Subject: starter drive

With the starter on our C freshly rebuilt, it's now strong enough to cause the Bendix drive overrun clutch to slip.  Sometimes takes several tries to get it to catch and crank the engine.  Local suppliers can't get one.  Anyone have a good spare drive assembly or know of a potential source?

You didn't mention which local suppliers but NAPA out of Atlanta lists one
in my book for a '57; Balkamp 656-1097.

Also, have you checked the condition of the teeth on the ring gear?

I just had an interesting problem with my 331 Hemi I am rebuilding.  I sent
the block to a machine shop to be cleaned and honed.  Everything is in such
good condition that I am putting the pistons back in that came out of the
engine.  The pistons are stamped STD on the top so I ordered a set of
standard bore 331 rings for it.  The set that came in were way to small for
the engine.  When I went to check the ring gap by putting them in the bore
they just fell through.  I sent them back and received another set with the
same problem.  Very confused now I took a piston down to the machine shop
and had it measured.  Turns out that it is a standard piston for a 354
engine.  My block is stamped 3NE55 so I guess someone in the past bored it
out to 3.94 inches and made a 354 out of it.  The guy at the machine shop
said he knew of people boring a 331 out to 4.00 inches.  Anyway, I am glad I
didn't order pistons for a 331 because I would have been very upset at
spending so much for something that didn't fit.  Has anyone ever had a
problem like this?  In the future do I need to just order 354 parts and
forget that the engine was once a 331?

Thanks,

Hardy

Subject: starter drive

I recently had to buy a new starter . I got it from Wilson electric, Winnipeg, Manitoba , Canada . Now that may all sound foreign , they are a very large company and their part number for a 1959 -E special starter for high performance MD-2-d-500, md-3MS-1 and MS-3 is 91-06-1834 . their area code is 204 . I only have the Chyrsler parts book for late 58 -59 and it shows that starter as new addition part number 1889-200 If you can get the old Chrysler part number ,I'm sure they will sell you a new one, or will re build in Canadian funds. I paid $ 321.00 for a new starter , which translates into $ 192.60  US. the freight is cheap heading south . I'm in a province about 3,000 miles away cost 18.00 dollars . need help E-mail me.

Subject: Starter drives, 1957 and 1959

There are two '57 drives, small and large. Large also fits 59 (must
fit 58???). Small is IMPOSSIBLE to find.   Been there, done that--no
T-shirt, but got two starters in stock that are right for the '57s
and one that is '59----I think. Re-builder looked for a YEAR for
small gear '57. Besides gear sprocket size, there is a difference in
pinion diameter.

Subject: Ram Paint

Hello, All:
For those of you doing 300F,G restos, this may be of interest.  I recently
painted my 300F rams with the NAPA (Martin Senour) #635 engine paint.  I was
under the impression this was a direct replacement for the earlier M-S #7956,
Buick Red which we have long known to be a close match to the Chrysler Ram
Red.  It is NOT!  I was quite surprised when I compared my paint job to the
Chrysler master color plate.  The correct color is much more orange appearing
than the M-S # 635.  I did have two old cans of #7956, but they did not
(after 20+ years!) have enough propellant pressure to properly atomize the
spray.  I was able to determine, however, that the #7956 color was still
acceptably close to the Chrysler master.  I, of course, contacted Martin
Senour, who referred me to Sherwin Williams.  They were most helpful, and
even sent me a can of their Krylon #2114 Buick red.  Alas!  It was the same
deep red as the NAPA material.  Since I had run out of choices, I just poked
a hole in one of my old Martin Senour cans and sprayed the rams with my
airbrush.  However, that solution doesn't help any of you.  I was hoping I
would have an answer, but at present, I do not.  Perhaps someone can help.  I
just wanted to let those of you who are interested in the correct color for
the rams know the score.
       Perhaps one of you who is a member of the Buick club could inquire as
to what they are now using.  I am no longer a member, or would have asked,
myself.  I would think there would be some Buick 430, 455(?) engine restorers
very unhappy with the so-called new Buick red.
       It may be OK to use standard (non-engine specific) paint on the rams. 
I don't know.  Perhaps a member has done that.  If so, let us know the
results.  It does seem like the rams would get a little warm at the carb heat
area.
       On a semi-positive note, I was able to get some cans of the Plasticote
#210 Chrysler "green" for our 1962 and up engines from my local Carquest
store, but they did confirm it was no longer being made.  The cans I got were
VERY dusty!
       Well, just wanted y'all to know.  Sorry for no good solution.  300ly,
Gil

