Re: Final drive question

Mikel, Check with the GMC Motor Home guys. They seem to play with final drive/pulley ratios a LOT to get more than 8 mpg out of those monsters! http://www.gmcmotorhome.com/statistics/ Try and get a hold of Patrick Flowers and mention that Sparky referred you.

Re: Kickdown switch

Hi Mikel,

However, if you don't want to use the OEM air cleaner and don't mind punching out your hood, ...

Re: Just how bad are factory Drum brakes on '66?

Although doing a disk brake conversion on your '66 would be the bees knees, if drum brakes are done correctly, they aren't really as bad as the urban legend would make you think. I do, however, suggest a dual master cylinder/booster conversion regardless. The trick to doing a really good drum brake ...

Re: Putting on the trim...

Actually, the one on the left (lower) because it is has a rubberized tip, looks to be like a wind lace retainer for the door window top rubber seal?
