Just got the water pump back from rebuild from those guys in NY. Excellent work. The problem now it after putting it all back togather the water pump pulley seems to be just barely hitting the crank pulley and a small squeak sqeak, will ensue. I powder coated the pulleys when they were off...
I took the master cylinder off my 65 to rebuild it and noticed the casting number is not the same as the NCRS book says it should be. My book says it should be a cast number of 2225032 however its a 618967 cast number. Anyone have a book to find out what the 618967 cast is off of?
Which way do the caliper piston seals face? Groove in the seal away from the pad or groove toward the pad?
If the groove faces away from the seal, how do I get them in without damaging the seal?

What is causing this and how do I fix it?
Anyone know what a good sealant to use is on the top of the heater blower box on the firewall so it doesnt leak? I can see a small visible gap under the plenum (despite brand new gaskets) and it will definitely leak if not fixed. I'm sure the original stuff is no longer available. The NCRS...

I am more of a mechanical and electrical guy, when it comes to paint I am lost. The original owner decided to put a rubber molding on the side of the car in 1976 to "protect" the car. He sanded the paint so it would stick real good. I have removed the molding without loosing any paint, but...
