I dropped off my block at machine shop other day, and asked about balancung the crankshaft, wheter i needed to get all the pistons, rings, etc. For him to weigh them and balance. I had seen it done on utube, so was asking what he needed. He asked me if the balancer was internally balanced or not. He showed me a balancer in his stock, and showed me how the inner part was partially ridged. He saud the other type was fully rounded over the circunference of the balancer, so, my question is which would be on the 63 390 engine.

No, he mentioned it, but didnt request it. I told him my flywheel was still in the car. It may be that i hv to get that done when i get back to MT in march when i get the current engine out, then continue the buildingvfrom there

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?

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!

There is a restoration service called The Horn Works who my son…
