I take a lot of abuse from you clowns, but I'm drawing the line at being called lazy and stupid.

The avanti blew the doors off of the Corvettes of the day, check it out

I hear that.

Nice picture

Your funny

Yup

75 miles west of Illinois

Someone mentioned that since I didn't know about some water that's used in bottling companies and since I didn't know they said that I must have just crawled from under a rock. So I thought that I would mention something about transformers. As far as tap water that's all I used for years and I...

Not hardly. Drilling a 1/8" hole in the thermostat has been around for years.

What oil is used in pole mount transformers?

I always drill a small hole in the thermostat to help cooling flow

K. If that's what you feel you need to do.

When I made that comment I was only kidding, don't blow a gasket over it

I doubt that you blasted passed it as it's as quick as lightning.

No, I was just asking about the 360'S . I knew that eventually it would start things up again. I'm thinking that there are a couple of guys who are against anyone asking any questions unless they already own the car / engine that they inquire about.

Don't mean to be rude here but why do you think that they came out with 50/50 antifreeze?

ahhh common sense according to Dan The Man. You wouldn't believe the number of people that don't know what I said about the wind chill factor and driving into the cold. Would it bother you that much to give me a little credit for a change?

I understand that. I was on a different forum years ago and they talked heavily about using water at temperature for boring and honing blocks and they found no real difference in horsepower or ring sealing or longevity, but I don't know this as fact nor do I have any experience with it. But it...

...never heard of osmosis water till now. I've always used regular water and never had any issues with my cooling system's. I mix my antifreeze for -40*- -50* below zero. I always tell people that you have to figure in the wond chill factor and driving into the cold. I use only Prestone...

Once it's past 10:00 pm on a week day it's time to shut things down and no later than midnight on the weekends. I know first hand what it's like when someone revs up their car or boat after 10pm on a week day, it's hard for those who have to get up in the morning to get sleep with someone doing...

I asked the above question for learning purposes only, not meaning to sound sarcastic

Would you check, set ring end gaps with the torque plates and water too?

I ask questions too just because I'm interested in something.

With different compression ratios being brought up, what would be a good dynamic compression ratio for the 360 with a 4 barrel carburetor? It will be a daily driver and will need to be pump gas friendly. Cam, I don't know how to match that with the dynamic compression ratio.

Do you remember the specs for the cam that you used?

My bad I meant the 1974 360

I've goole for this information and have had no luck. What's the horsepower and torque for the 1973 360 high performance?

About a hour and a half, it's not a bad drive at all. They are only calling for 20% chance of rain so I don't look for it to rain. I'm sure that there will be a car or 2 for sale

Has this engine ever ran before? Was it just recently overhauled? We've had engines sit for years and we didn't have any trouble getting the system to oil. Was the engine protected from dirt, dust,grime during it's 5 years of not being used? I think that I would release the rockers so that the...

I've wondered about that but was afraid to ask
