I have considered drop spindles too. What have you BB guys been running for stock height springs

OK, I now need some advice on front springs. 83' Elco... glass hood and glass front bumper. Im looking for new front springs with about 2" of drop. Still needs to be streetable

Well needless to say, the housing arrived. The problem I have is bearing flange to bearing flange is only 51", not the 53" it was claimed to be. Now for the questions..... I am trying to decide if I should run a disc rear kit or just run drums. Am I to assume that the disc kit does not add any...

Tommy, the one I bought is also running the "Torino" bearings. The next piece on my list is a new center section. Is the nodular fine or should I run with aluminum? Sorry for the dumb questions but this is my first 9"....

Ok, after not finding a 9 inch in any local yards that I was interested in I started to do some digging around to see what I could find. I have a new 9" housing on its way that is 53" bearing flange to bearing flange, new style big Ford housing ends 3.15 OD bearings, and 3/8's axle retainer...

Any links as to where I can look?

I am definitely interested and will get back to you. Let me go dig up a rear axle

So after finding that the 12 bolt truck axle was not the way to go... Im heading to the yard to find a 9". Now before anyone says it... yes I know it is probably easier and cheaper in the long run to get a pre fabbed rear but Im stubborn and like doing the work myself. Now, I know there are...

Good lord that just looks mean

So... with that option out the window, I am going to hit up my local pick-a-part. What rear axle would be ideal? What vehicles... strictly cars or are the trucks an option also?

yeah unfortunately this is from a truck. I was familiar with the top ears but wasn't sure what the options were

First off is it worth it? I have a 83' El Camino that is getting a BBC swap. I towed the truck home and then started to think...... would this rear axle be worth it. The rear axle is a 70's 12 bolt. I know that the truck 12 bolt has a smaller pinion then the car, and that all mounts would need...

I am going to finally build a motor for my 83' Elco. Now I know its not everyones first choice but I have had this block since my father has passed so I am really not looking to build anything else. 65' small journal 327... block is currently bored to .040 over so she will be bumped to .060. I...

The small black module in the 3rd pic... what is this for? Can it be removed?

Next... I found a local yard with a Malibu wagon that has a non A/C box so I am going to pull it along with the duct work and do the swap. I have pulled my dash so I can dye the interior, with that out, what wiring can be pulled from behind the dash? If I remove the computer what do I need to do...

Long story short.... I bought a 83' Elco about 3 months ago and have been daily driving it since. Previous owner threw a Edelbrock 1406 on the stock manifold and it has never ran just quite right. I decided today that I was going to swap out the intake and see if I could get her running better...

Does anyone know where I could find GM Briar Brown dye for my interior?

Ok, I am looking for some info on this. I am looking into the entry level supercharger systems but I would like to know the pros and cons. This is what I'm looking at - ProCharger P-1SC - self lubricating, 6061 billet brackets, 8 rib belt, capable of supporting 925 hp, 4.10:1 overdrive ratio...
