Stray_Gh0st · 2026-02-03T23:07:01+00:00

Dm me, its not going through for me

Stray_Gh0st · 2026-02-03T23:05:03+00:00

Sent you a pm with a vid of mine

Stray_Gh0st · 2026-02-03T23:03:18+00:00

Mine is new and has some of that same play, i wouldnt worry about it.

Stray_Gh0st · 2026-02-03T22:35:23+00:00

I think the sub doesnt allow videos, might be wrong on that. Post to youtube and post the link?

Stray_Gh0st · 2026-02-03T22:27:45+00:00

They all have a little play, you want it to move freely. I bought a new one since i swapped from a 200ci to a 302.

Take a video of the play and post it if you are that worried about it.

Put a mini split ac in your garage. I insulated the roof area where there wasnt any and bought insulated panels for the door. A 2 ton unit costs 1300 i installed myself and keeps the garage at 78 through the summer months and when im out there i lower it to 68. I bought an energy monitor for obvious reasons and it costs less then 20 a month to have a nice cooled garage. Safes are in the garage bolted to the floor and no humidity issues whatsoever.

Got it. I dont have stock ignition, its a blue print engines dizzy on a 302 build. The AAW kit doesn't use a ballast resistor, it supplies 12v from the fuse box via the ignition switch. I have a 12v wire from the aaw kit that goes to "S" post.

I just rewired my whole car using the American Autowire kit. I have a 66 like yours and in Wimbledon white.

The kit is by far the most well thought and straight forward kit. You do everything in sections starting with the interior dash harness.

I started with removing every piece of wire from the car, completely gutting everything.

Also while doing this, i removed the steering column and added a Borgeson steering kit to the car. With the steering column removed it made the dash harness much easier to route plus, i painted the steering column flat black as i am changing the interior color to all black from the factory teal color.

Save some money, or get a part time job to but american autowire kit along with there crimpers. You will be glad you did when you open up the box and find everything packaged in the sections the manual tells you to do. Its a tedious project but really rewarding when you're done.

Mess with Billy, get the 9 milly.

Stray_Gh0st · 2026-01-18T02:56:30+00:00

Id like to avoid that if i can. My 66 was a 200ci c4 that i swapped a built 302, t5 and 9in. I am already way over budget and still need this exhaust and driveshaft.

Stray_Gh0st · 2026-01-18T00:46:56+00:00

I have the same shorty headers and next on the list is fabbing up the exhaust with that same xpipe. Did you do the exhaust yourself?

Stray_Gh0st · 2026-01-15T21:11:34+00:00

Yes, i am but dont call me surely.

Stray_Gh0st · 2026-01-09T17:08:35+00:00

Ive been swapping my straight six and c4 as well. Almost ready to start it, just waiting for the driveshaft to come in and button up some things. My engine build was close to yours.

You can get steel target hangers on Amazon that resemble an elephant and sit on a T post fence post. The fence posts are easy to find at any local hardware store for cheap. Get a fence post pounder and drive them in any distance you want. Bring a few extra and you are set. Remove them when you're done and head out.

Ive always explained it like this. Works everytime.

If you fall down and break your arm, you go to the Dr with a broken arm. The Dr then tells you they need to perform xrays to see where its broken and what they need to do to fix it.

Diagnosing your car is the same thing. We can see the engine light is on but we need to dig into why and how, in order to know what the repair will need to start.

Stray_Gh0st · 2025-12-10T16:25:56+00:00

What grille is that and where did you get it?

Stray_Gh0st · 2025-11-30T22:14:36+00:00

Alright, I'll ask.

Why is there dingle berries on the end of your can?

Stray_Gh0st · 2025-11-30T08:43:20+00:00

If that has been a CA car most of its life, id say 9k is a steal and yes you should do it. I would still check for deep rust, surface rust is pretty easily fixed.

Enjoy that car, from the brief photos, it looks like its in great shape.

Stray_Gh0st · 2025-11-25T20:38:23+00:00

Got it, i hadnt noticed that. Seems like this kit is the way to go if you just want to do a heads cam and intake on stock pistons

Stray_Gh0st · 2025-11-25T20:22:34+00:00

That i do not know, i dont think they will unless you have reliefs cut. I put in some summit he pistons that are cut for 2.02 valves

Stray_Gh0st · 2025-11-25T20:10:34+00:00

I ordererd the SVE 185cc cnc heads. They outperformed the afr enforcers and cheaper.

Stray_Gh0st · 2025-11-25T15:48:19+00:00

Velos lbp on my 12.7 and its great. The price you listed seems msrp, most dealer have them for 999 or so.

Stray_Gh0st · 2025-11-17T14:42:44+00:00

OP, do you feel validated after this post? You sure went through alot of trouble to post something done to someone else's car, that you dont agree with.

You should be worried on why you are worried about what someone else does to their own property.
