    Intake Coolant Crossover

    anyone ever drilled and tapped their intake in the rear where the intake covers the rear cooling ports in the head? then routed the ports via tubes to the thermostat boss, under the stat itself? My thoughts are ive seen it done on a couple bowtie engines in sand-dragsters that a couple of my...

    Center link rubbing oil pan

    2 things, I had to dimple the pan on the drivers side to clear my 318 in my 66. engine is from an 87 gran fury highway patrol car. second, when I did my suspension swap I pulled a durp-a-durr move and installed the drag-link backwards, and it rubbed the par on the bottom like crazy. the angle to...

    thats awesome!!! i took an all-nighter road trip, 550 miles, when i had my 7.25 sure grip with 2.94's and 185-35-13's and got 18.4 as well. recently, after my suspension swap, with an 8.25 with 3.55's and 225-60-r15's i pulled 20.3 on a 600 mile round trip. both times were doing around 60 mph. i...

    Optimizing a Holley 4175

    I run the same carb on my 318, and ran it on my 360 in my old D100. all I can say is get the nylon bowl screw washers, and blue reusable gaskets. you will be taking this apart more than you want to. those 2 things will allow you to and be hassle free. I run a 6.5 single stage power valve in the...

    Anyone heard from Grumpuscreature?

    Manual Steering Box Lube

    I drilled and tapped the 1/4 npt fill plug for a grease fitting. gave er about 15 pumps and called it good. made the mistake of dumping in 90 wt at the time of my v8 swap and I had a pile of goo oozing out of the pitman shaft (it probably needs rebuilt but I just don't want to right now) so it...

    Reluctor Phasing

    i agree on that part. whats troubling to me though, is i have four extra main shaft assemblys from a 74, 76, 79, and 87 smallblock distributors, and not a single one is the same clocking position for the reluctor roll pin to rotor clocking slot. all of them were close, yes, but none of them were...

    Reluctor Phasing

    i seriously dig the info here. i owe all of you many thanks, and as of now, i believe i have it figured out. i received my corrected reluctor from rick ehrenberg today in the mail, and adjusted the rotor tip with the "15 degrees before the tip" pin slot. effectively advancing the signal to fire...

    Reluctor Phasing

    10-4. as of right now, the roll pin is in the corresponding slot to the correct arrow with the 2 lines, as it was in the beginning. your aforementioned order of switching the wires, observing that the spark pattern improved, and setting the timing last, thats exactly what i did. BUT, i had to...

    Reluctor Phasing

    one of my first threads on this amazing forum was about an intermittent exhaust "poof" sound from the drivers side exhaust on deccel, and very sluggish take off under hard acceleration. Ive had this annoyance since i swapped a V8 into my early-A. i had many awesome tips and things recommended to...

    E3 plugs

    three words to sum it up, inconsistent spark pattern. There is no spark control with these things, they scatter the spark pattern all over hell and beyond making it impossible for a flame kernel to burn the same everytime it fires. bosch platinum 4's, and 2's do the same. Working at NAPA, I flat...
