    Need Help W/ 4 Speed Ideas

    It was my understanding that the stock crossmember could be used. And you eliminate the small bracket that is used for the th350. The 400 and the 200r4 are real close in the mount area.

    Spare tire lock disassembly/re-key

    engine: before and after

    Looks Great. But from a safety stand point I don't trust that inline fuel filter. I cringe, when I don't see a solid steel fuel line from pump to carb.

    Slotted Rotors - Directional?

    I have slotted on my 73 and cross drilled and slotted on the 77. The slots help expell the brake dust away from the center of the hub. Other than that I don't know what to tell you.

    Slotted Rotors - Directional?

    They are directional rotors. The arc should run in the direction of the wheel. If that helps you.

    jumped starter

    Disconnet the clutch rod under under the brake booster. Check for power when you depress the clutch. Should be two screws holding the safety switch. Loosen and rotate until you have power in and out of the switch. Sometimes you can just bend the rod to get the adjustment.

    jumped starter

    Ignition switch at the base of the column bad, or in need of adjustment? You know the run part of the switch is good cause you jumped at the starter. And the car ran, but the start function is not

    75 Tach Questions

    Pink is ignition 12v and brown is the signal from the distributor. Just a wild guess I'd say the tach board is bad. If you have a tach/dwell meter hook up the tach to the filter if it works chances are it the tach board.

    Removable rear window

    Sorry if I posted some wrong information. The parts manuals have known to be wrong. I got a number six screw it fits the anchor plate. I believe a J-nut was also used to anchor the plates. Trying to install the removable in my 73.

    Removable rear window

    I looked in my parts manuals it calls for a 10/24x 1/2. Going through this myself. However I just checked the repo mount plate and the 10/24 is to big going to try an 8/32. I am guessing the originals were 10/24
