I only have access to the 72 service manual right now, but they were all POA systems during those years, so the info should be the same for 67 and 72.

I would set it up for a better driving condition sim, with some airflow through the condenser.

I've always used the ambient temp as a rough thumbrule for the static hi/low pressure. So 85f should...

Except that when you do your highway speed rip at higher rpm you not only increase coolant and air flow, but you increase heat generated by engine. So is your increase in temps due to coolant flow,...

Respectfully, I don't buy that. More flow is always better heat transfer, whether it's air flow or coolant flow.

Careful! That high flow might cause the coolant to spend less time in the radiator, and make an overheat situation!

Sure. Except the car was a 77 T/A with Swiss cheese floors, and the Drive In was the end of the runway at a community airport. Can't remember what the movie was, but I think the soundtrack was either...

Thanks to all. Window is in, I was even able to put my son to use helping me put it in. It went better than I thought.

I run FiTech with timing control, so it is a similar dealio, but the PI has more resolution. All I get to play with is idle/1100/3000/6000 and 2 different vacuum conditions (WOT and cruise).

Hmm... I think I was getting Bicentennial stickers out of a Cheerios box, and putting them all over my banana seat bike with hi rise handlebars. The stickers looked like the dash of a Trans Am.

I think the date casting is either an L222 or an I222, either of which translates to a late 1972 production, likely a 1973 JA code 2.73 open rear end for a Nova.

Funny enough, I crawled under my...

I would run it with no belts, and see if the noise goes away. If it does, then add the alt belt and see if the noise comes back. If noise is still not present, add the ps belt.

Right now the car sits in his garage, and probably is a little piece of nostalgia for him. I'd rather it be MY nostalgia. This all came to be from an impromptu conversation at work with "hey, what...

I left one natural, and painted the other with silver engine paint. The painted one cleans up, the natural one is a dirty abomination, like a grunge sponge.

I use these, from when they were known as "Crosswind" intakes. Love them. The air gap makes a great place to run wiring and vacuum hoses.
