Very nice

Looks cool (different). Not gonna see those at any car shows

Should be fun. Looking forward to pics and the progress

I like it; of course I like them all though. Have fun

It’s frustrating that they make so many different style plugs

Try Kanter, they are in NJ I believe, and have a lot of hard to find drums

Kinda seems so lately. I jump on weekly but don’t post often

Looks cool. Fresh seats and carpet really change the look

I got a ‘68 D100. Got a power brake booster off a ‘69. Brake lines were rusted away so didn’t grab them. The new master cylinder for power brakes has the fittings switched; the 1/2” and 9/16” are switched around. And the 9/16 has a different thread count. I know I need to change out the 9/16” one be...

I’ve had my ‘68 apart for 2 years and got it together now but also have no power to the bus bar.

The timing seems to be all over the place that I’ve read online. No one has a clear answer to what it should be at. I set mine at 8* BTDC in my van (318) then if it pinged adjust till it doesn’t. Gets old doing it over and over till you find a sweet spot.

Is there a certain way it’s supposed to set? The metal side folded up to face the front or to the firewall? And are both sides to fit in the same position?

Looks really nice!

Truck looks real nice

The frontwards casting on the block is wider than earlier 318’s. Anyone else change engines and notice this? Since the ‘85 bracket is a little shorter I’ll just add a spacer under the bracket or motor mount. I’m guessing this should work. And on the ‘85 engine,the block casting on passenger side onl...

This is the ‘85 pickup bracket. It’s wider and fits correctly.

This is from passenger side. This is the ‘69 bracket and it fits to the front of the engine. Obviously not wide enough.
