Spin Tech's are my favorite. Running them on my CJ Mach with H pipe. Previously ran them on a 427 in a 68 GT 500 with full 3" exhaust, Tri Y headers, and Dr Gas X pipe. I'm going to duplicate that exhaust on my 427 Fairlane.

After waiting 10 months for some Fairlane door panels from Mac's, they cancelled the order. Another supplier had them to me in a few months.

Thanks Bob. Would the instrument voltage regulator affect the function of the other gauges?..they seem to be ok.

I'm working on my neighbor's factory pink/white interior 289 4-speed convertible. The gas gauge is not working, or only works inaccurately. My guess was a hole in the float. I pulled a C8 FoMoCo fuel sending unit out of the tank and the float was good. Does it matter that it is a C8 unit? I then grounded the fuel sending unit wire with the key on...the gauge did not move. How do I test the fuel sending unit? Should I test the output of the instrument panel voltage regulator? Next steps?....I'm a little stumped. Thanks.

Agree with Coralsnake's advice!

Big bath of Evapo Rust is a good start. I lined a long rectangular box with drop cloth plastic from Home Depot to do my driveshaft.

Might use it in a fastback since coupe trunk is deeper.

I think your fuel sender float has a hole and is filling with some amount of liquid. Easy fix. Happened to me as you describe.

What's the name of the hack insurance company?

Bret, it would be cool to know the history of this one!
