I have an '84. It had michelins on it when purchased. I forget the size...but I discovered that my speedo was 10% faster than actual speed. After some calculations I switched to 225/70R15 (Comp T/A) rear and 225/60R15 front (because 225/70 rubbed the front inner fender well on strong cornering) It is now time to replace them and I am looking at 205/75R15 as they are closest in radius and will make tire rotation easier.

Thanks for the pictures Leo B. I do not have anywhere near the room you show berween the valve cover and shield. Looks like I need to play with the mounts.

AAAGhhh. I have the wrong ones on there anyway. I have the brackets, but there are no rubber cushions on them, just bolts. I noticed that while looking at the parts manual page above. Does anyone have a used pair that they would like to sell? I know I can get them from the vendors but...

I own a radio from a Studebaker Hawk. Model AC 3216. Will this fit in a 63 Avanti? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Mark

63 Avanti Installing Transmission Mounts
John Brissette replied to Fourward's topic in 1963-64 Avanti
Whoever you spoke with is correct. It needs to be there.In my 51 years of owning my Avanti, I've read many times about this spacer being left out and "things" not lining up and functioning correctly. JB -

Steve-Avanti started following Dodgy Camshaft?

I have that spacer, one of the suppliers mentioned it and why it goes there. To clear some part or tilt the engine because of some part, I forget why. Sorry.

63 Avanti Installing Transmission Mounts

Take note of the parts list above...............527974. It is a spacer that has been left off of many transmission installations. -
Oh, I'll check that too. Thanks.

Thank you! Gotta get them off and turn em around.

From memory both should face inward or downward and hug the bellhousing.

Got the engine in the car!!! 3 hours with a helper. Not too bad. I have a problem with the transmission mounts on the crossmember. I think I have the passenger mount installed backwards? It is an L shape. I have the leg of the L pointed outboard. Should this point inboard? How about the driver's side? I have it outboard and loosely connected to the crossmember.

When my A II starts getting warm, I pop the hood, driving....... That's not a good idea

Thank yo, I know it's involves some work to get the inside trim panel off, I was hoping it was not attached with nuts,,,
-
It's attached with three pal nuts.
-
How is this chrome trim attached behind the rear quarter windows, does it have fasteners from behind or just pushed into retaining clips?,,
