Just curious what consensus there is on the best spark plugs to put in our 1964 Cadillac 429 V-8. Looking for brand name etc.. Thank you.
Comment
Thank you, for your time to check for the number.
Yes- already purchased them- Many Thanks.
Thanks Everyone- much appreciated.
I've been using the Autolite AP85 in my 63. Closest heat range I could find to match the AC44 that came in the car. The standard Autolite 85 would be the same heat range.
Excellent- Thanks Jason. That is just the info I needed. Much appreciated. If I cannot find them locally, I will order them from you.
I ran Bosch Platinum and high performance plugs, some hotter and some colder heat range, but went back to the old standby and use a Champion Copper RJ12YC. Seems to run like a "champ"... no pun intended. If you need any of these I sell for $20 a set and have about 8 sets on hand. I would have to go back and look at heat range (I think the 12 puts it a bit toward the hotter range as I recall?) of this plug but it seems to work well on my 64 CDV. I could not tell ANY different from using these vs the platinum plugs. It was what was cross referenced by Champion for the car and that is what I use.

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!

Who rebuilds original AC accumulator dryers for 1964 Cadillac? I have been on Classic auto air in Tampa FL wait list for over a year , There is one on Old air products web site that looks very similar to the original # 21-4214A but states it fits 1962 Gm cars, The one recommended for a 1964 Cadillac is half the length 21-4215A What is everyone using ? 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…
