No problem with the float bowls. The air filters are the only issue. My personal preference are the HS carbs, as I have had problems getting a stable idle with the HIF ones. Both designs are quite wo

Really common problem, really easy fix. The rear axle U bolts tend to work loose as the rubber pads harden and compress. Unless you know what you are looking for, it's a tough one to catch as the bo

Sorry Mike, got carried away by the S curves. The hand brake should hold and not need constant adjustment. First question. Are you adjusting the brake shoes, or the cable. For correct adjustment, the

The Pertronix system does seem to be sensitive to shaft wear. The air gap is critical and that was one of the reasons why the very early kits had problems. The later small package kits are much bett

The wing you show is definitely the GT one. Try aligning the fender to the door, then put pressure on the front of the fender and leave it for a while. The fiberglass does move over time. I'm thinki

Check your rear brake adjustment. The pedal will have free play until the rear shoes contact the drum. If the rear brakes are not adjusted correctly the free play will be excessive. An easy test is
