That is way cool. Amazes me that they had it back then but really amazes me that it took them ten yrs beyond to make it stock production. That's a keeper.

Sorry for the spotty typing above...just noticed my wireless keyboard skipping

Got around to installing one new motor on my right rear quarter. Jury is out on going new. It works (sorta). After hrs of cleaning relubing , adjustment, shimming, vodoo dance etc...I got it to not stick full up or down (there is the sorta thing). If Icontinue to run it up and down it will not...

The secondary lock out I referred to is on the right side of the carb. The diaphram linkage has a "kicker" so the secondaries can't stick open as the throttle closes but if the lever is bent it can bind the primaries. If this were your case however the throttle would feel sticky below about 1/4...

More more quick sidebar, though I advocate repairing existing, since R134a is what is available, the Classic air system is more efficient with less gas (2 lbs). Yours will retro but the high side pressures are a little trickier to control and I don't think you will get the outlet temps as low as...

Classic surprises me. Great tech help.....geez. Hopefully someone who did what you are doing chimes in but I'll but in 2 more cents here. The same unit that fits mine should fit yours as the firewalls are the same. Their unit replaces the entire box so the only real difference should be the...

I forgot which way I went but i went to the other style booster only because that is what I was sent. I pulled the bracket. Yeah it sucks (and I do this for a living). I think either the ears or the studs are bent from previous installation and it is easier with the bracket on a bench as you...

Does it still have points? If not check them as well. Dwell variation gets worse until the shaft expands if the gap is too small. Recommend going electronic if you have not already done so. Valve adjustment is important but usually runs worse warm as the valves tighten up as everything expands...

Great pictures. Determine whether the linkage is the issue or the carb. If the linkge rod (when not attached) should spring load closing pressure beyond the hole in the carb where it attachs. If it does, the carb is the issue, If it doesn't the linkage is the issue. If it is in the carb, make...

The spring in the picture you show is the accelerator pump over travel spring so the pump can spray at a controlled rate and not bind the throttle. Nothing internal closes the throttle. An external linkage spring is the only thing used to close the primaries. What is the issue you are having?

Well I have the Polks in place. All I will admit to is that they work but not my very best of ideas. It took a little creativity with some foam and duct tape to get low end sound but it was a little disappointing. On the plus side the mid and high project nice and I can can hear them pretty...

I have a pair of the Polk 351's coming. If they aren't what I hope I will try the dual voice on the front. I will let you know how the experiment goes.

Guess I should add that I am unfamiliar with the dual voice coil as far as how it is wired for stereo. They look like 2 individual tweeters with an oval woofer which has a better bass potential than 2 individuals but I am not sure how that works. Any more input would be great. Sorry for my...

Pulled my rear speaker and had a look. It has 2 3.5 inch pieces of crap paper speakers in a 2 hole (correct would be 4 hole) receptacle so I'm not suprised with the lack of sound. I'm comparing speakers and seen good reviews on Polk audio db351's. Thought I might try them and make my own insert...

Using the forum to answer a message I received from Mike about "why use Pertronixs?" being as long winded and opinionated as I am I needed more space to answer. Those who use one please chime in. Here goes.... Best answer. Simplicity. It's cheap but well made. I have never seen one go bad though...

I ran into a similar problem. I had asked tech support at Classic to make sure their compressor setup would work with my pulley setup. Had the original crank pulley with 2 inner pulleys and they assured me it would work. Non A/C pulley setup on my 65 did not work. I had a pulley off a 1970...

One last note. IF you do it....... They stub the heater hoses for the core inside the passenger compartment. Mine got a pin hole right at the core so I thought the core went out. Filled my new carpet with antifreeze (which isn't the end of the world but sucks) sot I got smart when I got the...

Here is the skinny on aftermarket. A good point is that the box is smaller than the original which makes it easier to install. Second good point is the Sanden compressor which is smooth and draws way less horsepower than the old York/Tecumseh compressors they used back then. The downside is if...

When you say non functioning I assume you already have factory air that doesn't work. If so repair it. Mine was a non a/c conversion.

I used classic air because I didn't see anyone else who had a tbird specific conversion but them. It works ok BUT we need to talk before you stroke the check for it. There are "issues" and their tech support are idiots.