Subject: Idler Arm

Does anyone know where I can get the bearings for the idler arm on my C300?
I bought a new idler arm kit from Kanter Automotive for $125.00 expecting
the bearings to be included and they weren't.  One of the bearing was frozen
up and cracked  when I removed it and I don't know of a source for a new one
so I can finish putting the front end back together.  Also, does anyone have
a diagram of the Idler arm assembly.  I want to make sure everything goes
back together like it is supposed to.

Thanks,

Hardy

Subject: 57-59 quarter panels - update

Brian, the new guy at MetalCrafters, will have us updated soon on availability of the long-awaited goodies. For whatever reason, the last guy left a confusing mess for his now frazzled replacement.

New guy says he should have a grip on things by the end of the week if we give him the time. Credit card orders have not been charged - and will not be charged until items are shipped, says he. This jibes with what my credit card balance shows. I'm assuming our east coast distributors ordered stock the same way.

True to what the all-knowing Wayne G said about patience; Goers has a 10-month order of mine, Freman a 9-month order and my local rebuilder a 7-month pre-paid waterpump rebuild. Add to this my 5-year search for good kielbasa in GA..I guess I can wait a while for rust-free quarters, darnit.

Ps.  Is Hertog really working at White Castle?

This is why many of these guys who work on or for your cars and/or homes do work of the quality of a Leonardo Da Vinci and never have two nickels to rub together.  Just try to get a home contractor to do what he says that he will do when he says that he will do it.  Yes I know there are exceptions, but I guess that I have never found one.

Forwarding this message from George Riehl:


                      NOTICE

  As of Dec. 11, 2002, 2:45 P.M. EST, Brian Weldon from Metalcrafters called
me regarding the 1957 thru 1958 rear quarter panels, in reply to my calls to
him.
  As of this time and date, no panels have been shipped to any location or
to any individual.
  Mr. Weldon has just recently been given the responsibility of this panel
project. His duties at the moment involves his attention to new car
production. And at this time he is unable to set or confirm any date for the
production and delivery of these panels.
  He has requested that all calls to Metalcrafters be stopped by individuals
and that he would be in contact with me regarding the production/delivery of
these panels. When he does have solid information, the Chrysler 300 Club
Int'l., Inc. will post the notification on our listserver and in club
publications. The Club will then notify the other MoPar clubs interested in
this project.
  This project is not of high priority for them at this time and was
basically done as a favor to Ken Mack and our club.
  When the club gets positive information, only then will the notice be
published.

Subject: Tech Question

<PRE>I'm having trouble with my F.    Runs, but just barely.  Now to the question:
do coils fail?  And if so, do they fail catastrophically, or do they
gradually degrade in their performance?  And how does one test a coil?  Just
replace it with a new one?  Thanks for whatever help is out there.  McTaggart

Does anyone have any suggestions / experience / recommendations on 4 post
car lifts?  I'm looking at Lifts Unlimited Perfect Park 7000, Eagle
Equipment SS-7000 and Greg Smith Equipmert Pro Park 7. What options /
accessories are necessary or desirable ? Is there a major advantage of a
220v power unit over a 110v unit. Thanks in advance for your input.  Doug
Warrener.

I have had great satisfaction from my Backyard Buddy. Over-engineered and very safe. PLUS, the people at the company are great. You can talk to the president who is a car guy, and designed the units anytime you want. Wonderful service, if you ever have any questions. I found the 110v unit the most convenient. Also, I bought the better quality rolling bridge accessory they have. This is for positioning another jack or jacks under the frame, once the car is up in the air. In addition, I bought the detachable castor set. That way, I can easily move the lift around in my garage, or take it outside on the cement pad, if I want to degrease a chassis, or do some undercoating. Happy Holidays to all!
