Why not just snug it and put a big note on the windshield “remember to torque the crank bolt” then use your very nice tool. You running the motor out of the car first? Oh no lock washer.

I am leery of header wrap as I toasted a set of headers on of all things my '88 Dak with a 125 HP V6. I wrapped them to keep the heat out of the engine compartment but in about 3 months, the totally fell apart flaking rust all over the place and naturally massive leaks. Edelbrock said that...

I’m running the Ram 98766 kit behind my 400hp 340, 3.91 25” tire with no issues, but I’m not drag racing nor dead hooking the car all the time. Most of the time when I roast them I over rev and side step the clutch in 1st and floor through the rest of the gears.

It's Fairmont Friday! Good morning :D

lol, I’m the one looking for one. I just need an insert. Was wondering if you could meet up with this guy in Yakima for me.

My step dad was literally born (and raised) on a farm and was so handy at that kind of stuff. He really had fun running a skid loader. It was on 2 wheels a lot of the time. RIP Dad.

That's a nice looking tool! If you're bound and intent on torquing it to spec... It looks like if you made that, you would have the ability to either modify it for a 3/4 inch square drive for a power bar or flex handle. Or, you could drill and tap it for a pair of 1/2-16 bolts and make a handle...

Be interesting to see what they make and how much difference their is between the 2.

Exactly!

We use the turner one to hold the flywheel while torquing the balancer. But there are other style ones

I have a half-brother who is an OTR driver (Owner/Operator), and years ago he explained to me the relationship between the wheelbase of the tractor/towing vehicle versus the length of hitch point and the centerline of the axle(s) on the trailer. And in real life it makes a lot of sense, as it's...

So do you have a recommendation on clutch and PP to go with?

That's truly awesome. Congrats

Use the "rope trick" like you would do for changing valve springs- feed a length of rope into a cylinder through a spark plug hole, then let the crank turn until the piston comes up to TDC on the compression stroke. Torque it, then back it up and remove the rope.

Word out works.. but the preferred nomenclature would be word-up ..bro..:)

That's Hot Rodding for ya... adapt

Your plug shows to much timing or to hot of a heat range. There should be a slight change in color right around the bend. This is a rule of thumb. I would not change anything without knowing what you are doing with it. Race, you just back off the timing and start making runs. Keep adding 2...

Tha't's what I was thinking, but do you mean this works on both ends of the idler? Thank you.

I pulled a complete setup out a 2013 (?) Charger V6 police car.. I believe they're all the same. Cheap and plentiful, even if you buy new. Butchered the stock lower mount to just bolt in and fab'd some upper brackets, utilizing the stock rubber inserts. Really happy with how it came out...

Read up on the Clutch Tamer by weedburner on here. That shaved gear is from too much shock from the clutch not slipping. http://clutchtamer.com/ @AJ/FormS who’s Dave and you have a link for the synchros?

RIP Dickey. I saw him with the Brothers (my favorite band) and his solo bands many times. He was a great guitarist/performer! Also, his character was the lead actor in that Camreon Crowe movie, Almost Famous.

Made some sign boards for the old truck overhead canopy and put on a few stickers but need to get some old or re pop signs for the rest.

That's what I liked about those 711 Ecsta's. Still soft but not as soft as OEM. (Eagle RSA?) Great compromise between traction and tread wear.

Look like 67-72 small block 273-318 to me. The passenger side with the step is not familiar to me what body style it came out of...

Backing up farm wagons is even more fun. The front wheels steer on those. Good thing the tractor turns shorter and the tongue is long enough.

Put some stickers on the old truck sign boards this morning of some of my favorite Vendors. Need to get some more stickers.

Here's a link to a 66 Dart facebook group and a guy has one he's parting out. Log into Facebook

Yes - “word out.”

word! Rock sells saginaw and federal. Is trw just another word for saginaw or is trw its own thing?
