If he was buying a crank then internal is the way to go. I'd never buy a crank that was external balance. That's just me.

Honestly I don’t enjoy driving it that much. It’s 40-60 miles to town and the nearest shows. To get there in a reasonable amount of time half is 75 MPH roads. That is NOT gonna happen, these were made to putt around town fixing gas meters. 55 MPH is all I want to go in it. I’ll take my cars...

I don't care what it is. It's not gonna stop the flow of oil being upside down.

I got off the rails. If all you are doing is breaking in the cam and looking for leaks on a run stand, just find any flywheel and use it. Doesn't matter if its internal or external. It won't hurt anything for what you are doing. Using that flywheel in the car is bad, but you have an automatic...

That's funny. I see a lot of aftermarket stuff and badging now. "Redneck Edition" is a favorite around here

My friend Maddie bought a first generation Cummins two door dually auto trans with od. Grey. That truck is still on the road looks new with over 500k miles on it. I pulled her 5th wheel with it one time when it was new. Not really impressed but dang it has lasted a long time

He will be fine. It certainly doesn't matter. I was merely clarifying what @Oldmanmopar asked.

"A lot of work" in Mitch-speak is "Pretty much done" for most everyone else

I probably would have by either balancing it internally or another crank. Just personal preference.

I can’t remember, been a while since I played with a Holley, but it might have a small wire clip that attaches to the float arm. It “should” pull the needle out of the seat. The clip might be off. I would want to look at it, if there is something off with the needle and seat it can go the other...

What's you cam lift ?

Chris, funny story. Yrs ago my son had a Ply Reliant wagon. He took an old Power Wagon emblem off a 60’s truck and put it on the back of the wagon in reverse- Wagon. power. An older gentleman told him he hadn’t ever heard of that model

Looks like she's gonna end up at about 9.2:1 cr, 1.88" 596 heads, 600 AFB, and at least a Performer intake, if not one a bit better. Consensus seems to be 105° (4° adv), so that's where it's going. I've always considered this a spare motor, while others get built. It may find it's way into...

Positive vale seals, do you remember which ones, no machining right ?

For something that stock? Maybe I need to go back and read the OP.I didn't think this was ever going to see the track.

It doesn't matter. What you have is fine. I wouldn't have converted your crank to internal balance either. It is very cost ineffective for what you are doing. If you did want to do that (keeping in mind external balancing is not my favorite thing) you'd need to get a new damper. You can buy a...

I use the blue on those bolts. 65

A cam that sounds great and provides good power Hughes Whiplash Designed specifically designed for low CR smog engines

The title of the thread suggested that he wanted some input as well "Hood scoop too big?".....Or at least that's the way I read it.

Agree... but there's something to be said for honoring your word. At least give the person a chance to respond.

Yes that’s what I was getting at. So it won’t take away a measurable difference in seat. I will try to find instructions on the hood. I am putting in hood pins. Thanks everyone. I think I will remove the 1” spacer it’s pretty close if not up against hood now when fully shut. There is a witness...

I actually tried that last night. I think it’s ok now but have to check float height and see! Thanks!

looks like instead of a flapper valve they use a spring loaded check valve

Lightly tap the adjuster. See if the needle is stuck, but it is no big deal to get in there. Get a set of new gaskets, the re-useable ones. I used to just pull the carb off and turn it upside down over a tray. Easier to play with it on the bench.

That's a small block Chevy cap.

No car deal is done till cash swaps hands...

Well with one clocking tab on the cap and two slots on the dizzy it does fit when reversed but with only one tab it’s not great still has some play after lock down. Better but not great. I couldn’t reference this cap and I am thinking it’s not correct since MSD doesn’t seem to sell one for the...

Whomever started the "Paint your truck bedliner" and "Stupid-huge low profile chrome wheels" on trucks needs to just be shaken like a rattle can. Ugh...

Why not just use the 440 Source E core coil that distributor needs anyway? Plug and play.
