    Rear glass sash rubber

    @bucket that's definitely a good point and windshield urethane is good stuff. RTV is available pretty much everywhere locally, urethane is less so, but with Amazon, its not usually a big deal.

    Rear glass sash rubber

    Do I restore my AC or?

    It it were me, unless restoring to factory specs, I'd replace everything with a modern set up and pull a vacuum and be done with it.

    Holley Retrobright radio interference solutions?

    @Turbo4whl , don't have a ground strap on the hood but ohm meter between hood and firewall shows good connectivity- same with radiator support. @bucket , When I talked to the Morimoto guy he said the loop was the only way to get rid of it. Oddly, my prior LEDs had no RFI

    Holley Retrobright radio interference solutions?

    So I bit the bullet and put the LED headlights in- and they are great! BUT they also totally kill the FM radio. Tried just sticking these ferrite cores (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08DC9JF5K/) on the leads, but no joy. Called Morrimoto who makes Retrobrights for Holley and they said I need to...

    Accel Plug wires too short

    I got ACCEL 4048 Spark Plug Wires I thought fit my 83 K20 Suburban 350 LT9 (wires route underneath the exhaust manifold), but no matter how I route the wires a couple of the wires are super short and too tight to the exhaust so expect they are wrong for my application. Frustrating as it runs...
