My city (~120k warm bodies) has O'reilly's(5), Autozone(4), Advance (3), NAPA(4), within 5-7 miles of my house. I typically visit O'reilly's exclusively for "hurry up" stuff. Better staff, oil recycling, part selection, etc. They were the only one in town that had a starter in stock for my car...

Is the shifter in 1st/3rd in this photo? Looks great! I ended up buying this: https://www.holley.com/products/drivetrain/shifters_components_and_accessories/shifter_sticks/parts/5384106 I built my own console, so I can put the hole wherever I need it. I did some sketchy measuring and came to the...

I'm ignorant of LS and turbo issues, but if you are running twin turbos (intercooled I assume), that's a lot of heat under hood. Do you have any hood vents, cowl hood, etc. to allow more airflow through the engine bay? The intercooler could obviously be another airflow obstacle as well.

Two under construction pics-

Thanks D. It's not up to skunkworks quality level, but I learned some things along the way. The cup holder sections are just vinyl over 1/4" luan on top of the MDF, squeezed into the surround. I left the padding short to accommodate the inserts. I think the TKX shifter will land about the front...

Been working on this one for a while- (I think I started it during COVID lockdown?), but wanted to finish it for HRPT. First swing at something like this, nothing sewn, only spray glue and staples, and the (cheap) vinyl i bought had almost zero stretch. 1/2" MDF, 1/4" luan, and a little 1/2"...

Don't mean to be prick, but your clamps are backwards https://absoluterescue.com/training/never-saddle-dead-horse/

Checking out Holley's Memorial Day and clearance sales today and happened upon this: https://www.holley.com/products/clearance_parts/parts/67510018 No idea what the diameter and spacing between the exhaust holes is???

For anyone who is using the TKX with the shifter in the original Tremec position, what handle did you use?

My 79 Cutlass

I'm in for the first three days with my stepson, then heading back home. We have a little trip planned on the 15th, so I need to get ready for that.

So, what you're saying is it's ready for Power Tour?

I have this pair that I blindly bought a few years ago from O. D. Showtime here on the forum. Unfortunately they are different from the ones on my 79 Cutlass. They are olive(?) green, but great shape. $10 plus shipping??? .

My employer provides prescription safety glasses to those of us with vision issues (old guys) and the tech does a gap check before approving a particular frame. 3/16" or less is the standard, I think. A face shield over the glasses definitely helps. Then you can have a gap for anti-fogging and...

I used these CH3220's, but had to mount them from the bottom to clear the grilles. Much easier if the gauge cluster is already out. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000JLBHLG/?tag=gbody-20 Rktpwrd and Injectedcutty have apparently used the brs35's https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001RNNX8U/?tag=gbody-20

Looks like Carter AFB. Apparently Edelbrock carbs are based on these.

I have lived in Kentucky and Indiana all my life (55Yrs.), owned about fifteen vehicles (1975to2011) and have never once had a vehicle inspection of any sort. It all sounds strange to me.

Unfortunately Hot Rod is headed the way of the dodo bird. I obviously don't know the details of Motortrend's financials, but it seems as if they are just trying to choke it out. It's been going downhill since Petersen sold it off. I loved Car Craft, and Muscle Car Review WAS my all time favorite...

I see you don't have a rear sway bar. I understand that you may not want to modify it much, but upgraded sway bars really helps the driving experience, even the factory F41 stuff would make a difference.
