okay, that's what i thought. but not as drastic as that. it was a long, long time ago and the guy was calling it a sunoco cowl hood. and i didn't know if that was a localized term or not. his accent and speech pattern also made it difficult to understand just what in the world he was talking...

i *think* it's similar to a cowl induction hood but not as "sharp" and angular. like smaller and more 'bubble' look?

interesting...

the ones i've had apart were all full cylinder/shell type. *squints* you shore you ain't talking 'bout some of dem FE lifters? ;D p.s. sorry for junking up your thread. sean is an awesome dude with tremendous talent!

i know that the poly's are shorter than LA's but beyond that i don't have a bunch of granular knowledge on them. question: doesn't the barbell bleed off oil pressure in a V8?

well slap my *** and color me shocked. i stand corrected.

no, slants have their own flavor

a little lube and some taps with a smol hammer usually does the trick. i have to ask, though, you've got the steering column loose so that it can slide up and off the box correct?

it looks like most builders list similar spec competition units in the 3K range so i'd use that as a starting point. that thing seems like it's le boeuf which kinda takes most of the unwashed masses out of the market, leaving a more serious crowd-- which could be a good thing, or a bad...

that's the one you wanna take to the dance!

these are about the best aftermarket non-bling-y brackets that kinda sorta keep everything in the stock location. https://www.bouchillonperformance.com/products-aircon-compressor-brackets should clear errybody without too much fuss. i loves me some performer on 318's and mild 360's. it's...

i wouldn't buy anything from hughes that wasn't in stock or that i could cancel an order for and get a refund. i would put exactly zero-point-zero into that manifold and buy anything else (*cough* air gap *cough*) yeah you could put some shine on that diamond, but with the skrilla you drop...

if you liked the 500, why would you go 8 on ostensibly the same but smaller motor? i'd stay 650(ish) with that set up.

i don't think any of the aftermarkets have the offset t-stat besides the performer. and i know that the performer is the only one that's got the provisions to mount the compressor bracketry. with an aftermarket bracket and the shorty compressor the weiand twins fit no problems.

woof, autofright. no thanks. i'd go 3310 with some downlegs... or something more "modern" if i was shopping. the avs2 will be perfectly cromulent if you wanna party with carterbrock. unless you're rock crawling i wouldn't really start to worry about inclines. anyway, think about what you're...

i think the exciting bit of the party is right there at 4 and change, and that bit from 45 to five is just a few drunk chicks dancing by themselves in the kitchen to a song that only they know till somebody pukes at 52 and is asked to leave.

it probably doesn't fall off a cliff straight away but plateaus till like 5, mayyybe 52 and then just stops making power. the 650 is probably great for fuel mileage and i'd bet it's super crisp throttle wise around town, but that's not doing you any favors.

the short answer is probably a very negligible power difference. the longer answer is more of where is that +2 coming from. most [split pattern] cams are ground on different angles for the intake and exhaust and the LSA is expressed as the average between them, so a "108" could be a 106 intake...

ohh! looks like you'll be able to change the radio in 1st & 3rd!

i think classic or PG may have them as well

as evidenced by the rods... they have a welder so no big deal, right?

nah, they's home made. somebody saw a ramrod shifter and said: i can do that! minus the whole shifter part.

dig them crazy rods!

the upper (vin) stamping looks sloppy. bigger pic will tell if it's a body. shifter location/tail shaft

833 from december 1971 ETA: 046 would be the 46th unit built that day the #'s on there look a mess

yes. i'm wracking my brain right now, because i want to say there's *some* aftermarket headgaskets that inhibit this but i'm coming up empty. but that's something you'd realize straight away.

fame, clout, two sticky nickles you can rub together and make a sticky dime and fancy new overalls! and when the show's on hiatus and you're back home, everywhere you roll up into you can start off the conversation with: maybe ya done saw me on the tee-vee!

to add: just because you have a fender tag, doesn't mean that it's from that car. the SO number should be stamped on the radiator support and match the tag. that would indicate the tag belongs to the car. the early cars don't have motor/trans that are numerically tied to the VIN, so the best...

a friend is running the oregon 2204 which is about the same lift with more duration on a little tighter LSA. gobs of torque and still very well mannered. basically the same set up minus the headers and gears. maybe he'll chime in. @remytherat what's the verdict?

stuff will get cancelled, IP's bought, talent will move on, etc etc etc and so on and so forth. the wheels of production grind on waiting for no man. there will still be shows. the landscape changes, same as it ever was.
