  1. 3 questions. how do your plugs look after that pull? what is the ideal afr? and what kind of rpm sensor are you using?
  2. external star washers should solve any slippage if there is any http://www.almabolt.com/pages/catalog/washers/star.htm
  3. after trying 2.5 and 3mm (that didnt fit) i found that the right size is a #4-40. i say this assuming that the holes in my seats havent been drilled and tapped
  4. i would like to see if the bolt moves in that slot over time and stress
  5. BUY IT NOW!!! in 15 minutes she will change her mind. its a woman thing

  7. i talked to oliver yesterday. he is rater busy moving parts out of his storage units, and upgrading his website. give him a call and leave a message if he doesnt answer. he will call back
  8. a couple more things off my list. i bet i spent the better part of 6 hours sandblasting the grill, lots of little nooks and crannies. i believe this is the only body part on the whole car i didnt have to repair! just sandblast and paint finally got the seat foam and covers done. the foam came from msa, and the covers from interior innovations. i spent maybe 3 hours on the seats. Hardways thread here was a big help. instead of plastic, i used baby powder on the foam. the covers went on easily. i also took the seat hinges apart and powder-coated them and the screws. just waiting on carpet, wheels and door panels now
  9. i may be wrong, but i believe there is such a thing as surface hardening.
  10. arent the lash pads hardened? seems filing them down would ruin them
  11. go to your local parts store and find the lowest wattage bulb they have that fits the socket. then, install only one
  12. the person i talked to said he had bought a few sets when BD closed up shop. i think ill try trimming them to match
  13. you are now past the point of no return. its hopeless. you are addicted. but, there is help here.
  14. '72 240 anyone know what size the screws that hold the seat mechanism cover in place are? i bought 3mm, but the thread pitch is off thanks all sb
  15. fenders on, lined up, and cut, buffed and polished marker lights installed and wired new "fuzzies" from vintage rubber. question: should the rubber overlap the window frame as shown in the second picture? finally got the new seat foam yesterday. hopefully have the seats done next week end
  16. love that vinyl roof https://corvallis.craigslist.org/cto/6128213660.html
  17. on the louver topic, my crack dealer has a set of louvers for the rear side windows. they are plastic, and held on with small studs and double-sided tape. anyone seen these before?
  18. i think pimped out is an understatement
