Boy, that really depends on the system you use. Most modern paints require you to put down the entire package in one go- the coats 'melt' into each other for strength. And the upper coats expect quit
So to clarifya Delrin body with a steel ball in it? Or a steel ball and pivot cup with Delrin around the cup? My only concern would be that the fastening (the bolt holes and the ears) would be stiff
I agree- the Delrin as a bearing surface will last longer than steel- onsteel... Nothing wrong with Delrin as a bearing at all- I was just not clear on the housing material!
it's actually for slightly ABOVE freezing temperatures, in humid climates, like around here. At 35 to 40f, air can have a lot of water in it. Pull it though a pressure drop (like a throttle body, wi
The recent (within 5 years) Bosch wires aren't reliable, anywaythe plug ends pull off, they break, and sometimes, they just don't conduct. I used to use 'em on the 2002- now, I buy an Accel set for $
What year? 2 alternate possibilities: Whitworth (unlikely) or metric, post '67(.5?) I know I should be shot for this, but there are times that a tap and die make a difficult problem... easy... Toby
the rules change depending on when your car was built! The early cars (pre 67.5) are supposed to be SAE- but the pipe fittings might be British. The engine went metric sometime in 1967, and the body
If it's running rich, check your float levels and needle valves before you get too far into it. The valves, especially, can cause all sorts of problems if they stick or seep... hth, Toby
Here's a different ideahow about a removable wheel? It's a $50 adapter that moves the wheel about an inch closer to you. We use 'em on the race cars, and it really makes snaking around the wheel and
Oooh, that's a trick question, isn't it? The tie rod ends are adjustable, so they don't really torque! (no, sorry, I don't know the torque for the nuts, but 'nice and snug' hasn't failed me yet!) heh
Heh, that's funnyI get a pat on the head and a 'that's nice, dear' when I drag another car home, but there's no question that I'll be sleeping in it if I even THINK about another woman... heh heh...
Hi Stan, Here in Washington, it's not that hard to explain. When you sell a car, you sign the bottom of the title releasing your interest in the car. Basically, until signed, the title is non- transf
Sure. In fact, it's better to change panels with the car together and sitting on its wheelsor at least supported at the suspension points. The body is pretty flexy, so when it's being modified, you r
