  1. Anyone have pictures of where the two small 1/4 inch hoses that go thru the fire wall go on the engine side?
  2. Does anyone have pictures of where the two small 1/4 inch lines that come thru the fire wall hook up?
  3. I have two small 1/4 inch lines that come out of the firewall, can anyone tell me where they go? And I'm not talking about wiper splash hoses. these look like a/c hoses?
  4. I have a 1970 Monte Carlo SS 454. It's an original build sheet car, fully restored—except for the engine. It now has a beefed-up 454 that tends to vapor lock when idling in Florida heat and traffic for extended periods. To help with this, I added a return line and a return-style fuel filter, which improved things somewhat. I was also advised to install a quality Holley fuel pump and regulator with a bypass. The issue is, no one mentioned that the bypass regulator requires a 3/8-inch return line, but my car only has a 1/4-inch return line running back to the tank. So here’s my question: Does anyone know where I can get a fuel tank sending unit with a 3/8-inch return line that fits a 1970 Monte Carlo SS tank? Or alternatively, can I safely use one of the existing fuel tank vent lines as a return? Any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
  5. PM ? you mean phone number
  6. Can you send me a picture?
  7. Trying to find lower parts for the ac vent housing. It appears to be a cover looks square that is missing anyone have picture it night be some kind of deflector that bolts to the housing. Can some one help?
  8. Does anyone have pictures of the A/c vent-on bottom next to valve for a console SS 454?
  9. Thank you that's important. what manual do you have?
  10. Actually ordered the filter I guess you mean capacitor. That's why my post is named capacitor I am trying to see if my issue is just that simple. As far as voltages when the alternator turns on by the blue wire i could see 17 volts easy. I just saw this post and wondered if he had tried that. Some people say its RMS capacitor some say its spiked voltage changes that it helps with. Simply stops burning points in regulator. etc.
  11. OOPs didn't see that...yeah, I tried that four times. I still have a overcharge issue I think. And my head lights brighten and dull depending on RPM. Seems to be eating up regulators? Could it be the external capacitor? I have heard the capacitor is for RMI and heard is just for pulses generated by a mechanically operated NOS regulator. Just looking for some more information.
  12. Did you find out the fix for this?
  13. Alternator rebuilt NOS regulator lights brighten and dim. Voltage seems to spike any ideas. ??? Capacitor issue on regular ??? I have been thru new and old regulators ???? ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED!
