    Grant Signature Series wheels?

    I along with many of you, I'm sure, am victim to the lousy design that is Grant's classic horn button. I have the black rubber-foam wheel thing, which looks ok, but I haven't heard my horn since I rigged it up for inspection the last time they bothered to check. Has anyone tried the Grant...

    Bad motor mount?

    Just need a little input since I rarely get time to crawl under my hood anymore. If when I step on the throttle and I can feel the clutch pedal lift a bit, is this evidence of a bad motor mount? I've been fighting with a vibration forever that I can never seem to chase down, entire ignition...

    Suspension replacement, need opinions

    My front end is getting sloppy, all the control arms seem to be eating ball joints, the PO had mismatched UCAs (one is 3-bolt other is 4) I'm just going to replace all that crap, plus I've got the wife talked into letting me spend a lot of money. To set the stage - Car is 68 Coupe, 302 4...

    68 Drum Hub

    Is it just me or does nobody seem to make or stock this piece? When turning left my driver side tire is making this sound which would be best described as it sounds like its hitting a plastic flap of some sort, no noise straight. It might also be note-worthy to mention the front end of my car...

    Need name of part

    I'm having the most horrible time locating one of these online. What I'm needing is the splined coupler that goes between the steering box which the splines fit to, and the rag joint. I can't find it online anywhere for some reason. I recently bought a poly joint to replace the rag, as this is...

    Vibration - Wrong balancer?

    My car has a mild vibration ever since I swapped engines, it's not steady, but it happens pretty much once every 2 seconds. I've revved it up out of gear and it's still there, dismissing the tranny from the equation. Engine is an 87 Roller 50 oz, balancer is a fluid-type of some sort My engine...

    Tire hitting fender

    OK Shelby drop has been done, but I screwed up and asked my guy to take out half a coil. Long story short, he took out an entire coil, and my right tire is on the fender now when turning, but the left seems to not be at issue. (But damn I love the stance!) Good news- Someone took a baseball bat...

    Exhaust port bumps

    I just had my old 289 heads completely redone, but was thinking of grinding out those lumps in the exhaust ports. My questions are - 1- Can I do this with the valves in place so long as I clean them out really well? 2- And how much can I safely remove? Is there anything I might screw up...
