    What goes in this hole - 47 Buick 320ci L8 oil to top of the head

    looks like the pipe squirts added lubrication. this is similar to the late engines that have squirters under the cylinders. you can make this pipe if you don't have one. i'm sure it will be fun.

    1956 special automatic crankshaft

    Many ways to approach this: Can the machine shop TIG weld it(~1900F) and machine it? Also, brazing(~1600F) with brass or copper would be at a lower temperature. you might want to discuss this with the machine shop in regard to welding and ask if they need to bake the crank after the work to...

    Electronic Ignition

    Is this your electric circuit? I found it in the Library on this site and located in the home page. In this circuit, when the ignition switch is in ignition 1(yellow wire) it goes through the resistor, but in ignition 2(black wire), which is where the car will run, it does not. It is bypassing...

    Bottom Windshield Channel Replacement

    when the vehicles are tested, wind noise, heat and water ingress is some of many things they aim to eliminate because they negatively impact the driver or the performance of the vehicle. The workshop manual is an amazing source of information I read it every night before going to bed.

    63 skylark single to dual master conversion

    I want to add a booster like you have because it angles the setup to clear the chassis. Then I won't need to cut or reinforce the chassis for the mod.

    Buick letters

    I've been browsing around and it looks like I have a late reproduction letter. The indicator is that there is no numbers or letters to identify and that at the base of the studs it becomes a square in respect to my letter that does not. But, aside from that it absolutely will not work on my...

    Buick letters

    I purchased a letter "I" on ebay with excellent chrome. I was too lazy to measure my old letter on my 63 skylark because it looked so alike. I receive it and the mounting studs are 1/2 " seperation center to center. My "I" on the hood of the skylark are 5/8" separation center to center. Another...

    Engine identification

    I think we should move "Reference" along with "Library" to top of list with larger Red font. And or add some fairy magic so it can be found. Bob, you working extra.

    1965 GS floor shift neutral safety switch

    I used to have an intermittent stalling from my 63 vehicle with 4GC, shifter on column, and AUTOMATIC dual path transmission. It occurred in all kinds of nerving situations: intersection, making a turn, freeway, etc. The nipple on the neutral switch broken off made it possible to turn the car on...
