    AC Blower

    There are 5 1/4 drive screws, a socket, 6" extention and rachet will get it, you can get a couple from on top and couple from the bottom, not all that hard.

    AC Blower

    you can put in a C4 blower and it will move some more air, it will require fabbing a 1" spacer since the C4 fan is 1" longer. However, there are other things to do first.

    Carb is Toast? Need to replace

    The stock QJ is far and away the better carb especially for a street machine. Get yours redone by a competent carb tech and get it tuned correctly and you will be money and time ahead. Replacing it with an off the shelf unit might work, then again it might not. Lots of the "Refurbished" units...

    Alternator help

    Alternator pulleys don't require a puller. All you have to do is remove the nut on the shaft and it will fall off. I use an impact gun on the nut and just hold the fan with a glove and hit it once, comes right off

    Alternator help

    Wow, thats a lot of miles. I agree fully with your comments. I decided to go with relays and bigger wires for exactly those reasons. It never made any sense to me why GM decided to run all the power from the alternator back to the battery, then back up to the starter and then distribute all the...
