    Small Block Engine Detailing Article

    Here are a couple pictures of an engine I detailed about a year ago...not the greatest, but you should get the idea. Some of the details were just mocked up and not the completed detailing. Danny

    Small Block Engine Detailing Article

    Yes and no. All the water pump bolts that hold the pump to the engine were painted with the engine; however, bolts that held accessaries remained unpainted. Danny

    28 or 31 Spline Rear

    A 1968 S-code non-GT would come standard with drum brakes...if the S-code was ordered and the GT package also ordered disc brakes became a mandatory additional cost option. This is documented in the original sales brochures and many years of observation. Additionally, a mid-year update...

    I think they are include in the complete kit that either AMK or Daniel Carpenter offers (can't remember which kit I bought) but my car has them and I did not buy any plug separately. Danny
