Silliness loves company, I guess! :lol:

The shafts could have drained back, so it needs to fill the shafts again. No downside to just spinning the oil pump and just turn the crank 5 degrees at a time, look for oil. Give it a second each time. Repeat. Remember you need two full crank revolutions.

That's hilarious...as I have always wanted to do a similar thing. I thought I was the only idiot who would want do something so silly...

Liquid bleach as a budget item! Great story, thanks!

In my truck, 87. In Vixen my Valiant, 92 or 93. I always get it from the same place and try to use the same pump facing the same direction.

Oh, God! I just remembered... Back in High School when I had my first '69 Mustang, I took some windshield washer squirters from an old Ford van (they stood "proud" of the sheetmetal about an inch or so), and I mounted them on the vertical sheetmetal lip formed by the inner and outer rear...

I would guess for any given bore size and rpm ain't really a factor like 9-12 thousands rpms is no big deal I'm sure there's will be a point were the increase frictional hp loss will cost more than any displacement of air gain through stroke where that is? I remember an 413/426 Max Wedge super...

Unreal that Gliddens car was only 314 inches..

Absolutely, just like anything else.

I can see his concern, but I don't think these engineers who design this stuff are that dumb. Look at the Chevy small block 400. 1.48:1 ratio. They run fine.

I use alcohol free from Maverick gas stations. The engine was rebuilt in the 80s and may or may not have replacement valve seats. I'm not too worried about the lack of lead in the fuel.

We live in a tiny 600 population town with quite a few gearheads. The lady that owns the local watering hole has a large asphalt parking lot. She is up for anything that brings business to the small town bar. A few years ago we had a bleach burnout night which was tolerated for a while until the...

but builders will have their preference, and they'll speak to it :)

Yes. 200W No. It has either high level (speaker wires) or low level (RCA cables) and I'm using the RCA cables. Yes. I have it on the "rear" channels of the head unit.

I had one of the best engine builders I ever knew, back in my late teens/early twenties, warn me on creating a "shove" into the wall. Now we see massive stroker kits

:rofl::rofl:

That's what he said. One man show. We all need to buy from him.

You might be right Dave..

He is a good dude. The way I understand it is he does everything including packaging and shipping. He’s a busy man.

You won't reach that point, because nobody was stupid enough to design an engine like that.

Best "for what"? I think that's splittin hairs. Short rods are good if you want piston speed up. Long rods are good if you want piston speed down. It all depends on what you're doin.

Love it! We live in a neighborhood the encircles a small wetland/swamp/pond, depending on how much rain we've gotten recently, and since it's "just us" who goes in there, it's pretty quiet. Several of the neighbor kids have go-carts and/or minibikes, and on most weekends they can be seen...

Also, at what point does the stroke shove the piston into the cylinder wall instead of up the wall?

add some bleach just for xtra fun for the new neighbors..LOL

Ratio is what I meant.

The small block mopars have some of the best rod ratio compared to the other brands. Must be a place a builder would love it to be.

Ratio or angle ?

Wow! You can tell, but man he looks good.

Whatever you got.
