If you change the Muncie to a 2.5:1 first gear, you're car will be 10% below mine. Easily done. I had my 2 spare Muncies rebuilt that way.

my 66 Sting Ray has a 3.08:1 diff and a 2.5:1 first gear muncie which should be the same final ratio as a 2.2:1 Muncie and a 3.36:1 diff. I have been happy with this combination for over 20 years, and I suspect that you would be too if your car had a little more torque in the lower rpm range...

Have fun. Mine is a 53-72 Corvette parts manual, and it has the performance parts addendum sheets inseted.

Almost makes me wish I still lived in Buffalo NY. I used to attend the F1 Grand Prix races in October, with the countryside in incredible colors.

To determine if it is the motor or the headlamp (rotating) assembly, pull the lock clip and back the motor out of the assembly to see if the swivels have rusted or are full of highway bugs/debris. If the assembly rotates freely, unplug the motor and unscrew the ground wire and bracket and...

IMO when it comes to radical Corvette customs, it takes a back seat (hahaha) to Love Is Blue in both looks and performance. I have followed this car across the country on the Hot Rod Magazine Power tour, and it's quite a performer for a dependable street machine...

Did you remove/replace the distributor drive gear while the cam was being changed? You may have it backward on the shaft........

I'm still driving my 66 everywhere. If it disappears from a parking lot some night, I will accept that - knowing I've had 21 years of fantastic fun in it. The bustthem.com guys quit modifying cell phones years ago, and I see that the link posted above is being hijacked by a group of...

what? it only takes a minute to hot wire a 59.:beer

I used a Dremel grinding tool to remove a couple of thousandths from the "biting" edges. Now I can push them on - if I push really hard.

Corvettes of the 2009 Power Tour My list has Corvettes in order of appearance and then a few others. I posted the pics here: MAGICV8 Corvette Site PS: Anyone who doesn't believe that a c2 can do 85mph in a downpour and not take on rain water can ask DZVETTE (Dave Zuberer), my passenger in...

I believe the "correct" solution is to raise the fenders by prying them from the inner fender panels and then rebonding them. This "incorrect" fix has worked for me in the past: To lower the hinges and remove the hood rattle of worn out hinge spring washers: 1 Obtain a small round file...

See you in the Chicago pothole expressway........................:blue:

Are you sure the steering box is centered (lock to lock) when the valve is centering the front wheels to be straight ahead? I have heard of some problems with a steering box that is not centered.

IMO the first thing to do is pull the clip that holds the slow motor and make sure the lamp assembly flops back and forth with no resistance. If it does, the motor needs work. If not, try spraying silicone lube onto the pivot shaft (use the long thin tube on the nozzle) to see if you can lube...

I'll see if the silver c4 with white analog gauges is Long Hauling again this year - it's my favorite. Actually the digital dash is the only thing I could never warm up to during the 80s. I guess I'm an analog kind of guy.

:upthumbs well - that won't be hard to spot in the parking area........

You can always do those two stops, the GM tech center (can't miss that) and take the ferry back to milwaukee.:upthumbs
