Nice looking car. The Super sport. Brake problems solved. Thank you Rich. Great video. 💕👊👍💯

Well @1:28:00 you can see us, way in the background 😂😂😂 but we are there 👍🏻👊🏼🙌🏼

Lenox step bits

That booster should have come with a new rod. I just put a new booster on my Chevy K20 pickup and the rod that came with the new booster was shorter than the old rod so I just used the old rod.

Ford nine inch, or 8.8. It will always be there to deal with any engine upgrades. Spend now, save later.

Can't go wrong with A-body content....great job Rich...thanks....🔧🔧👍

More throw, less leverage.

If you get the rearend it's done. For me everytime

No such thing as a big block Pontiac…

Talented technician 😊🏆

I fitted a kit to my 65 gto that used those front calipers and no amount of adjusting or bleeding ever gave an acceptable pedal feel. Bit the bullet and fitted a set of 13 inch corvette discs and a second hand set of corvette PBR calipers and a simple gravity bleed instantly gave a high and firm pedal. Chinese junk calipers.

I’d figure new disc and pads

Iv seen a deal another you tuber used that he could push a button on a remote and it would pump the brake pedal for him so could 2 man bleed by your self on junk yard digs channel.

My great uncle in Illinois has a 66 identical to this one with white interior. Original 396 SS

cornwell has nice drill bits the step tip little pricy they only warranty the bits 5/16th and up but i dont remember

Cool 😎 ! I use the Russel “Speed Bleeders “ in my four cars for a one man bleed . They have a one way valve to let air out .

great job Rich

Beautiful car ❤

I am in dire need of a n AMC 304 distributor hold down. My machine shop lost mine and I can’t find one anywhere on the internet. Any help would be greatly appreciated

When I was in high school. I'll never forget what the teacher told us. 99 percent of the parts on a automobile don't work, the car does not move. If the brakes don't work properly you don't stop. Thats kind of important. I tested his therie.on a 71Torino with rear brakes only. Yuup not even close to stopping. Fire hydrant stopped it right now, ruined my car. But he was absolutely right.

You need to replace that shirt brother! I surprised you don’t feel a draft! 😂

I agree with the previous comment. Find a good used 12 bolt posi with some decent gears and go have fun. They are easy to upgrade and the parts are relatively inexpensive.

Inline tube is a good company for retro upgrading

Incorrect rod ?

I like the way Rich can take a break and walk away from frustration and come back later. Rich loves his test drives

So, did lowering the brake rod to the lower hole improve the brakes? I missed that part

👍👍

A buddy of mine called me at work and askedd if I could stop by this guys shop and help with get the brakes done on a very cherry 55 big block so I stopped by and the pedal went to the floor he had been working on the brakes for almost a week,so I did the brake pedal and just laughed and he said what I said you dont have the right rod from the boooster to the master so we changed it out to the long,went for a road ttest and if you didnt have your seat belt on you would go through the windsheild,the guys said how do you do this on fixing cars

No matter how much time or money it cost it don't matter cars got to stop you can always make It Go back in the day my buddy said you wasted all that money on breaks on your Camaro I said yeah I want to stop I can always make it go have a great day

That's on my buddy used to say don't get old you won't like it I'm old I can't build cars or racing anymore but I enjoy your videos

Amen brother. Too late for me, but solid advice. Don't get old.

going behind somebody else's work is scary.slotted rotors are a ripoff

Keep in mind the clutch assembly is directly below the vvt solenoid, so put several rags down there before taking the solenoid off or oil will seep into the bellhousing. Ask me how I know.

They never sound as good on video as actually driving 😊

Your pocket book, but once cry once😂

Do you need to spray vht on stainless tubes to protect it from water soaked in by the wrap? And how long do these wraps last?

Im dreading the coming fight with my 3 65 model bop rear buicks. My drag and drive car is going to have to get a QP 9 inch without a doubt but the other 2 i worry about getting parts when things go wrong just like that kne did.. and they will go wrong

What a GORGEOUS car !!!!

And then Matt ran his mouth. Got sent back to Delaware. Hasn't done much since.

I have a 2004 Z06. Hope this doesn't happen to me.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy are you deaf

A Capri video. I have not been here since the last Capri video. I will be back when and if you ever make more and sort all the v6 engine stuff out. There just isn't enough of these cars getting attention on the tube

Austin has driven the wheels off of the car get a complete rear end setup for the yellow one and swap out

Austin it has happened to all of us at some point. Sorry for the bad news. Rich knows his stuff. Thank you for sharing. 💕👏👊👍

years ago i had a 455 1969 skylark it blew out every b.o.p. i put in it, finally put a chevelle 12 bolt in it ,problem solved ,it always destroyed the spider gears in the b.o.p rear ends

Would run what you got and build what you want after the event

I bought a SD-455 new in 74. It came with a 308 gear because of the air conditioning. I was told that it was necessary because a higher numerical gear would throw the belt. After the warranty was expired, I had the gear changed to a 3.73. I also added hooker headers and a B&M transpak and a Holeshot converter. When it was stock from the factory I ran 13.8 at National Trails on street nights. With the headers, converter and new gears, it would run 12.20's all night. So my experience is that for 1/4 mile racing, give it some gear.

455 will push 3.36 just fine. Get rid of those cooper cobras for something sticky and just send it!

WOW!!!! THAT REAR IS JUNK!!!!

Could only image what the rear axle sounded like when it was rolling along.. good content and thanks....🔧🔧👍
