How does the convention support day visitors?

Say I wanted to attend just as a day visitor. Park my Pontiac, like at a Cruise Night, check out the other cars, grab stuff to eat. Is that...

Coming up on a month, but I should have it in the next day or two.

Like I said in my previous replies, I had more time to get into trouble in other areas. I've kind of dug into the battery tray...

Well, they must be good as they have that unobtainium look and feel. Been on back order since the 16th...back to more grinding sanding and painting I guess....

A 20 mile cruise mixed highway and back-road during an 85 F day yielded a...

I used a metal can filter from NAPA that flows something like 6-8 GPM using 3/8" inlet and outlet.

Interesting point about a return line. I note Ames performance lists return lines for...

In way of an update. Replaced all the rubber lines this past weekend. Cut in a fuel filter and had to fabricate a temporary bracket. Searched for pictures of the original OEM solution as the factory...

As part of a planned preventative maintenance I'm replacing all of the rubber hoses and the mechanical fuel pump in my 66 Pontiac GP w 389 (no AC).

I note it has he original factory 12 point...

Hi Vince,

Thank you for the response. Took the simple approach and went through all the clamps. Sure enough they all needed a good snugging up. After a week in the unheated garage, although I...

What's with these old cars? I have all new hoses and clamps, cleaned all the connections. I also used a general purpose sealer on the connections, but if my 66 Grand Prix sits idle for a few weeks...
