Right on , thanks 👍

I have a 72’ with non working A/C. Id like to get some fresh air inside until I get aftermarket air. In the kick panel area, can I remove the vacuum actuated door on pass side and the block off plate on the driver side and add the non A/C kick panels and be good to go? Or what else needs to be done? Thanks

Very nice, Chevelle sounds great 👌

I bought a set of American Racing headers, which I’ll hopefully be installing soon. Since some of you guys have been running them for a few years now, do you have any advice on cleaning or maintaining them, or anything I should do prior to installation? I read an article about spraying the inside of stainless steel headers with VHT silver ceramic paint to prevent the outside from bluing, not sure how well that works. Thanks 👍

I appreciate you checking, thanks again

cbolt thank you. Did you replace every bulb, as in turn signal & bright indicators, etc with the same led? I see they do have other options for those, It looks like they’re slightly dimmer bulbs. For a 72’, I assumed the color they call natural would be the normal white ?

Superbrite led’s website claims there 194 replacements for the instrument cluster are dimmable, can anyone verify they will dim correctly ? I’m not fond of excessively bright dash lights, but I like the thought of lower current draw and less heat on the circuit board. Thanks 👍

Very cool 👍

Thank you, that definitely helps. Mines about 12 5/8” - 12 3/4”. I get exactly 2” to the back of both wheels from the inner fender by the frame, so I’m guessing my quarters are a little wider on the lip.

I’ve been looking for a couple measurements I haven’t been able to locate. — How wide is the wheel well lip on a factory quarter panel? Are aftermarket quarters typically wider there ? — What is the dimension from inside that wheel well lip to the inner fender near the frame? Thanks 👍

My intention was to do the floor shift conversion, back drive the column and eliminate the shift indicator or cover it somehow. Probably end up just blacking it out. I thought maybe aftermarket might make a plug or something similar to fill the hole.

I was hoping to reuse the original, to retain the odometer reading.

What are you guys using to cover up the shift indicator on the Speedo after switching from column to floor shift? Thanks 👍

Beautiful work, sounds great! 👍

Very nice and welcome!

I had a TH400 w/ a 3,200 stall built a few years ago to go behind my 820 hp 555 bbc in my mud truck. My trans guy recommended TCI Max Shift. I’d have to double check, but I think it was the synthetic.

I found several corpses and piles of calling cards everywhere lol

Blackhawk, thanks for the info. I didn’t know about the 30% coverage. I think the mice I evicted already tried that, haha

Are you guys putting sound deadener inside the outer door skins and the front part of rear 1/4’s? My doors are gutted right now, but with the brace also in there I’m not sure how good it will turn out trying to stick the mat behind it. Just curious, thanks 👍

I’ve gotten all my lines from Inline Tube, brake, fuel and trans too. I’ll be installing them soon, so we’ll see how they fit. I’ve ordered quite a few things from The Parts Place too. I’m detailing the engine on the stand and starting to install the front accessories. The PS bracket I got from them is way wrong, it appears to not be bent incorrectly. I ordered a new one from Ausley’s, hopefully that one fits better.

I decided to switch back to the correct long fuel pump. I ordered a stainless line from Inline Tube. I had to tweak it a little, but I’m assuming it was because of my aluminum intake height. I’m happy with the fit.

Oh boy, that’s discouraging. lol

Does anyone have a correct part number for the prebent fuel line from the pump to carb? 402 bbc, 2 line short fuel pump, quadrajet and long water pump if it matters for routing. Lots of choices online, some specify long fuel pump, quite a few do not say either way. Just want to make sure I get the correct one ordered. Thanks 👍

Thank you 👍

That’s good to hear, I will check your build thread out! Thanks !
