Timmac, the main reason for buying it was, my girlfriend of 6 years left and I thought buying it would keep me busy plus driving across country has always been something I've wanted to do. But now who knows, hell the damn thing probebly wouldn't make it to the gas station anyways. Ahhh, it would make it, it would just take a while, LOL. Bob.

My most feared and excellent warrior compatriot, Honored Chancellor;
Leader of the True Sons of Kahless, welcome!! Would that the hand that
once guided my sword the Scythe of Stars to minister death to mine enemies enfold with yours and know the grasp of a kindred spirit, than this pitiful robotic shadow I extend to you now!!

Welcome to our quite unique group! In spite of the definition of our
vehicles as vintage or "older", we are probably some of the most interesting folk here in the forums. What I started as a "Hello... is
anyone out there" type thread has grown to what it is now... almost a
community unto itself, sharing wit and wisdom, fixes and information.
And a lot of humor.

Besides... I would not dare refuse so great a warrior! How many groups can actually say that they even know one such as you? or have the munificence of your patronage? The Sprinter class Bird of Prey carries the symbol of Dodge with honor and newness of form!! Its presence among the ranks of the time-tempered vessels of its kith and kin is
a thing of joy to those free of spirit and of wandering heart!

Again, my Chancellor, welcome!!

Mark, Lord Heronsgate,
the White Knight

qaleghnIS Warrior! I am Honored to be amoung some of the most Feared Warrior's on the road today! I will endeavour to uphold the tradition that those before me have set with Honor! My B.O.P. is named the MupwI' {Hammer} and I will be hitting the roads by the end of March for place far and wide! My handle is Chancellor {what else} and if you catch me we can share bloodwine, song and story about our adventures!

Chancellor Qu'noH

Chancellor of The Klingon Empire
My Lovely wife{The boss}
and PJ our dog that thinks he's human!

You must have checked out my site I had a few roles with Paramount died by poison in one. But it seems they are retiring all the series now. Made some big mistakes with the last one. But I am happy with everything the way it worked out and we are thrilled to be getting out on the road. I can't wait for the season to start. In a few years we may go full time or at least 80% of it.

A little off topic, but did you trek fans catch the ST memorebilia auction at christies. 1701-A $220,000 1701-D $500,000 Klingon Bird of Prey $190,000. All the models from the series and movies. I was surprised that the TNG items bid higher than the original series stuff.

Okay now back to topic, just a suggestion for those that may need to replace water lines. Mine had old rubber tubing that was dry rotting with age. Replaced the lines with PEX braided water lines. Learned about it from maintenence technician classes I am taking. For more info on this water line click here.

Hey chancellor, I see by your address we are almost neighbors. I am about 80 miles south. Our snow is at about 20" on the ground and being laid off at the present time have given serious thought to "puttin the irons on the tires" and going camping.

Here comes the "Chuck Wagon"

I have a NEW problem! When I purchased my 1977 Dodge Pace Arrow moho it had a 650cfm Holley card on it. I could never get it working right so I bought another used Holley and of course, the same situation. I was a life long Holley man so I bought a total of 5 used Holley's (in 3 months) from friends and ebay with no satisfaction. I was eventually talked into buying a brand new 850cfm Edelbrock Performer. I was emotionally distraught, it was like forcing a Chevy man to buy a Ford. But I've seen the light, it was like a miracle cure. I can't say enough about the new Edelbrock. Holley WHO? Edelbrock for President! I slapped the new carb on and that 440 has never ran better. The only issue I have with the new carb is the kickdown linkage is now out of adjustment because the throttle lever is slightly different. Is there an Edelbrock attachment piece I can buy? Any suggestions?

Is there an Edelbrock attachment piece I can buy? Any suggestions? Yes go to the Edelbrock site and submit your question and they will tell you what part you need and the closest place to you to get it or you can buy it from the site and have it shipped.
Unionguy 1019... Yes I was heart broken over what some of that stuff went for."kicking myself" I should have saved more of my old stuff from Next Gen.

I believe the Edelbrock kick-down adapter is Edelbrock part # EDL-8022. I found it available at summitracing.com and it was listed as Edelbrock Transmission Kick-Down Linkage. I would assume you could find this at any parts store that carries Edelbrock products.

I'm not sure you need it but they also had available the Edelbrock Throttle Lever Adapter, part # EDL-1481, for that carb.

Holley makes a good carb, your problem was buying used ones that shade tree mechanics messed up the carb and then sold off to some one else..certain auto parts should not be bought used unless the person selling it was a good mechanic....just my 2 cents....
