    Rebuilt carb-no start

    Need more input... Take the plugs out, crank for 20 seconds.... Reinstall plugs.... You should not have a hydrolock unless you are pushing off of bad timing (loaded mis fire).... i MEAN BEYOND OFFSET TIMING! This is a huge problem. Dont dig in too deep, this is standard settup! Check your...

    engine swap

    blubuckaroo has a nasty true thought: TBI? It has a rough time on 351's even flashed..... If a NP435 fits, then a NP465 fits!

    engine swap

    302 VS 351w They are both the same, but way different. Obviously the mounts need changed. The radiator will probably need an upgrade depending on where you are loacated. I am not sure how complete the motor is you are buying, but there are adapters for the 302 accessories to the 351. To...

    I am on my 5th EB, and I will not lube my door mech's..... I have found that lubing them seems to make them worse..... Its not a huge problem, but if I dont need to take the panel off, I wont! NO LUBE IS MY VOTE!

    1973 door stuck on striker

    Its nothing but a common problem. Once you get it fixed it will work forever, unless you lock the door. Then taking off the inner panel becomes a chore with the seat in the way. I have tried everything myself, other than replacing the parts. Mine is an offroad rig, so i never lock it, but...

    TBI Fuel Delivery Questions:

    Just did the conversion! Ran into a load of issues. I first mounted the elec fuel pump on the fender! Ok, ok, so I mounted it by the tank. It is a 14.5 psi pump! No matter how I adjust it, the Horse starves above say 1600 rpms! So I cut off the return all together, and found it runs...

    Tricks to putting on a hardtop -getting it to seal up good

    I actually just stored mine after armoral'ing them. Keep them at room temp. I usually kept them laid out under the couch, but a vacuum will try to suck them up. My top is for the winter, and I am going on 4 year old seals. If the door seals would just hold up!%)
