I have a 350 ci engine with a 650 Holley Street Avenger. I used a vacuum gauge in the line going from the manifold to the HEI distributor. The highest vacuum level I got was 16 inches. The car ran great but it smelled like it was running rich. I then tried in a dead end hose from the manifold...
I have a Buick steering wheel, that the foam was messed up. I tore off the foam and try to make a wood wheel with some cherry wood. Has anyone else tried this before?
I'm having problems with my emergency brake release handle on my 78 El Camino. When I pull it, the whole thing comes out through the dash. Is there supposed to be a clip that holds the doughnut in its bracket?
I have two 78 Buick Regal steering tilt columns. One has something going on with the actuator and the other the tilt is loose. How do you get the turn signal lever out? The lever is the light dimmer switch and cruise control. I removed the bar that connects to the signal switch. Stil can't see a...

I just figured out that I was cheated on my transmission. I ordered a 200r4 and found out this week that it is actually a th200. Since I have about 4000 miles on it can anything help it be more durable?
I ask this question due to I replaced the original with a Dorman from Jegs. It's supposed to be an original replacement. The 350 ci is from a 73 El Camino. This engine is still leaking from the pan gasket after changing it twice. I'd like to hear your thoughts.
My 73 El Camino engine is leaking from the timing cover. I pulled the harmonic balancer and found 2 grooves in it. I bought a new balancer . This engine has 40,000 miles since it was rebuilt. Due to the grooves on the old balancer should go further replace seal in timing cover?
I am having problems with the 2 piece rear main seal leaking on this 73 350. I've replaced it twice this past week. The first time I took a little of the seal off installing the top half. The second one I tried something different. I put the top half in leaving about 1/4" sticking out. I set the...
I have a question about timing. The Cam my son put in this engine back in 1995 is a 12-212-2 Comp Cam. It design is for racing. This engine has about 30,000 + miles on it . I know that GM wanted the initial timing at 10* , this engine wants it about 17* initial timing. When I time it I pull and...
I purchased Black Knight Decals about 9 years ago. I'm told that they may not stick. Anyone ever tried something like this before? When I remove the backing it feels sticky, is that an indicator of stick ability? Thanks in advance.
