Looking to change over from the manual box to power steering. Looks pretty straight forward except for the steering column shaft.
Information on the Steering column shaft is the part I am unsure of at this point.
My manual column does NOT have a rag joint. It has a can like connector between the steering column shaft and the box input shaft that…[Read more] -

If you use cork use the impregnated cork material. Did one like that, Sealed to sending unit with Permatex aircraft sealer with nothing to the tank.so I can pull it on and off tank when needed. Works well.
You could use HighTack to the tank, it would be removable.Pure cork will leak.
Don’t use silicone gasket maker, it’s not appropriate for…[Read more]

Anyone have the parts necessary to convert manual to power steering?
Assume I need-Box, bracket, pulley, pump, Pitman arm, column joint, hoses and I would have new made up.
Anything else?
I am local to San Jose and can drive a ways to pick up which would be nice rather than shipping but shipping is not out of the question.Thanks

Update-started leaking today.
Taking it out and down to the rad shop for a pressure test and solder patches. -

Used some “Permatex Fuel Tank Repair 84334”. Its an epoxy stick. Cut some off, mix, press into place. Let it cure. Looks a bit like chewing gum under a table.
Working well at this point.
The leak was a very small hole on an old crease from bottoming out at some point in the distant past.
The interior of the tank is rust free. There is an old pat…[Read more] -

I heard but have not confirmed that Corvair are the same foam and upholstery cut pattern. Not style of course.
Seats probably don’t mount the same though. -

My tank is beat up with some debatable patches. Would like to find a nice new tank but don’t see any.
Question is:
1. Are new drop in tanks available from anyone?
2. Anyone have a spare tank in nice shape?
I’m thinking shipping would be prohibitive but don’t really know.I’m close to San Jose CA and could drive out pick up if close enough.
Thanks

Don’t know but i gave my upholstery guy a set of 62 buckets with torn up covers and crumbling foam and he made some really nice orig pattern covers with his own foam. Came out really nice.
I just had him do a set for my 64 chevelle,which other than the cover pattern are same as cutlass… Abody seats. I bought quality pre-formed foam for it and…[Read more]

Yep, can be.
Zero offset on what size wheels Joe?
Does zero offset mean a 3” backspace on a 6” wheel?
Im using 15×6 with 3.5/8” backspace and a little bigger tire at 205 65 15. -

Spindle is not changed. The hub fits with same mounting flange location as original 4 lug hub. My understanding from talking with BCPP is that it is located the same as the original hub. There are also a user or two of his 5 lug conversion the the 6163skylark site. Everyone seems very satisfied. Ben is also available to talk with and is happy to…[Read more]

BCCP doesn’t. He uses a different hub.
I dont know this for sure but i believe i remember the Tempest hub in front is a five lug? There is another one or two as well I believe. Couldn’t confirm which ones. Then you go for new axles in the rear I believe. BCCP can supply or Moser will make them. Not cheap.
Also, there are two hub styles, one tha…[Read more]
