    You need a 211bulb. ( wrong) when he said double pole bayonet this is what I pictured in my head. Now that I've seen the real picture,I know this is wrong.

You need to change fluid anyway. Remove the cross pin retainer bolt,and cross pin. Push in on the axle pull the c clip Remove the...

    You should see how complex it was on a late 60s Olds turnpike cruiser model. Earlier though when he said what is this. I thought he was referring to the flame arrestor,not the thermac system.

    Going to a 4l60/700r4 depending on what tires you are running and what current rear gear you have,you may end up having to change rear gears also. Do you know your rear gears and what tires you are going to run?

    REDS NECK REPARES!~

    No damage on my VW Fox to get home from Independence MO. It was truly a jam and a very quick temporary fix to get home when I blew out a wheel cylinder. I did the same thing to a neighbors Ford Ranger,as a quick fix to get him home,I wasn't there when Hunters Dad did the correct repair,but I...

    REDS NECK REPARES!~

    If you clip a nail down to a short capital Tee. You can slip the stem of the Tee in a brake line,put the line back in the wheel cylinder and tighten. The nail head blocks the end of the line,so you don't have to repair a line later.

    In case of a backfire the paper air cleaner doesn't catch fire and burn the fuel in the carb,and so on and so on. Didn't use to be uncommon for a car to burn to the ground from an air cleaner fire. Yes it's a 1 in a million thing,but 100s of millions of cars used to run around with carbureators...

    REDS NECK REPARES!~

    Okay in a jam( IDK what kind of jam) soak the brakes in lacquer thinner. Shake them dry,light them on fire when they burn out the oil is gone. I'm assuming you will change the seal. If not NBD the seals will quit leaking just before you burn up the rear diff.

    Stock Cold air intake performance upgrades

    Cold air is better than hot air for performance due to air density but not the dramatic claim that some aftermarket companies claim. And yes freeing up restrictions on the air cleaner will make a difference,that's why gm used dual snorkel on some but not all. Here's some dyno testing on a mostly...

    You aren't going to get enough of a ram air effect to benefit you. The guys doing this for real are less than 1 percent gains on 10 second cars. Gains start around 70mph at .7 and 3. At 150mph . The cold air gains are great,but you aren't going to see a benefit of ram air on a street driven...

    Those would be easy enough to fab. Tubing thread one end run bolts through the bellhousing thread into tubing. Other end smash shut drill house mount to plates. Or thread screw in rod ends and bolt to plates.

    HO camaros got a dual snorkel air cleaner with cold air ducts. If you swap in a zz3 to another camaro the air cleaner is a necessary component. As @Keith Seymore said add a second snorkel. Or find a dual snorkel off a camaro,be warned they bring a pretty good price tag.
