Hello All, Looking for a real nice, inside and out, 63-64 Fury hood. I am going to use it to make a mold for a carbon fiber reproduction. The closer to 47803 the better, but long distance isn't a deal breaker, but anything short of real nice is. Please PM me details and photos. If you'r not a...

I ordered a Jesel front drive combo. I think it's going to take a few days to get over the sticker shock. Tom

Several sets still available. Tom

Take it for what it's worth. Here's what ChatGPT had to say on the matter when I uploaded the image. "The two “missing” holes are not a defect, but a deliberate engineering decision to balance structural strength, manufacturing efficiency, and valve stem placement. These kinds of asymmetries...

That is correct. I just happen to have a new set in the box that I took a look at. Oil band or not I've used these lifters in many engines, and I've never had any issues with them. 7200 rpms on the 526" engine with a 282/282 @ .050" .672" solid roller.I always inspect them annually and cycle...

I personally don't think needle roller bearings are a problem so long as you have positive oil pressure, and have the valve train in the correct geometry. A lot of needle bearing failures are the result of poor preparations such as incorrect valve spring pressure, poor oiling, and bad geometry...

What kind of RPM do you run? I know it's for miles. Valve spring pressure? Tom

I have ran Comp Cams 829-16 lifters with no restriction on the street/ strip for over 35 years. I have also only ever bushed the bores on two race engines. There is no need for restrictors and if you just won't to do something bushing the lifter bores is where to spend the money. Tom

That because the cost of making dies in America is so cost prohibitive. Not all, but most American company have dies made in China because they are a 1/3 of the cost. It's really sad, but most people honestly couldn't afford a quarter panel made in America if anyone made them. I am really...

The circular enclosures on each end contain two 7-ton flywheels. The two vertical cylinders on top contain air bladders that control the upward motion. Twin multi disc brakes on the inside of each end. You can hear the air bladders at work in the pipe bending video. However if you let off the...
