Fan For 79~93 Dodge Ram D100 D150 W350 W250 Ramharger asi-autoparts (5122) So far so good. Hard to beat the price and it is 3 core.

The 1406 will work. More initial timing is good. On factory stuff we would set initial as high as we could till it fought to start. (Too far advanced) then backed it off 2 degrees. Make sure that all in (4k - 6500 RPM) you do not exceed 36 degrees total timing. There is a limited pump shot on...

Interesting, I will have to look that up.

Hi all, Ordered this on Amazon: Grant 846 Classic Series Nostalgia 15 inch Black Foam Grip 3-Spoke Design with Horn Button Steering Wheel. 1. It is drilled to move over the horn ring from the original Tuff wheel. In my case it lined up and mounted correctly. 2. The mounting holes from wheel...

If you think you have an ignition issue buy a non lean burn distributor and slap it in there. It will work on the 360 too. Disconnect the lean burn and set the timing at 10 degrees BTDC. Shouldn't take more then an hour to do. That will eliminate the ignition as the problem if it still...

Do you have emissions testing there? If not, pull the cats and get a dual exhaust setup. You could also pull the air pump which are notorious for seizing up.

How much patience do you have? Get in there with an angle grinder and a carbide bit. Maybe 5 minutes a bolt.

Pull that cap off and make sure the rotor is still good. I have had a couple times where a new rotor did not get the metal fire part clamped fully and you could move it with your finger. It will cause a problem. Does it sound like it is trying to start? Grab a spark plug and pull number 1...

Agreed!

Last time I posted about this car I was trying to figure out why I had no headlights. Turns out that at some time the bulkhead connector and been separated. When put back together it was done crooked and damaged 3 of the contacts. I built bypasses and now headlights work and so does the dash...
