Looking for the plastic glove box bezel for a 71 duster rally dash. Driver quality, and not the barracuda version....thanks!

It's not like hes ever built ANY engine that would even NEED subframe connectors.

I dont know but he DID say he was gonna work up a estimate to rebuild the engine for his customer.

All I know is it's pretty disheartening to realize people make money doing shoddy work and showing it on YouTube to make money. It's a slap in the face of every PROFESSIONAL who does this for a living, providing real quality.

And he put factory valve covers on it, which will never clear the indy rockers, to test his pcv theory, when all he had to do was plug the damn pcv hose. Moron

I called nick a hack builder a few years ago, lots of people were offended. Here is definitive proof. His diagnostic abilities are piss poor. His inability to diagnose allowed him to destroy this poor customers engine. And now hes going to give him a quote to rebuild it. What a ******* clown

That's a good question, but the caps wont be any problem on this build, as it is pretty mild.

A minor update, I believe I might use a set of the new AFR heads on this build rather than the speedmasters. Got a couple sets here, and would be run strictly out of the box.

Yes they were well short of there posted numbers, but it's not real as accurate comparing between different benches.

I just built a 408 with a pair of AFRs, and they didn't get anywhere near that on my bench.

I would kind of expect a simular response if we went on a Camaro forum and asked about hopping up a 307 because we cant afford a 350 block. But hey, I'll build ANYTHING if I'm getting paid!

The new AFRs are a good option also, summit has some currently

They are supposed to be cast here, but the casting quality and material quality seems WORSE than any of the various china heads I have done recently.

Any of the china heads would be fine, provided you have a shop check/assemble them with good parts.

Cool! One thing to keep in mind, if your going to try to get quench with a oem open chamber head, is its EXTREMELY likely you will need to machine the chambers. Lots of times the depths vary cylinder to cylinder, and sometimes sloped.
