62 Cutlass Convert

I think Rare Parts Stockton CA has em. Have shop buy it, much better price.

The SP-22F has the ridge, fits perfect for the little bottom clamp.
If I had a choice I’d gone with the top clamp style, more versatility.

I believe that MC is also for power brakes and has a shallow pocket for the actuating rod, manual brake MCs have a deep pocket for that rod. You can make it work but you need to fab up something to prevent the rod from slipping out. There are options for 1” manual MCs, I think I have the same 7/8” as Joe and although the pedal is low it works gre…[Read more]

Yes, see an earlier post for dim differences

i Believe others here have done their own and gasket style is not that hard if you take your time and follow procedures. Used to pop my rear truck window out and in for a camper install, easier than a windshield but similar procedure with a cord. You can save money. I had mine done for me.

I bought a SP-22F, fit perfect. Was told it’s Nla as a car battery and is designated a garden tractor batt. Works good, 3years old, left lights on About a year ago and ran it flat and it charged back up and still going.

Too bad, basic function of a website gone. You’d think he could add it if directed to. Well at least we know what happened, poor work.

It would really be nice if the Webmaster would post a message as to status of the Old Search function.

I believe some massages have gone direct to them or I would imagine the monitor the Forum?

Wonder if the spring rates are diff for the diff bars? As far as being a purist, those were the days when you could order things like sway bars, HD cooling, stiffer springs etc etc on a car that didn’t “come” with them as stock. If it was available, the factory would equip the car as desired in many cases.

Sent a message to the Contact at top of page. Who does that go to?

Isn’t there a way to contact him through the website? Usually there’s a way to report problems by members of a forum.

Neither 62 cutlass conver has the collar with rubber. The 62 Jetfire has the collar with rubber.

Very good article on gauges and probes in MAD Electrical. Go to MAD Electrical site, “Work Shop “ Tips tab to the right on top and see “Water temp gauge accuracy”. This is a great resource for electrical stuff.

I had two probes for my elec gauge, Stewart Warner, one in car and one new in box in on shelf. I plugged the new one into the factory…[Read more]

Any action on this?

Check the 6163.Skylark forum for an extended thread on the conversion. Both Scarebird and BCCP conversions are covered. Several of those guys are using a Rambler manual mc I believe. Cheap and small for Manual brakes, drum/drum but they like it for the disc/drum. BCCP will sell you one of their new alum mcs which is small, manual, and expensive.…[Read more]

Nobody else concerned about loosing access to all that banked info?

Still no ability to search for historical info since there is no functioning search function.

Can the Webmaster please comment on the problem?

Is it under resolution?
