Keep in mind there is some adjustment allowed on the tie rods, if it is adjusted a bit to the passenger side, the pitman will hit the header. Mine...
I noticed a slight drop just above idle with longtubes over manifolds, but the power increase over the entire range up to valve float was great....
Hooker Super Comps work with the column shifter and the C4, not so nice with the AOD. Hooker 6901 seems to be a better fit for the car, but looks...
You need a higher stall converter after engine modifications. A larger camshaft will produce less low end torque, so the converter will *grab* at...
Probably the cowl or the support for the windsheild. Mine was both, with the windsheild support being the one that leaked into the car. My cowl...
Sweet. I just read this from start to finish. I got all happy thinking I could drop my 351w in there, alas... It'll be a while before I get to...
One thing, you used the 158 tooth flywheel? I had to use the 164 tooth flywheel with 28oz imbalance. A bit difficult to find.
I used my stock driveshaft as well, made a custom linkage for my column shifter that worked fine until my header swap. I then used a custom cable...
Sounds like you're local shops are a bunch of chumps. Find someone else.
I'm in for the next purchase... I hate I missed this one.
I'm stuck, I started a project that won't let my car run until its finished. I know what yer sayin bud, I've been there in the past and patch it...
The nickel content of various blocks has been the subject of many a debate. The low tension oil rings, on the other hand, help that crosshatch...
The only reason I recommended oversized pistons was to keep it a perfect match, let the machine shop make up the difference. All pistons are not...
I found the 3/32 wheels don't last too long, I use at least 1/8, much thicker than that and they don't last either. Of course I cut my floorpans,...
Good luck with it. As far as I know the big bellhousing C4 was never offered, and I'm certain the AOD was not. AOD's first year model was 85 as...
Both use a 4 inch bore, probably get 30 over and get a machine shop to match just for a perfect fit.
I didn't have any fitment issues with the AOD in a 74, but the tunnel is a bit larger, or so I've been told. Lokar makes a good TV cable, just...
My C4 speedo gear was pretty close with my AOD, I didn't change it. I was about 5mph off at 60mph due to a rear end swap, it stayed the same with...
I'd get something more along the lines of the Comp cams 268H, lets the engine breathe a little better, better exhaust setup. My setup, stock 74...
Depending on the build you could still bump 400lbs of torque with a 427. I'd get an itty bitty carb...
