Thanks! New sub. I was looking for a reason my old one-wire alt drains the battery to ZERO overnight. I just got my 69 C10 back from a "mechanic" that rewired some stuff. He added a negative terminal disconnect and said the new EFI had a drain. It does a little but not enough to kill an Optima red overnight. I'm thinkin he wired it wrong. He did some other dumb stuff too. Time for me to work on it!

20 pounds of $hit in a two pound bag. Those pedal centerlines seem pretty far apart. The Vair is 8 inched between centers. What’s the center distance on the Impala? My brother had similar issues on his 51 Studebaker/small block Ford setup. He did what you are thinking about. He cut the tabs and shifted the pedals to the left a couple of inches.

For these older return style LS fuel systems, you need an ACDelco pump for it to function properly. Aftermarket ones fail and are cheaply made or have extra parts attached that aren’t necessary. I learned my lesson after I bought an aftermarket pump which looked very identical to the OEM one. 4k miles later and the float completely broke off inside my tank and took out the signal wire for the gas gauge.

Dude, I did a complete new set of injectors on my Dakota last year, the parts were purchased at one of our local parts stores. One of the injectors was bad out of the box, a second one failed 300 miles later. I ended up replacing the 2 bad injectors with the ones I removed. These aftermarket parts are trash.

Fk yeah man. I have a 64 SS that I stopped working on in 2010 when my dad died. I’ve been thinking about seeking it because the floors are gone. Had a guy restoring it back before dad died but I ran out of funds and a drive to do it after that. This makes me really want to try to do the floors myself. I was outside cleaning the whole thing out today as it’s literally been sitting with all the parts in it for like 14 years. It already has new rear quarters. So floor pans and trunk pan is pretty much it. Great work

The return was a non barbed 5/16 line, it looked like it should have been the vent. The vent was 3/8 and barbed to accept the two piece fitting to use a -6 fitting. So it was an easy mix up but with disastrous results. That all went in when I was just helping him finish the car, probably three years ago. Not sure if that will be next weeks video or an update video on the 49 truck.
