    TH350 Cooling lines

    That’s what I was thinking. Best to have em far away as possible from the heat. Are ya running an external trans cooler & the radiator tank?

    TH350 Cooling lines

    Thank you👍 That’s the info I was looking for. I think there are adapters already on there already on the factory lines I guess NPS to a flare fitting?

    TH350 Cooling lines

    It’s gonna be a mild 461 street engine I’m gonna have him beef up the th350 when it gets redone. I think it should hold up fine. That’s good to know! Thank you 😊 I bought the SS brake lines & fuel lines from inline. I wasn’t sure about the clearance with a bbc & headers. You think it’ll clear...

    TH350 Cooling lines

    Hey Jack Good to see ya still here kicking around. 😁 yeah I tried to give it to him so he’d have more interest but he’s busy getting his act together finding a career path (union electrician or job w MTA) He was using it as a DD for awhile when my 95 Surburban I gave him to drive needed work &...

    TH350 Cooling lines

    Hey, Long time no post.. My trans cooling hard lines are rusted a bit & leaking. I want to change em to black braided lines & mount them to frame to clear headers & for bbc swap. Has anyone done this recently? Does anyone know what size fittings I would need for the trans side & radiator side...

    need help Oldsmobile 350 Edelbrock kickdown cable throttle cable bracket

    This is the one I used http://www.summitracing.com/parts/edl-8036/overview/ Its for sbc but maybe you can adapt it to fit. I don't think they make one olds specific. Whats the distance between the back 2 manifold bolts on your olds? i can measure mine to see if its close. I had to drill a few...

    lowered the elco and the tires rub terrible

    Maybe you can clearance (aka beat em with a BFH) the inner fenders? Or if ya can find some IROC rear rims to bring em in a bit. 50 series tires might help.Those 60s look kinda tall. I had 245/50s on the front and 255/50s with Iroc rims on my 80 Z28. But I know they have much larger wheel wells...

    Aftermarket head unit install. Which mounting bracket?

    I did the same as above with stock bezel. I'll post a pic. I adapted a metal mounting bracket I had from my G series van to hold the back up. I was looking at all the g-bodies at local car meet and it seemed they all had that extra adapter and the unit sticking out 1/2" or so. Looked like sh*t..

    Rochester Dual Jet Air Cleaner Help!

    I don't think anyone even makes an adapter for that. I took my dualjet off. was gonna rebuild it but the throttle shaft was all sloppy and not worth the effort.. If you have the stock unit, why not just clean it up and spray it with some satin black.

    Thought my car fax was hysterical.

    There's no way to re-title a car in PA? I always wondered how to do that and what the process is.

    Thought my car fax was hysterical.

    Lol.. yep that happens.. I wouldn't advertise it though as that it is totally illegal. Also the real vin is stamped on other parts of the vehicle.

    cutting factory springs

    Wow! that's a great idea! So you cut it in place without having to remove anything but the tire and the shock? If I read that correctly..

    Column shift to floor shift

    That's cool.. Mine's far from a show car too. Don't go to the shows much either. Captree is just an impromptu meet up. People get there at the crack of dawn down there. Everything from rat rods to muscle cars, tuners and lamborghinis.. I usually go early and have breakfast as that's when the...

    Column shift to floor shift

    You need to find the arm from a floor shifted car that connects the bottom part of the column under the hood to the linkage on the transmission. If you have headers there might be clearance issues. Or.... Find a manual shift column that has the lever on the column to disengage the key and has no...
