    Failed Aircare, need some suggestions to troubleshoot

    What is the condition of your catalytic converter, and is it a 2-way or 3-way? It almost sounds like you have a 2-way, as these are only meant to reduce unburned hydrocarbons and CO.

    My restoration project - Rusty 89

    I solved one of the major issues with my filter relocation...it previously had a #10 ORB to a -10 AN fitting, which required me to use a -10 to -8 adapter, and then a -8 elbow as I thought I couldn't get a #10 ORB to a -8...well, it turns out they're readily available, and as a result, I gained...

    my flywheel keeps comeing loose

    if the bolt is properly preloaded (and the thread form is intact), it will not back out. If ARP recommends moly lube with a specific torque value, listen to them, they've done their research. loctite does not have the same lubricating characteristics as moly lube, so the torque required to...

    My restoration project - Rusty 89

    The cooler has to go behind the intercooler on the passenger side, with the ports facing toward the passenger side of the car. (I probably have the exact same B&M cooler as you) I have to punch a hole through the headlight mount to run the line to the thermostat, which will be mounted on the...

    my flywheel keeps comeing loose

    this is not true at all. Manufacturer torque specs are based upon new fasteners, inserted into clean female threads. New fasteners had a consistent, predictable surface finish. As torque specifications are based solely on the predicted resistace within the threaded region and under the head...

    OEM Sub

    no pictures, but they are just the typical stock 6.5" woofers that come in most cars. The magnet is about 3" in diameter. As for amp, I've got a little clarion amp sitting around that I'm going to try using. I'll upgrade to something of a little higher quality if that doesn't do it for me...

    My restoration project - Rusty 89

    Just an update, not a lot of progress has happened recently, as I got married a couple weeks ago, which more or less prevented me from working on the car. With that said, the only thing that is really preventing me from finishing the interior is making a set of mounting rings for the rear...

    OEM Sub

    Here are some pictures of the inside of the box. Despite the fact that the chambers in the box are not divided, the airspace is suitable for the two subs (as per JL's recommendation) The box came with the foam sheet inside; however, I decided to coat the back of the box in a layer of...

    Oil Pressure sender thread Pitch?

    most senders are roughly the same size as the current hole. You can't just re-tap, as you will be cross-cutting the threads that are currently in there (no chance in hell of sealing these threads). What you would need to do is get a thread adapter that has a minor thread diameter bigger than...
