1957 283 was the first production motor to hit 1Hp per cubic inch. In my book that puts it pretty far up there in terms of importance.
I don't think the octane is causing your run on, I have a 327 with a edlebrock carb (not my choice thats how it came) camel hump heads and a...
I don't know what taking the mick means, but I was just joking around a bit. If you are ever in that position again, it is possible to build a...
Are you running electric fans? I ran into this once, the fans were back feeding the coil after you shut it down and it would run on until the fans...
Looks very nice, now lets see a watts link version.
The sensing wire needs to be hooked up on every car with every type of alternator, A one wire alternator just does it internally. It's not tough...
[IMG] I don't think you need the resistor if your running an indicator light, but other than that, this diag is how any alternator should be...
That is sort of what is going on. The voltage regulator REQUIRES the voltage sensing wire. On a one wire this is just internally jumped to the the...

This thread got stuck on the drive shaft thing for a minute haha. I have driven, repaired many and built one 32 roadster from scratch, chassis,...

Weldwood Contact Adhesive, spray both sides, wait till it dries, and press together firmly.

You shouldn't need 24 to crank it over unless the compression is super high. Maybe you have a bad ground or the power wire isn't large enough for...
You can adjust them at any point so long as your on the base circle of the cam and not at any point on the ramp. Best bet is to rotate it till the...
