Water pumps
Hi, for the 63 cdv, has anyone bought one lately? There was a discussion couple years ago regarding gates, cardone suppliers. Apparently, the gates impeller stuck out a tiny bit which would impair the unit to function. But the cardone unit had the proper specs. That was several years ago, thus the updated question,,currently, cardone are unavailable on the usual suppliers like rockauto, et al.
CSO I was wondering if anyone had purchased another supplier beside cardone. Also, on Ebay, there are several rebuilt units for sale, would you consider Ebay a reliable source of a rebuilt unit..
Thanks

I would not, with the reason of quality control. If you have an old pump, send it out to get rebuilt. I have cores for 25.00 if needed.

would this be the correct impeller for the 63, the side view of the picture of the parts repair manual looks very similar, and some photos of the cardone replacemnt looks very much the same.
What clearance or measuremnt and where would be needed to determine if this pump is set correctly, and what is that measurement,,

That is the correct impeller. The gap needs to be in the 1/16 range to 1/8

Were is the gap to be measured from? The. Exposure of the prop from the base? The inner gap from the back of the propeller to the back of the case? Just not sure which meant I, looking for

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

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
'63 Eldorado trumpet horn + 2 standard horns restoration
Posted by Les Eastling on November 15, 2023 at 10:34am 1 Comment 0 Likes
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…
