Members Helping Members

Thought I would start a thread of all the great help I have received since joining this group with advice and parts procurement. I’ve purchased several items from members here over the last year and thanks to you my projects are closer to being completed. I will continue to post to this thread any shout outs to members who have provided advice or taken the time to dig up a part I needed. I encourage all members to post their good deal stories but please leave the negatives out. Thanks again…

Well we keep losing great artists. I’ve been to 4 concerts and always left well entertained…hopefully the Highway to Hell is closed and he is on the Highway to Heaven…

So it’s a slow day at work so thought I’d fix the selector shaft seal on the ’70 that keeps leaving swimming pools of ATF all over the place..started off easy enough…

dropped the pan down and was pleasantly surprised at no debris to speak of in the filter or the pan…

And everything looks ok so went to replace the seal with the specialty tool we all know and after messing around with that for 20 min just dropped the valve body…

OK collective having trouble setting up a “Members” 70 318 after rebuilding the Carter BBD 2 BBL. Wasn’t getting fuel to the carb from the new tank and sender so swapped out fuel pump. With a little priming car started up running but was rough and surging. RPMs fluctuating between 850-950, Vacuum gauge reading between 15-17 hg but not steady. Set idle – set mixture then went to set timing….initial was running over 25 with the advance disconnected. Backed off to 10 degrees but RPMs dropped…
