Front cover leak
What are the yellow highlighted things? As I will replace front cover gasket, oil pan gasket and tear main seal along with rear main bearing cap fix, is there going to be something else needing attention with these yellow highlighted items?!i

THise rubber tits are the oil pan gasket as pictured below. For the rear main seal, DO NOT USED Best Gasket brand as it is a known defective seal The company knows about it and continues to sell them.
Get a good rear main seal from Caddy Daddy. Use a seal saver on the harmonic balancer to repair the lip in the sealing surface.

Thank you! Learned something new about the front and rear gaskets on the oil pan!
Russ, not familiar with a seal saver for the harmonic balancer?

Hi Dave,
I haven't had to use one, but if there is a groove in the harmonic balancer (the part that fits onto the crankshaft), the thin seal saver can allow a smooth rotation near the front seal. Russ is 100% right. It might tap on easier if H. Balancer is frozen and sleeve is heated in oven.

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

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!

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
