Thanks for all the advise! I think I got it. I pulled the booster and master, went over all the moving parts for the pedal and now it's coming back up like it should. Must have been binding somewhere.
It is an original disk front and drum back car. The car had been sitting for many years and the brakes didn't work so I did lines, calipers, pads, master and rear cylinders. The master has a large and small reservoir so it should be good.
Maybe I need to hit it with "Illudium PU-36. (only you...
Yes I did try shortening it, I had it back about 1/4 inch but they still lock. I'm going to pull the booster I guess, I never had to mess with those before.
I'm working on the 73 Cuda and the Brake pedal stays partially down and won't fully return. The brakes work great and the pedal is solid but I have to pull the pedal up the last inch or so for the brakes to release otherwise the wheels stay locked. I've tried 2 master cylinders and tried...

I was able to fish a wire down the oil gallery from the head into the cam but couldn't get past the cam. No blockage and still no flow. I can blow air through it into the block but that is probably just slipping past the bearings. I did change the timing chain right before this issue but I...
Thanks the images help a lot. I'll have to check the gauge port to be sure bout I don't think there is pressure there. Yes I had the engine running fine last fall and it was fine when I shut it down, it has a new oil filter. I'll try rotating it tonight while I have the pump going and post back.
I pulled a great running 67 383 last fall. I just put in my Cuda this week and it sounds horrible. No oil is getting to the top of the engine. I removed the valve cover and it's dry so I went further thinking maybe sitting on an angle all winter the pick up got plugged. I removed the oil...
Thanks, I was wondering where the clutch rod would have gone if someone would have done a conversion at some point. Definitely not where these holes are.
