I have this pair that I blindly bought a few years ago from O. D. Showtime here on the forum. Unfortunately they are different from the ones on my 79 Cutlass. They are olive(?) green, but great shape. $10 plus shipping??? .

My employer provides prescription safety glasses to those of us with vision issues (old guys) and the tech does a gap check before approving a particular frame. 3/16" or less is the standard, I think. A face shield over the glasses definitely helps. Then you can have a gap for anti-fogging and...

I used these CH3220's, but had to mount them from the bottom to clear the grilles. Much easier if the gauge cluster is already out. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000JLBHLG/?tag=gbody-20 Rktpwrd and Injectedcutty have apparently used the brs35's https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001RNNX8U/?tag=gbody-20

Looks like Carter AFB. Apparently Edelbrock carbs are based on these.

I have lived in Kentucky and Indiana all my life (55Yrs.), owned about fifteen vehicles (1975to2011) and have never once had a vehicle inspection of any sort. It all sounds strange to me.

Unfortunately Hot Rod is headed the way of the dodo bird. I obviously don't know the details of Motortrend's financials, but it seems as if they are just trying to choke it out. It's been going downhill since Petersen sold it off. I loved Car Craft, and Muscle Car Review WAS my all time favorite...

I see you don't have a rear sway bar. I understand that you may not want to modify it much, but upgraded sway bars really helps the driving experience, even the factory F41 stuff would make a difference.

The first G body I ever rode in and drove was my sister's car, a 1979 Regal, same color combination as yours, but 3.8 2brl, auto. Yours is very cool. What transmission are you punishing with the 454?

No dog in the fight here, just trying to understand. The "red to red" is just a clean air source for PCV? And the brass or pass. side ports are subject to manifold vacuum, hence the PCV valve in that circuit (in v/c or hose)?

The Dodge color is "urban camo"

Not sure what vintage your engine is, but assuming factory hydraulic roller, something like this? https://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum-8800/make/chevrolet They have larger ones too.

Is this your Granddad's place? I guess there's always been "that guy" that does cool sh*t, but who's shop is all squared away and neat. I'm the same, except for the squared away, neat, and cool.

Looks like your still pushing the range of motion limits on the roto joints. Are they feeling alright?

Might look good to radius the notch to match the top ends??
