So I was able to find a 108-9 dated Kelsey Hayes brake valve with the intent on rebuilding it for my car. This is the valve that mounts on the drivers side frame rail under the door. I was able to get it apart,and completely disassembled. In doing so, I had to destroy the c-clip to get it apart. So I ordered 2 repro valves, both made by OER. One came from Summit, the other from Classic Industries. My plan was to use the new internals for the rebuild of my KH unit. I also got 2 seal kits from Muscle Car Research. Upon getting one of the new OER valves on Friday, I took it apart to harvest its internals. I discovered that the valve only contained 3 parts, the spring, the aluminum tube and its corresponding seal. No outer seal, c-clip or metal washer. I then received the second valve today and it only had the same 3 parts inside. Has anyone taken one of these valves apart to use the internals to rebuild their assembly line valve? Im thinking that these OER units are basically useless as they dont have the parts that the KH units do. Here is a pic of what was inside the OER ones.

December 11, 2025, 02:13:00 PM
Has anyone seen another number stamped next the the "US" on the 69 master cylinder? This particular one was cast on the 147th day. Looks like it reads "55"

Does anyone know what the torque value is for the exhaust flange nuts for BB car with stock manifolds? Installing a new system and would like proper value for the stud nuts.

Restoration / Bracket Mount ID

I was under the car looking up above the axle near fuel tank and noticed this tab on the floor / trunk pan on passenger side. Any idea what this would be for? Looks factory to me but nothing is attached to it.. Car has chambered on in now.. maybe it was anchor point for different type RPO exhaust?

Restoration / Shock plate parking brake mounting
November 25, 2025, 01:01:36 PM
Was installing the parking brake retainer brackets on the previously installed shock plates. PO never installed the parking brake brackets. Passenger side went on no problem. Drivers side.. well the rolled lip of the shock plate is too high so cable bracket doesnt sit flush. Getting confused on orientation of the plate to determine if the PO put a passenger side shock plate on the drivers side. Is that even possible?

Originality / 1969 BB Heat Riser
November 17, 2025, 10:10:05 PM
Seems to be little information on this. Looking for a part or casting number for assembly line riser or service replacement part number. Looked in AIM and it shows one for SB but diagram for BB doesnt show one. Im sure BB were fitted with them regardless of the engine or exhaust RPO..
Thanks in advance

I had some electrical gremlins with the horn / key buzzer while installing the tilt column but have since figured it out.. I think. I was able to get hands on a 1969 tilt column.. dated and has the square shaped perch where "lock" is cast. Anyways, horn and key buzzer are now working. I wanted to confirm a funtion of the system as I have never done this prior to the installation. I would like to know what happens when:

1) Key is fully inserted into ignition
2) Door is open and buzzer is activley buzzing

What do you hear when you try to blow the horns while door is open and buzzer is buzzing?

Restoration / Steering Column Harness Wire ID
June 08, 2025, 08:35:45 PM
Replaced my original 69 floor shift non tilt with 69 tilt, Have an issue when I plug in the black harness and insert ignition key, horn activates. Basically the horn is operating my key reminder / door open buzzer. Im looking to identify what the last 4 wires in the column plug do. This pic is from the non tilt colum which worked fine.

Restoration / Holley 4346 Linkage
May 18, 2025, 07:32:09 AM
I finally sourced a dated 4346 to replace my service 4346 on a 69 L78 motor. I want to verify which hole to use on the carb linkage for throttle rod connection. It became obviuos that it wouldnt go where the large rubber grommet is located. Not enough of the rod end protruded through to other side to install the C-clip. Circled hole is where I have it now.
