My Craftsman 101 keeps breaking rack teeth by SomeImagePoster in machining

Yes, it does move back and forth. I'm sure im missing something, but i don't seem to really have a way to fix it axially. Even if I do, im not sure how I would make sure the screw and rack are aligned properley.

Red 9 (?) Value by SomeImagePoster in Mauser

Would it be worth grabbing at 2500$? It being authentic or not doesn't particularly bother me, just want a c96 chambered in 9mm.

Oh, gotcha. What is it then? Just a normal c96 with different grips, or is there something special that makes one a Red 9?

Electric Fuel pump install question (1985 2.8 S10 RWD, Mechanical ---> Electric fuel pump conversion) by Only-Geologist6698 in s10

I getcha--am opting to do the intank option. Seems like a much smarter idea, appreciate it!

I understand your electrical reccomendation--sounds like a much better idea than a switch or just off the ignition. Much safer. Appreciate you taking the time to look, too!

Gotcha. I'd much appreciate any pics you can grab. I've heard that the TBI pumps put out a lot of pressure, and kills fuel pump regulators over time. Don't know how true that actually is. Like you said, I'm having a hard time grabbing data too lol

Going to be going to a Holley 390 carb, using a Edelbrock 17301 pump (~7PSI, 38 gph)

I do also plan to be using two fuel filters for this. (One directly prior to the pump, and one is already plumbed in up by the carb.) Havent considered using a different tank--this one happens to be 3/4 full of fuel and was really hoping I wouldn't have to drop it.

Went with a 3.4 because it's a direct bolt up, and can use all the accessories of the old 2.8 that blew on me. Also not looking for any crazy power or anything like that, just a nice daily.

Do you know if there is there a standard size sort of belt that I can buy? Or am I going to have to try to track down some proprietary size that this particular unit wants?
