I think you’ve sold me with the rust stains. Plan this winter is to save for some new tires. I’ve got a spare set of. 15” 5on5 rims. Mount the old tires to those rims, have the 5 Cadillac rims powder coated and then when I store the car in the winter. I don’t get flat spots on the good summer tires. 

Thanks for the reply!

Hey, Logan. I think I paid $500 for 5 wheels. They're done in Eastwood Machine Gray. It's not quite the color from the factory but it looks a little better in my opinion. It's definitely a bit tighter of a fit with the caps, but it's worth it knowing I'll have a longer lasting finish and won't have to scrub rust stains off my white wall tires anymore.

These look great! Would love some more details on the color you went with and if you had any fitment issues with hubcaps or mounting tires? And, if you care to divulge how much you paid? If not, I understand! Don't want to be too pushy, I am looking to have my set of wheels powder coated as well.

 I just replaced my tires from Diamondback (I had bad results in the past from Coker).  It was the second time, due to the age of the tires.  About 18 years ago Diamondback made custom whitewalls…Continue

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 14 Comments

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

Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments

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?
