The larger filter is better....greater capacity. If you compare oil filters for a car and a truck with the same motor you will see that the truck filter is usually bigger. So using the larger one is fine on a car as long as there are no clearance issues.

I usually use K&N HP2003...

What brand and part # are they coming up with..also what auto parts store? Autozone lists the correct Fram PH25 or taller PH11, and STP S25. I tend to use the STPS25 simply for the color. I peel the label off to match the engine better! LOL.

1964 power steering sector rebuild

Posted by CHRIS CARLSON on March 20, 2023 at 11:32pm 3 Comments

 I'm having my steering sector rebuilt, and considering changing it from 20-1 ratio 4.2 turns lock to lock to 3.5 turns lock to lock @ 16-1 ratio, If i change from a 3 1/4" box to a 3" box i could have a 14-1 Ratio steering response would be faster, shorter distance to turn the wheel to get a response,   has anyone done this? and how do you like it? thank you

Posted by Curtis Dover on January 2, 2023 at 5:23pm 0 Comments

Hey guys, I need some help.  Could someone send me some pictures on how the first hood release lever on a factory 1964 Cadillac is set up, where it comes though the grille. Not the secondary one. I need to know where the thumb or finger position is located through the grille. Is it above or below the center grille molding piece? Mine seems to be positioned behind the center molding piece and will not adjust above or below the molding. I have a wire tied to it to release it…
