Nice edit job on my quote.

Yeah. Haha! If I recall correctly the strings were pretty taught when they were attached between the heads on those machines so unless they were doing alignments in gale force winds they wouldn’t be moving too much.

I’ll simply just add this for the benefit of the OP, as to not get dragged into the mess of much of what has been put out here so far. My advice would be to find a reliable A/F or dual band O2 sensor and gauge to install and do some research into the ACTUAL way O2 and A/F sensors REALLY work, to...

The latest machines don’t clamp onto the edge of the rims anymore but instead use hooks that hold onto the tire on the tread and then you attach them @ 9-3 then roll the car forward to do the compensation. Problem is if the wheels tuck into the wheel wells the clamp hooks will hit the body...

And there you have it… 3 plus pages worth of a pissing contest chock full of more than enough misinformation to make you head hurt.

That’s where your money gets sucked into. Blocking it off does no good. It has mystical powers.

LOL! I got what you meant. But imagine a melting blob of aluminum at the end of a 10 second pass. Lol!

Important things to note here regarding alignments in general. Always set CASTER 1st then Camber 2nd and lastly Toe. CASTER - CAMBER - TOE. Because Caster affects Camber and Camber affects Toe. Adjust out of order and you can screw it up real fast. If you’re going to do it yourself then...

WOWW! She certainly is! Maybe even hotter!

Brian, As pretty much everyone has said before I’m saddened to see and hear this happened to you. I followed your build and was impressed with your work. I hope you find another to build your way again and that you can enjoy as much or more as this one. Having something stolen is a sickening...

The ram effect of the rushing air flow.

My comment was regarding the amount of load caused by the fan. If it draws “30 HP” on one motor it’s going to draw 30 hp on another because of the amount of work it takes to turn the fan stays consistent.

Thexton makes a couple of different kits varying in price and the amount of sizes it covers. The more expensive kit comes with check valves in the plastic lines to prevent sucking air back in. Amazon carries them.

Jim, have you tried YouTube to see if they have any videos that show how to reset it manually? Most manufacturers have a method to do a manual reset without the scan tool. They don’t always like to make it known but it’s there. I’m a professional tech and I look on there sometimes when I can’t...

Horsepower is horsepower no matter what motor it’s on. I don’t believe a fan is going to draw anywhere near 30 hp, but whatever it draws it would be the same on whatever engine you have it on.

Chuck Norris uses MY pic for his avatar!

It is kind of a dick move isn’t it?

It’s all a big yoke until somebody gets hurt! :rofl: Sorry, I couldn’t resist.

You can pull the shaft all the way out on a PG.

Thank you!

Yeah I did. The one with the spacer on it? Wasn’t sure if it was an adapter. Would you happen to have a P/N for that manifold. **Never mind, another member posted it.

I’ve looked around for an M1 for a low deck and have never been able to find a listing for a 4500 flange. Did they make a low deck 4500?

Now that’s what I like to hear! Thanks Jim. I’m always impressed with your builds.

Has anybody done testing for a low deck intake for a 4500 carb? I know there’s not much to choose from but I was wondering what would work best for say 7000 rpm range? Would a spacer/ adapter with the TF 4150 work well?

They won’t vent nearly fast enough to prevent crankcase pressure from building up. Again, they’re not intended to vent gases out, just to let air in. If you’re referring to the old engines, pre-PCV, they had a draft tube that ran down along the engine low enough to catch the air passing by the...

Make sure you have some sort of crankcase evacuation system on it or you will chase leaks forever! You need something to create negative pressure in the crankcase. I. E. A PCV valve, vacuum pump or header type of evacuation system. If you’re just running breathers it’s not enough. Breathers are...

Check out Modern Cylinder Heads or look up member IQ52- Jim LaRoy on this site. He’s very knowledgeable and capable.

Pardon my ignorance, but what is the difference between the 2 speed and 3 speed linkages?

Great job Brian! I'm sure you're pleased. Very happy for you!

Sounds like s bad connection with the wire at the sending unit.
