Hi, Needle. Yes, if I'd had an adjustable reamer in that range, I probably would have tried it. I did happen to have the two fixed ones from the TR6...

You know, this is amazing. I searched eBay and elsewhere on the internet for a week or more for these gauges. I found a few, but most were either not...

Sent you a PM, Jim...

I run my pressure pot blaster with a fairly small nozzle and a 5 hp compressor with an 80 gallon tank. I consider the compressor adequate, but barely....

Thanks, guys. This is actually for my GT6 project. The GT6 only has a fuel and temp gauge, and i want to add the others to match. The existing gauges...

I'm looking for a restorable Smiths voltmeter and oil pressure gauge. I need the kind with the pointer pointing downward.

What years had...

Most of us of a certain age can relate.

Thanks.

I think 0.002 clearance would be fine for a street car. Racers sometimes want a little more.

If it is 0.002 wear, that may be different....

I think the stock type clips work fine if the clips themselves are not distorted, the panel is not damaged around the clip hole, and the clip is well...
