Just to add I went back and read the instruction on the Flamethrower III ignition coil and it states:
"Spark Plug Gap
In stock applications, the manufacturer's recommended spark plug, and spark plug gap will work best. For performance applications, the spark plug gap may be increased up to 0.010" from manufacturer's specifications to take advantage of the extra energy, produced by the Flame-Thrower III Coil."

If you are running a Flamethrower II or III coil with higher potential voltage you can increase the plug gap. I think I went from .035 to .040. If you are running a stock coil I would keep at stock plug gap.

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed
Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments 0 Likes
While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?
Vintage Air AC
Posted by Chase on March 21, 2024 at 5:55am 0 Comments 0 Likes
Hey everyone, has anybody done a Vintage Air AC/Heat setup in their car? I want to bypass the old vacuum setup and go with a Vintage Air Gen 2 model. Before I get started, does anyone have any experience with this? (Which model to go with, do’s and dont’s, etc.) It looks pretty involved. Any and all info/pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I would prefer to be as original as possible. Thanks

My son, unbeknownst to me, had all three of the horns on our 1963 Eldorado completely restored. We had recently added the Eldorado trumpet horn to the two standard horns and the sound was not very good... we had heard good ones so we knew something was not right... but there was not much we could do to get better sound from the 3 horns.
There is a restoration service called The Horn Works who my son…
