Correct rims and drums?
As I am collecting items for a brake overhaul, I’ve have come across many posts about the aftermarket drums not being of quality like the originals.
I am fairly certain the drums I have are not original, but my other concern are the rims. I want them to mount and play nice with everything else.
Can anyone confirm my suspicions that the drums are NOT OEM, and the rims ARE OEM?

Thanks!

I have looked thru the forum and found the help page shows identical wheels, so I am guessing mine are original, but feel free to correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks!

The adjustment hole appears to be hidden as there is one there. However, there are NO alignment tabs after reviewing with Jason thru email.

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

Hey guys,
I have installed the same Edelbrock carb and have done everything the same as Jason’s carb and intake project. In the spring and summer months the car starts, runs and idles great! In the fall and winter months on a cold start, the car starts awful and wants to die until it warms up. I have to keep my foot on the throttle until it warms up or it will idle just terrible and try to die. Once it’s warm, it runs fantastic! Whats going on here? I was thinking of removing the…

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed
