The heads on this engine didn’t have the casting numbers visible. It has been awhile since I’ve paid attention to casting numbers on heads so i am out of practice. I looked at another set of heads I had in the shed. FABO member @mopowers Made me a deal on them a couple of years back They have...

Good. So that means when I get my CR sorted, I'll be back to talk more about how much I should bump the cam forward. However it works, I'll shoot for at least 9:1, or more if that's how the parts work out. And acquire an adjustable timing chain set, as this one's not.

it's survivorship bias. :poke: also you old farts can't remember what you had for breakfast let alone fiddy years ago! :p (i keed, i keed)

Sorry man, the Navy calls. I ordered up some new slicks, a new driveshaft speed sensor and got some other things in the works for the winter. Plan currently is the Coastal VA auto show in November and then Dig or Die on the back half of Rockingham December 6-7 to do some no prep racing with...

I don't think it'll be "that bad". I recollect a LOT of us ran big hydraulic cams straight up in low compression motors when we were kids and didn't know any better. They sounded great in the high school parkin lot. They pulled good too startin about 4k. LOL

50/50 Drag Shocks (rear, slightly used) $30 or BO Buyer pays the ride...

If you REALLY want a first hand understanding, here's what you do. With the engine assembled and timing cover off. Rig up some sort of starter mount. A manual bellhousing with a flywheel will work. Degree the cam straight up at 109. That's even with the lobe center. Now, get a compression gauge...

iffin' you're gonna run that cam, i'd advance it as suggested. but as others have noted with that combo: low compression, blah stall, no gear and heavy car-- you've got a recipe for dog water. though, it'd probably run pretty good at highway speed. there's nothing inherently wrong with that...

Stupid broads. If you’re looking at them too much, they complain. If you pay them no attention they complain or think you’re gay. Here is an indisputable truth: The likelihood of them being offended is directly proportional to how attractive the man is. Old, ugly or short? Harassment. Good...

Moroso. Blue rubber(not cheap, disintegrating rubber) with a steel core. Pricey but worth every penny. Last you for longer than ya got left! Unless you over torque them.

The electrical connectors where the lockup and OD wires hook up aren't even close to being the same, and there are probably internal differences also. @Duster346 has probably built more of them than the rest of us have ever seen, so he is a good guy to listen to...

Not a rely bad storm but Frank might get some hail.

Chevy did. Look up "Cross Fire Injection". Might give you some ideas.

Those are what I just bought so that is good to hear.

I love watching storms also. Good to hear all is good by you

I enjoy watching a good storm when it doesn't dump on me. That green spot is not good and almost into Canada. Picture is taken looking to the North East.

Hey who's black Duster is a couple cars down?

Castrol super clean and hot pressure washer works wonders Slant 6? SB BB

I remember that in a Magazine pretty trick.

Ethan, It’s not a dumb post or question. If you have access to a good pressure washer like a heated one, clean it the best you can. Even a car wash will work just not as well. Spray it down with a degreaser first. Protect the items you don’t want painted and go for it. It will most likely...

Mounted on the down-bar. Digital, cause I only need it to verify idle. Who makes black clamps??

Come help me find this squeak.

:rofl:

I’ve got a few probably E body lengths. All seat belt bolts are 7/16 UNF as far as I know.
