If all is good with Jeffs replay #1. I would check the continuity of both steering wheels. From the slip ring to the terminals of the horn with the wheel removed.

I installed a Ram 88883 clutch kit for my 428.

Two years ago, I sand blasted my air cleaner lid and painted with the VHT paint. I did this in the sun on a day that was around 100'. Could not be happier with the results.

Brian Styles from the research group provided me with very good information in regard to my car, emailed me with documentation that was as good or better than the Marti report that I purchased years ago. I don't know anything about the car being questioned but I did appreciate the information that I received from the group on my 67.

I used Cougars unlimited because of the kit(sequential box) and it all looks factory other than brighter bulbs. If someone just wants bulbs I'd recommend my friend Bill  who owns HIPO parts. He was at the forefront of LED lighting for classics after he left Ford Motor company and moved "up North" from Dearborn to Gaylord, Mi. Bill will set you up right and he is a car guy mostly 71-3 Mustangs and Boss 351s.  https://www.hipoparts.com/

Do can you put a LED 1157 type bulb in a 67 tail light? With no problems? And without having to play with something else?
For me installing the LED 1157 in my 67 was easy. Had to move the spare tire a little. Flashers flash at normal speed. I did check out HIPO parts and they have a nice LED dash kit with a light blue tint.

I have read post about LED upgrades.  I bought these bulbs off of Amazon and I could not believe how much brighter they are than the old incandescent bulbs. Not sure of their longevity. With lights on high beam on and car at idle with emergency flashers on headlamps would slightly pulse, they do not now. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0932SW27C?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1

Thanks for all the input. I have been running the carbs without the check ball for many years and haven't noticed any problems. After the quotes from the members I will be putting them back in and check on the modifications to the ball seat.
Thanks

I just rebuilt the BJ/BK carbs on my GT500. What are the opinions on the .125" check ball for the secondaries diaphragm of the BK carb. Use or not?

Haven't worked in a while, so I am getting ready to dig into these.

If I am not mistaken, don't they run off the dimmer switch on the floor?

Any common areas I can easily check 1st?
Fuses?
Bad wiring?

Thx
Does the high beams work in your outboard fender lighs.  This could help direct you to the switches or wiring.

Clifford I got a call as well. Told him I do not have any cars for sale. After hanging up with him I thought I should of asked the questions you did.  If you google his phone number it shows he is some kind of dealer and shows up on the other Shelby forum. Chad Struer

Can someone please set me straight?  "67 GT500, outboard lights are only low beam and inboard lights are high beam?
My car presently has outboard lights that are low/high beam and inners that come on with high beam.

Looking for new bulbs that's why I'm asking.

Thanks for the help.

Terry
What you have is correct. My car presently has outboard lights that are low/high beam and inners that come on with high beam.

@BDT739 do you have a charger hooked up when the car sits?

Yes. Battery Tender float charger.
