    Oil Rings, do I have a problem?

    Somewhat new build, but been a few years, - The rest of the car took longer than expected and had a few unrelated setbacks. Anyway, after a few short drives in the neighborhood, the next morning there were a few oil drops coming from the inspection cover. I checked all the other options &...

    Suggestions for engine build plan

    I'm sorry for the Wall-O-Text. I want to start putting together a plan for the motor for my 68 Dart project. I currently have a 340/833 that I ran on the street from 88 to about 2001. It ran strong, but I have no idea of its history or specs. Then it was parked. I occasionally shot WD-40 in...
