GOOD STUFF.

"Aluminum" gets a bad rap. nothing wrong with aluminum rockers if they are quality pieces. 7075 T6 grade would be the premium pieces I have run both needle bearing and bushed with success on other applications, the needle bearing units MUST be on a matching hardened shaft to work and last properly.

Always confirm TDC mark using the bump stop method. same as degreeing a cam.

A while back while wandering the pits before an IHRA pro stock event early in the AM i had the opportunity to speak with Tony Jones who was the carb guy for the Goforth team. I asked him about his split dominators sitting on the plywood spacers. he told me it was the best insulator he had...

Man thats a nice power curve.

Thats a good idea! the price is 50 cheaper through them as well

Getting started on my Scamp, I'm going to do a full floor pan. who has the best price , and are there any prefered ABO vendors with a discount?

MY.02: Stock rods with new bolts. if you can get a light weight aftermarket piston and then balance the assembly (this is the money you would have spent on aftermarket rods) you are way ahead. the lighter piston takes a huge amount of load off the rod, Plus Mopar rods were very good pieces.

I got a "free" Motorhome with a premium package 413 ( industrial top end ) gave it to a friend who was doing vintage stock car stuff. he switched the top dress over to regular automotive and it is a sweet running big block . FWIW it weighrd in at a tick over 1k lbs with the industrial parts on it!

Not to de rail a thread , but the size of the displacement would help negate the negitive effect of that cam.

If you do your math correctly with master cyl displacement and pedal ratio , manual brakes will stop it fine. There are several on line calculators to help. 180 MPH road coarse cars do not use power assist.

Get a real temp reading.. And I'll be that guy , please be careful, we had an upper rad hose blow off an overheated car my dad and I worked on ( without a proper temp gauge) and it cooked him from the waist up like a lobster.

Ive had good luck with Cronatron NI rod for cast repair, it doesn't weld great out of position but that's not an issue in this case. or braze it , easy peasy either way , not the end of the world.

Tom, are these available as a replacement rod for the stack 440 LY rod? (Chry rod journal)

Zolatone may get you the same effect, its also tougher than woodpecker lips

My 74 Scamp need a pan, I'll be doing it myself, question is who has the correct gauge material at a reasonable price? will at least do the entire drivers side, may do a complete pan, I need to pull the carpet and decide.

Interesting no-one is mentioning Hughes

Just leave a plug wire off...its cheaper :lol:

where is it located?

...and I continue to learn from this site

i'm in!

Then do a 20 minute 2000 rpm break in ? Yes.

...... unless all the oil company’s are all leaving a component out?? OIL. I prefer to run a high zinc oil, I have many flat tappet engines in my yard, I run either a diesel oil (15/40 Rotella) plus half a bottle of Lucas zinc additive, or VR-1 Valvoline oil (high zinc) if I can get it. I...

Ive run Koni with great satisfaction

The only way I thought of doing a front steer rack conversion was to replace the lower ball joint setup / add a corrected steering arm to get the Ackerman right. a fabricated arm with a replaceable ball joint , yada , yada yada, its just not worth it, these cars, when properly setup are amazing...

Cheap rear end option: 8.8 with discs from a ford, available with 4:10 and limited slip. could always look for a 9" from an old stock car too. I got lucky and scored an A body 8-3/4 for 400.00... you dont see them any more

Is anyone running a front engine plate or are all you guys on conversion mounts?
