Wipers
This is a little hard to explain so bear with me. I have reproduction wiper arms and trico blades. I don’t think the repro arms have enough tension to keep them against the windshield. The reason I say this is driving in the rain with the wiper moving down it does not move very much water down towards the cowl but then on the upswing it wipes fairly well. Anybody run into this? I drive this car in the rain sometimes so maximum efficiency would be good.

Repo parts are not even close to originals, all fall short

Can't help with your wiper issue but will say if not already done, apply RainX to your windshield and it will do wonders for your visibility.

I put new springs on my old arms and that seemed to help. Maybe the same for the repos?
