You ain’t teaching me a thing I promise. I don’t care how many engines you’ve opened, you can’t tell if a bearing has .0025 or .0035 clearance without measuring it. And it’s a fool’s errand to assemble (cause you ain’t building) engines that way and expect them to live. Maybe at the 180hp levels you’re screwin together, stuff like that flys but not in my neighborhood.
Knowing dear ol’GeorgeJets there, trust me he ain’t schooling, he’s just sayin and your right, if it’s a young low HP engine with bolt on parts and a small cam, that’s one thing. Closer to what George is talking about.
Considering the title of the thread…..
And what’s going on so far….
I still do little mini hop ups like that. They are fun. Not really fast, but drive well and are enjoyable with its upgraded power. I’m doing this on my ‘79 Magnum now.
Next month I should be down at the track dicking around with the car down the 1/4 seeing what I can ring out. Then I have a cam change just to see what it does. No big fan fair. Just toying around with something until I get a few other things squared away.
