    changed the clutch, now it wont engage!

    changed the clutch and it wont go into gear. starts fine in neutral but will not go into any gear. turn the car off, and you can go through the gears fine. whatcha think?

    1965 289 exhaust header vs HIPO manifold

    i switched from tri y's to the hi po's. i had BAD steering problems with the long tubes. my pitman arm HIT the primary and had to be dented in. Patriot brand sucks. switched to a hi po and made a big difference in power from the seat of the pants feel. BUT, i can turn freely now lol
