Great. I'll give that a go. Thanks again.

Thanks a lot Tom, that is most helpful. I have the 300HP housing. If I don't change the housing, would the hose for the 300 HP work (GM Part # 3887154)? Ron

Hi folks, I would like to replace my upper radiator hose. I have a 1966 327 cu in, 300HP motor. I have a stock aluminum manifold (which I think was for a 350HP motor). I have the stock DeWitts aluminum radiator. I see there are 2 hoses available for a 66. For the 300 HP it calls for a hose...

Thanks Thanks a lot :). Your advice was right on! I found out the white wire had broke off at the connector that goes to the steering column. Back on the road:Steer

Could someone please give me some advice on how to locate my brake light problem. - Both taillights work. - Both turn signals work. - The brake fuse is good. - The brake pedal switch appears to be good. I placed a jump wire across the orange and white wires that go to the brake light switch...

Thanks a lot :w

Perfect, and the emblem itself is 2 1/2" ?

Thanks. I don't have to worry about the old mounting holes. I'm lucky there: the 65 emblem was just secured with silicon (no holes). Is it true that the 66 emblem is only 2 1/2 " wide? I just want to make sure I have the correct emblem, before I permanently install it. What would be the...

Hi, I recently bought a new glove box emblem for my 66. It previously had a 65 emblem. I was surprised that the 66 emblem is only 2 1/2" wide (almost half the size of the 65 emblem). Is that correct? If it is correct, could you please let me know the measurements for the placement of the...

I used solder and it is working fine now. Thanks alot :w Interesting, I noticed that it 'flings" it back quite a bit farther than before. Must be because it is getting a better jolt on the contact now. I don't know about the rest of you, but there's something about a working clock that makes...

I'm not sure what it was :confused (a shim?) They had it for about a week. They did tell me what they made, but it was greek to me. Went in one ear and out the other. I was just happy to get it out and on the road again. :Steer

She's back on the road and shifting great. I am very pleased. Cost me a few bucks more (they had to make a part). But at least I saved the tow bill :D Ps: love that flogging of the dead horse :boogie

A few years ago John McGraw posted a real useful post on cleaning the contacts inside the clock. I cleaned them off and the clock worked great for years. Now those contacts are finally worn down. I wonder if I just put a dab of solder on each contact if that would work (I suspect not). Or...

I agree, but usually they are very good. I was very pleased with the new clutch. They still have it, so we'll see what happens when I get it back. My fingers are crossed.

Thanks a lot for your help. Here's what I did: I dismantled the shifter as described by Tom. I found a pin with a clip on it. I removed that pin and repositioned the shifter to get it out of reverse. The "T" handle, previously known as “the pull up thing” ;LOLdropped back into position. I then...
