    Dan, just wanted to let you know that you have really helped me get over not accomplishing much because of my perfectionism. I've let it go and have got tons done and had a lot more fun doing it, you da man sir! Thank you!!

      Same, first old car project I had a few years ago, was wire wheeling and painting every part that came off.
      Never even planned on restoring it, just had that "while I'm in there" mentality.
      Watching Dan and guys like him, I realized you just have to wrench on it, so you can thrash on it.
      Made a ton more progress with the new project than I ever did with the old one.

    Dan, you will have full vacuum advance all the time with the line placed on the tunnel ram. It will run better placed on the metering block.

    • @seanodonoghue8248
      @seanodonoghue8248 2 года назад +5

      yep vacum advance needs ported vacum to work properly

    • @millionmilegarage9587
      @millionmilegarage9587 2 года назад +1

      Actually with manifold source it’s full vacuum advance at idle, above throttle plate (metering plate port) brings in advance when you crack the throttle open, only difference. Every engine combo is different, some need full advance at idle some don’t. Most early cars before emissions era used manifold vacuum. My 360 Duster with low compression, power steering and auto trans will not idle in gear with ported vacuum. My 400 powered AT A/C Camaro idles smoother with ported vacuum even with accessories on, it’s. a 9:5 engine with mild cam. In my opinion It really depends on engine combo.

Sold it before I ever drove it while it was still 'in progress' in the garage. People like big blocks in Nova's...and everything else. Keep up the good work! :)

    To cover that distributor , take a two liter pop bottle and cut one end off of it and slide it down over the cap and wires . Works equally well for four wheeling . 4:10 gears at a minimum with a tunnel rammed Rat Motor , for real fun try 5:13s around town .

    Gosh that brings back memories! My first car over 40 years ago was a big block 69 Camaro with manual steering and 4 speed. I could tell you had a manual tiller. Big blocks make the car a completely different animal. This would be the car to perfect and preserve on this summer.

    • @electrix6751
      @electrix6751 2 года назад +2

      Exactly! That's what I've always said, a "different animal" vs. one equipped with an auto trans. Back in the day all the hipo Mopars I owned and drove on the street had a) big block wedge engine (and once a 426 Street Hemi), b) manual steering and c) manual brakes. No power-robbing accessories period!
