Re: Voltage regulator

Adjust the third brush to 14 or 15 amps. That's all you have to do.
I have the fun projects regulator and it works fine.

Re: Airing Out Grievances Driving In Modern Traffic

I like that brake light. Where did you get it? Not too many drivers are aware of
the limitations of older cars.

Re: exhaust manifold gasket

I think I will put a thin coat of Permatex Optima High temp
sealant. Good for exhaust headers 750 degrees.

Re: engine ticking

What oil are you using? Amsoil 20/50 may be the best or any 20/50 with zinc.

Zerk grease adapter fell into housing any harm?

While I was lubricating the throw out bearing the adapter fell off.
I tried fishing it out to no avail. Can it do any harm?
Thanks, Roger

Re: M&S shocks

I just loosened the shock links and pulled out the shock arms. At this point you can just move the arms up and down to feel the resistance. In my case there was none even after adding fluid.

Re: 46 coupe

Thanks TJ. I think I would like a complete running car. The body would have to be in good shape. I am much better with the mechanicals. Are the V8's reliable?
