(Preview)
I have a friend I grew up with in northern Minnesota that has a 1950 Lincoln with a 337 CI flat head that Lincoln used in cars from about 1948 through 1951 and then some truck applications.

Steel, metro or soft-seal for door weatherstripping?
(Preview)
Whats the verdict? I've read some posts and most recommend metro. Steel is quite expensive, around $150 for a set. Metro about $110 and soft seal about $90.

The handle allows for smacking it with a hammer for removal after the bushing has been pressed in. It just makes th...

Cranking Compression Readings
(Preview)
So I wanted to check the overall health of the mystery 350 SBC motor in my Chevelle, and checked the cranking compression of each cylinder when the engine was cold. After reading more on how to do the cranking check, I realized I was supposed to have taken all of the spark plugs out then install the gauge...

Another option for controlling TCC on overdrive transmissions
(Preview)
Never seen this one before but I like the fact it uses vehicle speed and a throttle position input to control when the TCC comes on and off. Never used this kit myself but I see their are a few guys swapping in 200 transmission in the near future. Might be something to check into if you are keeping the TCC. ...
