I'm very happy with how these 2010 Honda Accord 2 door coupe door seals fit on my 1963 C10. I needed another 4" piece because the seal isn't quite long enough for a knee knocker cab (1960-63. It's the perfect length for the 1964-66 cabs and seals the door nicely. Here's a DIY video showing how to do a Jeep input shaft swap in an S10 T5 transmission. Video shows a 1993 S10 T5 but the procedure is essentially the same for 1992 and earlier S10 T5 transmissions. The video is 30 minutes because I show every tip and detail I know to help you succeed. Items needed: T5 Jeep input shaft with 21 gear teeth and 10 splines New brass 4th gear synchro ring (with the small notches) RTV sealant New input shaft bearing and race Shop press Bearing grease New bearing retainer seal A selection of shims for the bearing retainer Socket wrenches DEX/MERC ATF These Corvette rocker covers are correct for a 283 or 327ci engine from the 1960's.
Some one else cut a hole in the top of one rocker. So I decided to repair the hole. Today was the final step in the restoration. I polished the outside. The area between the fins and around the script is difficult to polish, so I cleaned and painted that area black. Then I scraped the paint off the very edge of the fins and top of the script. I like the results. My 1963 C10 needs rust repair and I have not had time to do it. So I shipped it 600 miles and out of state to a great body shop that works on classic vehicles. I arranged shipment through Mercury Auto Transport. Everything was handled properly and I'm very happy with their service. 5 STARS!!!!
SOLD!
This 1993 WC T5 will be for sale on eBay. It's been cleaned and inspected. The bad synchronizer was replaced and it's now ready for service again. I bought this 1965 SBC 283 as a parts engine for parts I needed for my Jasper 283. Then the parts I needed became available from another source, so I decided to have this complete engine rebuilt as a hot rod medium performance engine. So it has a nice cam and upgraded parts. Comp Cams 268H camshaft New pistons are 0.060 over Crank and rod bearings and a new oil pump Double roller timing chain The engine was really crusty when it was disassembled. Fresh and clean from the machine shop.
The carb is adjusted and the timing is set. Runs pretty well. Time to do another one. I rebuilt another Rochester 2Jet which will go on the next SBC 283ci. |
