thanks for the information!!!

What is the proper solvent to remove the adhesive that adheres the "wood grain" decal to the instrument cluster metal bezel of an E-Body? I peeled off the reproduction wood grain decal that I installed about 20 years ago and I am really struggling with getting the adhesive removed from the...

Can someone please tell me how the factory AC evaporator drain connects to the engine side of the firewall rubber drain? Is there a plastic tube that shoves into the rubber drain tube? I ask because I am installing a Custom Auto Air retrofit in a non-factory AC car and I do not like their...

Does anyone know the length of the 1970 Barracuda upper cruise control speedometer length. Mine is 32 inches and that seems a bit short.

Here is a service manual picture that shows the two studs on the firewall for the top two holes of the reinforcement bracket however the cutout on the firewall does not look the same as my car so it must be a B Body Does other cars have the top two studs and if so do they attach a wire clip?

OK...STILL banging my head on this conversion so I am asking for a life line from the pros... The back story...the car is a 1970 Barracuda California ordered car built in Hamtramck September 1969 (if that matters). It was originally a manual 4 wheel drum car and in the past I converted it to a...

Still have not driven the car yet (doing a power brake retrofit, Classic Auto Air AC retrofit, and have already installed the subframe connectors) so every morning I start the engine to fine tune the cold start and now it starts right up. Here are a couple of things that I learned and tweaked...

MoparCityGuy, Nice work on the graphic!!! Im glad you are on our team...and not a ChebbyCityGuy

Dr Eamer Nice installation of the coil >Tanks, Inc. (Holley's source vendor) followed what Holley spec'd for the baffle versus there own specs? Hmm. It is interesting that the fuel tanks are identical except for the number of holes in the baffle. How old is your fuel tank? I bought mine from...

even with the fancy clear top you still need to tell tne system to run a static 15 degrees constant timing and run the engine at idle and rev it up to watch the strobe light to ensure that the timing mark stays steady at exactly 15 degrees. Your setup sounds cool... pictures please

>Does the Sniper allow you to use a laptop to tune the system with Holley's free software? Yes the instructions say that it is possible to use a laptop to tune the system however I hope I will not have to go that route. If I recall Holly has a sniper that looks like a Holley 850 double Pumper...

>The reason that the clear cap does not exactly line up with the #1 spark plug tower on the cap is the distributor is locked down at a point which yields timing of 15° before top dead center. This is built into the system and the ECU uses a reference angle based on this lockdown point...

I mounted it to one of the heater core mounting bracket studs. I did not want to drill any holes in the firewall. Yes it's big and modern-looking and looks a bit odd in the otherwise OEM engine compartment but I have to accept differences when doing modifications sometimes

Hyperspark Distributor: Distributor timing: the distributor provides two functions. The first obvious function is to distribute the high energy electricity out to each of the spark plug wires. The second function of the distributor is simply provide a crank position trigger for RPM. Since the...

Sniper 10 Pin Optional Wire Connector: The Holley sniper EFI has a 10 pin optional wire connector. Most stock style setups will only need up to three of the 10 wires specifically a brown wire that is the output to a tachometer, the white wire that is the crank position indicator signal, and a...
