Re: Patina love
That's the "universal" later model pattern. One shape will fit all car lines, so there will be more compatibility.

Re: Patina love
Got a pile of powdercoated parts to start assembling back from along with all the rest of my front suspension goodies. Gonna completely replumb the front line and considering that nicopp brake line vs steel. The new master has 2 front ports vs 1 port down to a “T”. So i i should probably do them individually. Any pointers? Oh an damn that master/proportioning valve is slick but close to column linkage. Has about 3/8” clearance but pics arent the best

Re: Patina love
Driveline in and got to go rip around the neighborhood. Transmission i had built 35years ago, and has sat in the back of an old pickup bed without oil in it and the converter its whole existence. I put a new filter, pan and modulator on it a couple weeks ago. Today it worked like it was built yesterday. Converter a tad tight and hope it loosens up some. It will bark the 1 tire with moderate throttle going into 2nd. It flat out gets it done. So happy.
Now the bad, i think this brand new napa fuel pump has a bad diaphragm or bad crimp. It wont keep filter full at low rpm and dies on me now. Wtf? Haha. The clear filter will bubble air after truck has been turned off and everytime i open the hood its less than half full |
