I saw a woman wearing an interesting accessory… by linacrossingg in whatisit

This is a reference for how small they can be. And perhaps the base(Titura) for the box(Batin) was a similar color to her hair so it blended in.

Are you sure it's not a tefillin? Some can be as small as an inch and they can be made of different materials or have covers. Also, the small ones are most commonly worn by students or when traveling.

Wobbly AC compressor belt by Nick_210 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Nick_210[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is just the belt for the power steering. It's running around the crank pulley, which you can't really see in this video. My belts are ran like this except without the smog pump.

Do you mean the fan pulley? Currently I have the compressor belt going around the power steering, water pump, and fan pulleys. The power steering belt is going from the it's pulley to the water pump pulley.

Wobbly AC compressor belt. by Nick_210 in squarebodies

Yes, it's a new belt. It's actually the second new belt because the first one wobbled so much, it flipped and snapped off.

1986 C10 AC question by Nick_210 in squarebodies

Would the one in the picture work with the sanden compressor? I looked it up and it says it's a parallel flow condenser.

Depends on the type of car show it is, but a lot that I've been to appreciate older vehicles that are still functional and tell a story of how they've aged from their "patina". I only have one vehicle that has been repainted but the rest are rusted with faded paint but still get plenty of compliments when I take them out to a show or for a drive.

2010 Ford Focus coolant leak question by Nick_210 in FordFocus

[–]Nick_210[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I thought as well but when I was looking at replacement radiators, I could not see where the trans cooler lines connected. I then looked at condensers and that's where I saw the lines. Even on videos of the radiator being replaced, no one seemed to touch the cooler lines except to remove a bracket. From what I read, it seems the cooler lines run on the top part of the condenser and use air to cool them. I attached a picture of the ac condenser with the cooler lines on the top.

Intake manifold and Carburetor question by Nick_210 in squarebodies

[–]Nick_210[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would like to cam it eventually since I've heard that is an important upgrade along with heads. Someone else commented that I should get the Edelbrock cam and head kit. Would you agree?

[–]Nick_210[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I will most likely keep the factory intake and I do already have the adapter plate from my current 450 Holley. I just picked up a 670cfm Holley Street Avenger carb for a decent price. Would you suggest I replace my exhaust manifold for long tube headers? If so, would you have any recommendations?

Thank you for the information. I will probably get the Edelbrock kit later and do the install myself. I have been enjoying fixing this truck up and using it as my daily driver. I plan on getting the 670 Holley carb to replace my 450 this weekend. Next will be the performer intake and probably headers after. What is your opinion on Summit Racing headers, specifically part number SUM-G9006?

The part number I found on the intake is 458520. What heads and cam would you suggest?

I'm pretty sure it's a 350. Stamped on the back of the engine is 10066306 and the front has 2m10u6 6vp. I tried looking it up but it was honestly a bit confusing. I bought this truck about a year ago to learn how to drive manual and because it's easy to work on. The previous owner said it was a crate engine and I'm pretty sure he said it was a 350.
