Need correct Muffler for 64 DeVille
Hello all.
I need to replace the muffler on my 64 and the local shop does not have the correct one.
After looking on the web site's help section, I still don't see a recommended part/manufacturer or suggestion.
What is the best solution to purchase for a stock, single system with 2 1/2 inch pipes, center in, offset out?
Thanks.
Norm

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!
