    What new tools have you got lately?

    I think mine should be in the poverty section. Flywheel turner.

    Long tube headers/dual exhaust question

    I'm putting a BLUEPRINT 540 horse 427 small block in my rig and going with 3" pipe all the way, WITH an H pipe. She needs to breathe easy.

    Long tube headers/dual exhaust question

    "H" pipe will give a lower growl, but like everybody else says........unless you got some serious ponys...........forget about it. You won't notice any performance difference on a stock engine. Only sound change. "X" pipes sound too 'tinny" for me. Just my opinion. Also another good chance...

    Installing a New Exhaust System Including Headers

    Me either, and I've had every make out there. Definitely not the right header to be that close to the drive shaft. If it were just the pipe, you could 'squeeze' it a bit but a new set of headers is the way to go. Stainless 304. Trust me........they're worth it in the long run. If you're...

    Exhaust single to dual on a tight budget - Then we get into some after issues

    Spent 30 years in Houston "HotWheelsBurban". I really miss Texas. Not Houston. The daily commute was just getting worse and worse. Especially on 290, 610 and the Beltway. Headin' down to Texas in about 2 weeks. I can hardly wait. :) Sunshine, guns, Marlboro's. Yeah..........everything a...

    Exhaust single to dual on a tight budget - Then we get into some after issues

    I picked up one of those kits, put an "H" pipe in it. I think I ran "Hush Thrush" mufflers that were pretty cheap. Sounded just 'ok'. A little on the loud side. Walkers a better choice, but I get it...............regarding keeping the cost down. The "H" pipe really helped with noise. It...

    Another exhaust options thread - what should I do?

    yeah, what he said. :)

    Another exhaust options thread - what should I do?

    For the money............I bought an entire kit (dual exhaust) right to tail pipes and it wasn't that much money. SUMMIT. all bolt on. no welding.

    Oil pan off, anything I should do while I’m under there?

    I always tack weld the pickup so it can't come loose.

    TH350 Cooler Lines

    Thats what I did with mine and installed a REAL tranny cooler. Really helped lower tranny temperature. I don't think think the radiator cooled the fluid enough.

    Which ground do I start with?

    Had the same problem. Cargo light all jacked up. Just took the bulb out. No more problems. LOL

    Have you checked your ground?

    A faulty ground was my problem on my dual tank setup.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Go stainless 304 steel on headers next time. It works.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    That was MY AC in another old '75 I had. 4-90 AC. All four windows open with fan on, slider open and 90 mph. Worked great. Till I met the state trooper. !

    Throttle cable way too long

    2500 miles south. with cat. with dog, and with co-pilot wife. We'll be taking our time on this trip. Pick up some more 'go fast' parts, have a vacation and in spring go full on restoration on the 1975. Like to get her completely done before next winter. I think I can do it. Work every day...

    Throttle cable way too long

    OFF SHE GOES TO THE DUMP. NOTHING SALVAGEABLE EXCEPT GAS CAPS. WOOD FLOOR WAS SHOT. TERRIBLE RUST. I HAVE ALL NEW METAL FOR A NEW BED, AND ALL NEW WOOD FOR A NEW WOOD BED. I SHOULD OWN SHARES IN LMC BY NOW. lol

    Throttle cable way too long

    This is where we're at right now. Time to get out the impact and tear the rest of the rusted crap off. Then all new cab supports, and cab work. Floors, rockers inner and outer and then its time to head back to Texas for a while and get some sun.

    Throttle cable way too long

    Got one more problem solved. Exhaust. Still wrenching on mine. I thought I'd share with you my custom exhaust system on my K20 that I've FINALLY decided on. "I've been ciphering" LOL I'm running full 304 stainless steel full length headers 3" all the way from collectors...
