Can anybody tell me if a powerglide speedo cable is the same as a muncie 4 spd one on a 64-67 Beaumont? I am having speedo issues. Thanks in advance, Paul.

I have a Holley carb with center hung float bowls. Right now it feeds from the passenger side. How do I convert it to feed from the other side? How do I set the float levels as well? Thanks

Is a 283 oil pan and a 327 oil pan the same? I have a 283 that's easier to get to to put a pan on my 327. They are both 65 vintage.

I think i will just paint my exhaust manifolds rather than coat them. Has anyone had any luck with the Eastwood exhaust paint and an oven ? I have heard some good and some bad reports about this product ! If you have used it with good luck can you tell me the best method to apply. Thanks a million Kevin

Does anyone have any experience with Sanderson shorty headers on a 64-67 big block Chevelle? A friend is considering them and it would be nice to hear from someone who has tried them. Also, can't seem to find if they are fine with manual trans? (Z bar for clutch in the way?) Thanks
