The 510 Realm

I have spent the last two days testing the car. fresh fuel in, so I can boost with confidence now. Adjusted valves, they were loose. Adjusted carb a few times, went to Specialty and had Andy listen to a "noise" and check valve train, all good. Took it for a good spin today and some traffic...

That looks good. You will have gained a bit of camber at the back, so that is a good thing.

Possibly some at the front too.

As the control arm goes up..or the body comes down..... The marked lip to the control arm surface just needs to be checked for clearance,when the suspension is fully compressed. Static height might be just fine, but, it is under full bump compression that just needs to be known. Hope that helps. I o...

I will send you a pic, just need to drag it into Paint and then draw a circle on the area, you will understand in a blink. Originally, the sway bar end link mounted on the end of the bump rubber, as the bolt came through the bottom of the spring well. The bump rubber was likely 3 - 4 " tall, fi...

Looks good. There "might" be a number on the spring that would be the spring rate...maybe not. Once you have car on ground, at the rear, you can see the free clearance from the control arm to the body lip, there, you could put some sticky putty to see if it the lip touches it, and or what ...

I lucked out too, at least close enough, that I had a number stamp set at work that was almost identical to my 73' numbers.

It is EXACTLY:

4" x 2 3/4"...holes are 3/16"

I had a bunch made up years ago, should do another batch.

I concur with those lights that had the metallic edge where the lens edge grounded on the headlight bucket!

It was either Hella or Bosch when some came out like that.

It haunted a few people till that got figured out.

I'm going to think in that time period...exact...not sure. This was before my digital camera so that time period for me was film, which is in a massive tub of albums. There I could figure the date as my albums are all lineal through time and events. A great snapshot( pun intended) of years of amazin...

All I remember...on my 510 I had LOW voltage issue on the back tail lights..they would not fire till I figured that out...I think it was around 10 volts...our old wiring and corroded connectors. My vintage Boler trailer, which I converted to LEDS, both internal and external, dove me CRAZY on one sid...

This is a poster I did up for advertising...

That picture is taken in Turn 9, last blast to the finish line.

There's a blast from the past for you...don't remember who was driving on this run...

Morning World! These tires are so sticky...I have hung them in the basement as a fly trap...I call them my Yokohama Fly strips...likely won't get them mounted till into May. For a tire rated 200 TW...there is some serious BS going on. I would suggest by all the track/solo tire makers. My A-048's wer...

Wish I could help more,

Me & Mr. Electron have an adversarial relationship at the best of times!!
