    The Best Carburetor?

    Quadrajet has always done right by me. Have one on the 454 and it works great. Every edelbrock I have had a been a huge pos. One on the 84 now sucks. Just haven't replaced it. Never had a holley so can't speak to them.

    Drove the 84 to work today. Nice and cool in the morning but back up in the 90's on the way home. Good Ole Texas weather for ya. Nice to jam the new system with subwoofer box. There was a bit of a break between songs then gobsmack love/hate/sex and pain came on and made me jump. Scared me and I...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Put the 82 on ramps so I could check out the transmission leak. Got side tracked and never got under to look. If it doesn't rain I look after work today. I didn't even notice how much fluid came out until I pulled back in the driveway. It's dripping off the pass side where the lines go so I'm...

    Nothing wrong with that! Don't let negative people keep you from getting a deal. Got many great deals on Facebook if that's what I think it means. Either way good for you!

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Took the 82 for a ride and discovered a transmission leak. Think it's one of the rubber lines. I didn't have them bend hard lines to save 300 bucks but looks like now I need to. Haven't looked into it yet but it was dripping in the headers so I'm pretty sure that it's the problem. Glad it was a...

    Does anyone experience a drop in rpm when turning on the A/C?

    When your compressor kicks on it puts a load on the motor. It's normal.

    What new tools have you got lately?

    I wonder if they make a waterproof connection for the power wire for tachometer and distributor on the distributor right side? I could use one. I like those connections. Might have to get some.

    Installed the new fog lights last weekend but this is the first time I've drove it at night to do a test run around the block. They're really Brite as I just had the parking lights on too. I was worried that they might fog up but we've had rain and no fogging yet. These are a good deal for the...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Hooked up the new fog lights. I really like the wiring harness and all it seems pretty good quality. Time will tell tho. Went to tsc to get some washers to beef it up a little. Drilled two holes in the bumper on each side.one for the mounting bolt and one for the wires. Bumper is thick and it...

    They make a puddy that will fix that. I put a hole on mine then smashed some of that puddy on it and it's still holding up. Walmart or auto parts should have it. Waterproof too.

    The 6x9 cab corner boxes came in today. Unfortunately they didn't fit with the sub box behind the seat. They fit great otherwise and guess I'll use them in the 82 when I put a radio in it. If you're looking for some boxes like these ud recommend them because they're nice and well made and pretty...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Here's 95 bucks worth of gaskets lol Also washed the 82 and took it to heb for a beer run. Caught the Texas flag in the tailgate and when I got to the store it was bent over the tailgate. Wasn't even going that fast. I've run 65 with it flapping and it held up fine. Bent it back in the bed...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Spent 95 bucks on gaskets today to fix all the oil leaks he found while replacing the motor mounts. That should fix all of them except for the rear main seal.
