I've got a couple of home made ones. One you pound on and the other you pull the bearing in. Both work without any problems. Make your own and...
Always enjoyed his posts and admired his work. Pray he is Heaven and the salt is hard and smooth. Pete
They don't look the same from here. Looks good.
Very sorry to hear that. I always enjoyed his posts.
50 years ago my partner and I raced a 283 with what we called fuelie pistons. They were forged TRW pistons. The pistons were never a problem...
Thanks Carl. I'll be there.
I think that Alex X had one in a streamliner, but I've been wrong before. Pete
The truck and car differentials are different, close in some ways but different.
Hope and pray that you all stay well. With my old body, staying home was the answer. Good Lord willing, I'll see you all next year. Pete
My paint adviser says "NO".
I think a couple (maybe) of new guys with less than a hundred posts are just having a little fun. Pete
I don't think anyone here is suggesting you put the rear end in out of square. Pete
Let me start out by saying " I don't know much about Pontiacs. Some engines come stock with the pistons slightly above the block. If you can...

I think I'd consider the 300 hp 327 cam.
What Baumi said. Check you tube.
Thanks for the update.
My first car was a '51 Mercury with 4.10 gears and OD. Loved it then and haven't changed my mind. Pete
I thought of a lot of things but the cure sure wasn't one of them. Thanks for reporting the fix. I'll add it to the list of things to look for. Pete
I don't know what kind of car you want to run this setup in, but if it weighs over 1500 pounds the power glide makes it a slug. Dual 4s and a...
I think Self, Warren, and Palmer all did it.
Guilty of using both 6" and 12". Gets me close enough to use something better. Pete
It's always looked a little spooky to me so I don't do it. To me it's the aluminum and its condition, not the bolts. Pete
One of the Moorehouse boys said " Ive seen a lot of changes in my lifetime and I've been against almost every one of them". Kind of sums it up...
A set of shimmed and leveled saw horses will be far better than the jack stands. Pete
Always. Pete
