You can however put in a 64 engine with the Hydra Matic crank. It bolts right up to the…"
63 and 64 engine block interchangeable?
I read the section: 1963 & 1964 Engine and Transmission Facts, but still in doubt if the engine block of a 63 and 64 are the same and interchangeable?More specifically, will I be able to use all my internal parts, heads and intake from my ´63 on a ´64 block. Except for the pistons.I found a crack in the block of my freshly rebuilt ´63 engine. Sourcing a ´63 block here in Europe is not easy, and if a ´64 block is the same except for the bore, that might ease the seach.See More

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

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…
