So, it's been on there for a couple of months, and while I haven't put many miles on it (~30) it works great.

One question: What are you all seeing for voltage out of this alternator? I expected ...

Another interesting thing I learned:

The caliper that I used that bleeder rig on was a factory rebuilt unit. Mine stripped out because Centric, the rebuilder, drilled and tapped the caliper for a ...

There`s a repair kit available in motorcycling circles that is just what you need. Have used them successfully a few times now. IIRC the bleeder thread is drilled out & tapped to 7/16" (UNF?) ...

I'm midway through that process now. The fuel lines on my 77 are not in the tunnel, they run along side. They are all steel. There's a hose from the steel line to the fuel pressure damper, and anot ...

Mike--

It took a couple years, but that was a huge help for me.

Thanks,

That's how I built mine, actually. I don't have a welder here. I've got some cut down and stubby 17mm wrenches. We'll see tonight how it works.

I'm hoping that I can pry the alternator case aw ...

resistor has to be anything between 35 and 500 Ohms. It is the resistance that tells the voltage regulator to operate. This is known as exciting. The Cs-144 has an option for a self exciting regulator ...

Aha. My bushings are actually just fine, so I've left them in there.

The resistor required is a curious thing. Some sources call for 35 Ohm, 3 Watt, others says 82 Ohm, 5 Watt. Radio shack has a ...

At this point I went to test fit the top mount and discovered that the corner of the back mount would not let the alternator mounting holes meet up. So I ground the the corner down a bit to allow ...

I discovered that the fuel pump grounds to the body, back under the plate lights. Mine was very corroded, and I ran a dedicated ground wire back to the engine compartment.

I like it. Easy enough to replace the wiring.

Thanks, Ozzie, for the response. Fuel filters are new.

Good point about the control/ system pressure. I'll be back at the car in 4-5 hours and will try to get a real reading on the pressures. ...

I'm looking for sounding board help. I’m trying to diagnose a fuel pressure problem on my 77 NA 924. The car starts and runs, but the fuel pressure is erratic, and it drops as the car runs for a min ...

Excellent, I have been having zero luck finding those after I snapped one on my fuel distributor.

I made my own banjo bolt for one of the injector lines with a 8mm bolt and an 1/8" drill bit ...

And the 77 stock distributor triggers the MSD box fine? I'm looking at upgrading ignition in my 77 to the same stuff I used in my Jeep, but I wasn't sure if that stock dizzy would trigger it.

I'm ...
