1964 Chrysler 300k brake upgrade

I’m looking to upgrade my booster and single master cylinder while I’m changing out my steering gear. This claims to fit my 4 wheel Drum set-up.

Does anyone have any advice on the matter? Is this just a straight bolt on with nothing else needed? As al…

RB block water pump housing

yep, need a water pump housing. Any help would be great.

Broken bolt in thermostat housing….

Ok I friggin snapped the bolt that holds my water neck to my water pump housing. I’m apparently not a very good machinist, I tried using a bolt extractor kit for harbor freight and probably made it worse.

Any advice on getting it removed without buying a whole new water pump housing? My plan would be to drill out the hole larger and run a new bolt and nut to mount.

1964 Chrysler 300k with 413 AC is the car.

Freeze plug removal issue

hey guys on my 64 300k with 413 front driverside freeze plug started to leak so I got a new plug. I attempted to remove the leaky one and it just crumbled and my screw driver went right through it!(I couldn’t get a socket or pipe to punch it out due to the motor mount in the way).

Any suggestions on a quick fix, extremely hard to find this bracket for a 1964 Chrysler 300k 413 WITH AC.

1964 Chrysler 300k IFS kits

Front drum adjustment

ok just replaced my front drum wheel cylinders and converted to a dual bowl MC on my 64 300k.
My stopping distance SUCKS, really have to press hard to barely stop. Here’s a video I’m guess I don’t have the pads adjusted close enough to the drums.
Any help would be great!
