  1. Save the gl1 for the transmission and just use a modern gl5 90wt oil for the rear.
  2. I use undercoating inside the fenders only to prevent rock damage visible on the shiny side, applied over paint. Floor pans get painted with enamel with no undercoating. Sound deadener gets installed inside only after painting the metal.
  3. FYI, I've had 6v horns on 12v in 2 of my hotrods for years. No problem and nice and loud!
  4. Pretty sure these are the same size a early HEMI blocks. Hot Heads and others sell screw in core plugs for the issues I mentioned early in this thread. Easily installed in the car.
  5. A Runtz resistor for your fuel gauge. Forget about the radio, you're also changing polarity. Disconnect it Wiper motor is probably vacuum operated Horns don't care Replace horn and starter relays. Starter doesn't care. Clock (if you have one) doesn't care. I used a mid 60s Dart heater blower motor (12v). Change out headlamps and light bulbs to their 12v equivalent. Swap your ammeter wires around since you're changing to negative ground. If you are running more than a 50a alternator, bypass the ammeter. Make sure you're wiring is in good shape or replace it!!
  6. Can't help you with the seat belts as I only have lap belts front and back but I wanted to say that is a nice, clean looking interior.
  7. Ice will crack your block long before any core plug will pop out. They are there to remove casting sand, any other function is a myth.
  8. I clean and JB weld my core plugs in, mostly on Hemi engines that have a history of blowing them out on hard use. They use the same plugs as our flatheads and still come out when replacing.
  9. May be at an extreme angle when the body is put back on and the suspension compresses
  10. Cut that clip off and splice it on to an original frame if you must, it might also be too wide... Frame swaps almost always end up looking like frame swaps.
  11. Jack the front wheel off the ground and rock it top to bottom, up and down and look for movement in the kingpin area. Might as well check your tie rod ends while you're at it. Your smart phone should have an angle meter on it, check camber degrees with it before jacking the car up.
  12. I would check your kingpin / bushings on the side that's wearing before anything else. Could also be a bent spindle Probably not toe because it's only 1 side. EDIT: Check wheel bearings also
  13. I always pack the seals with grease to keep the springs from falling out.
