That's a really nice plant for over there. They all look like they know exactly what they're doing, too. I bet even with the lack of personal safety items, they still have a low accident rate. Those little vehicles are cool, too. Those would be the perfect thing for over here in large cities...

Hey, thats learning. Its ok to figure the weakest parts :)

Suppose an update here won’t hurt. Almost bare block on a stand? Yep. I hurt it. Not sure how bad, but it blue smokes good out the fender exit, can’t even light the turbo off foot braking it anymore, coolant is black and it misses pretty bad. Roll the coals to it and it’ll run half decent for a...

Congrats, you locked the championship

It definitely something that happens. I use my phone for FABO a lot and between my grammar, small keyboard, and the stupid autocorrect I’ll send one that makes no sense sometimes. I “try” to read every submission one more time before posting.

Looks like there maybe a points shakeup going into the last race: https://gmauthority.com/blog/2024/11/nascar-chevy-teams-being-investigated-for-race-manipulation/

i know that valve springs and dampners wear metal, into engine, i installed pot holder magnets in drainback hole in heads, takes 7 in each head, i no longer have metal in the pan, it cured the problem. when i pull covers off, they are covered with metal, pull and clean them. simple fix. just...

We used 1200 then 1500 then 2000 then 2500 then finished up with 3000 (all by hand with soft sanding blocks). Then buffed with the 3M 3 step polishing process. Step 1 has a white label on the compound bottle, and you use the white 3M foam pad. Step 2 has a black label on the compound bottle, and...

Also the oil light and fasten seat belt lights up

If you can pull a valve cover, you can pull an engine. Don't be ridiculous. These cars are OLD and SIMPLE. Get you a factory service manual and READ it cover to cover. You'll see how easy it is. Didn't you learn to read and write? Wasn't that over your head before you learned?

Thank you for your help.

Those numbers are extremely even and strong for the age of that engine. There's no way in hades I'd rebuild it. I'd reseal it like @toolmanmike said and drive it.

Yep, post pics of valve train here in this post to keep it I would be leery of driving it until the issue is resolved, just to be safe.

This theft earlier this year in SoCal does not list a 340 convertible. But lists 68 convertibles. This conv has pink going back to 2005. So doesn’t seem related Stolen A-Bodies From CA High Desert

Hey guys, looking for some carburetor parts for my 4611. Who has any of the following??? 4611 carb tag 4 speed linkage stud choke assembly '45' correct carb (air cleaner) stud Let me know what you got please!

Yes title has wrong vin BH27P8B198220 That tells me this title was made up (2005?) after the dash VIN was missing and there was nothing in system for it nor person that took it to DMV had any past paperwork on it. Like no pink slip. I don’t see dual exhaust cutouts in the rear valance. Would...

No I won’t be pulling motor . WAY beyond my capabilities. Valve covers ? -yes - pics etc- I like your way of thinking. I actually have a good set of Valve cover gaskets here —- was gonna go after cleaning bulkhead connectors soon and need to remove drivers side anyway for access. I’ll pull...

:thumbsup:

Very cool story, Stan! Thanks for sharing!

273 head gaskets are no longer available, you will have to use 318 ones or have Cometic make custom ones..$$$$

I understand. I forget sometimes other people actually have lives. lol

Hey Rusty, I’ve been lurking! Just busy with life outside of car stuff unfortunately. Still plugging away here and there on the valiant when I can.

Do you plan on removing engine to take to rebuilder? If so remove the valve covers and take pics. Lots of knowledgable people that can help you. There are nuances to these engines, make sure this engine rebuilder is knowledgable on mopars. Maybe post a thread looking for someone in Spokane area...

Mike, that was very generous of you.
