None here in KG Va either

Emission inspection is no more than a money grab, why? Because 90% of the cars on the road are NEW cars where nothing is wore out yet. South Carolina has no inspections and have no problems. For the most part they keep their cars up

No mm please

Is there a kit to seal to hood (open 6 pac type scoop)

Yes, I know all the variables with ‘k-frames’ and their uses. I do like the measurements given on spacing (I’ll copy that). I have two cars (actually 3 but not in discussion) (64 Savoy & 73 Barracuda) both have the b-engine mounts. With the 64 I have a set of conversion mounts (bought 20 years...

Those pads are for heat reduction only

is there a place to by the frames mounts for a 426 Hemi? Or if someone has patterns? I could make the patterns off my 66 frame thought it would be easier if made already.

I’m looking to change the reg k frame (66 b body) over for my Hemi, how much are you asking for the frame brackets? 64-65 had the engine more forward, 66 and up are the same set back.

I’ll add, when ‘slick shifting’ the trans, every other tooth is removed on gear and slider, brass rings are removed except in first gear, to allow faster engagement (more spacing)

They ALL have syncros except reverse. The input still turns because of friction even with clutch pushed in, which in turn (pun intended) turns the cluster which turns the gears at different speeds. So when moving the synchro into whatever gear, it pushes the brake (brass ring) to slow down or...

I’m still looking for the info on scoops

Since it was rebuilt I would check for a bad synchronizer. Easy to shift when engine not running plus it’s usually easy while moving down the road if bad. Those brass rings are little brakes to stop each gear to allow engagement.

Wish you were closer

Did your husband get a title with the car?

I use a stainless 1/8” welding rod, used to use a coat hanger but it bent so much
