    Window?

    I would suspect you have warn windows pushings. 50resto sells replacements. You'll need 2 per side for a HB/notch or 1 per side for a vert. They encumpass the guide rail that the window travels up and down on. I've done an initial writeup on how to replace them. I should have something more...

    Kenne Bell? I'm sort of surprised that no one has mentioned Kenne Bell by name...

    full aftermarket Fox body instrument clusters ?

    I've got a question I can't seem to find an answer to anywhere. What do the Autometer guages look like in the dark? I perticularly interested in the Phantom and Pro-Comp guages. And on anodizing that aluminium, plate: I've been working with a lot of aluminium parts lately and I'd probably...

    loose windows

    Alright, I have an update on this. Today a friend and I replaced the window bushings (from 50resto.com) for the passenger door to try handling the rattle in that window. Man, was it a royal pain. The bushings themselves are quite small. About 1" square. They go around the guide rail for the...

    installed 24lb injectors, mass air, and put upper intake back, now engine whistles?

    Sounds to me like that's just air running through the TB, especially if it only happend when the throttle is at a certain position. A friend of mine has an '02 Viper that whistles quietly at certian RPMs. When I noticed it I asked said it sounded like his belt was slipping. He explained that...

    Parking brake light......

    Sounds like a very logical explination to me. I have the same problem, but thought the cause was different (though now I believe my problem is caused by what you just described). I've known for a while that the asshat that I had replaced my parking brake cable (would've done it myself, but I...

    Who has the highest spinning 302 (or stroked 302)?

    Of course one could. Without too much trouble, either. But where's the fun in that? =]

    Who has the highest spinning 302 (or stroked 302)?

    Heh. My stock '88 GT with the original motor does ~53 in first and almost 90 in second. Yes, that's the stock redline in both gears. I'll have the numbers for 3rd gear fairly soon as I just got a 12-channel GPS unit that'll track high-speed over a given stretch. =] However, from the research...

    loose windows

    Whatever we do, there will be lots of pictures and I'll let you know how it worked. I'm going to replace the bushings, too. I'll probably start with that and then go from there. If we see something obviously wrong (loose, bent, whatever), then we'll take pictures and fix that.

    loose windows

    I have this problem, too. Windows close nice and tight, but if I crack them even the slightest bit they rattle. In the coming weeks I'm going to be ordering some things from 50resto.com as well as, shocks, springs an bushings. Some friends and I have a bit of a machine shop going, so I very...
