The Jalopy Journal
Here are the two parts of your question that stood out to me. Is there anything wrong with your current combination? Anything broken or far worn?...
Ha! Brilliant! Sure, it's not pulling through the WHOLE rad, but it will assure that a majority of the radiator is having air pulled through it....
Take some real clear, close-up photos of the door paint just in case. Don't plan on ruining it, but just in case, a good artist can re-do it with...
And try your best not to call him "Your Little Scrap Helper" to his face.
Because the guy who built the forum said so. I believe it was because he had a fav in the 64 or 65 era, otherwise it would be earlier. Don't...
Thanks RR. In my search before I posted, I saw a lot of people pushing no more then 60psi at redline, so thanks for the backup. The theory...
Thanks Scorch, It makes sense now that you put that imagery in my head. Dirty, It's a hyd flat-tappet cam, with slightly enlarged bleeds for a...
In general, how will the addition of -10 lines and a good flowing oil cooler change my cruising oil pressure? I understand that the cooler oil...
Got your PM Glen. I'll BS more with you about it later, but here's some of the general stuff that's going through my head. If you know: You are...
I had the same problem with the same cam. Tried springs, tried carb, tried more fuel... finally decided it was the hyd cam. Gave it one more...
Pull a valve cover and crank it over? Plumb a real guage in it at least temporarilly? What did the oil you drained out look like? Do you still...
Local dragstrips and round tracks? Drags for sides and end of sandtrap in the shutdown. Circle tracks for obstructions in turns. Man... you...
http://www.recycle.net/tiredepot/ Give this a good look through.
Maybe the lady knows why they were saved? Maybe another house member knew of someone who would buy them?
Heck, if a can of wd-40 unloads like an uncontrolled fire hose, may as well spray down the whole rotor so they will slide. Maybe coat the whole...
Splash of water as you pull in the parking lot, or were they smelling burned and smoking the whole way? I would imagine if they were grabbing the...
Here are the basics for a non-overpowered automatic car with disk/drum or drum/drum setup in my opinion: Give it a couple revs on the throttle...
Square one would be to check the fluid cold then running. May be the pump or fluid level? Low or severly burned fluid? Is it moving? Just an...
Why worry about the threads? How about an o-ring? Or if you want to get really fancy, what about a drain plug washer? [img]
The last time I wanted to do this on my daily I was surprised with how many types of vinegar were there...
It sounded like the rocker was running the center of the valve, so a longer pushrod would only put the pressure over the edge... Wouldn't go that...
Are the studs specific for full rollers? You definitely can't run it without the rocker arm on there correctly and I have seen people shimming...
All your other problems aside, please put a proper throttle return spring on that thing. Or 2. I might double check it's not doing the same in...
I know we are way past that, but next time think about warming up the motor before swisscheesing the filter. I know it's not always an option,...
Another thought: You have a cooler on the thing? Is it plugged up? Were the cooler lines filled pre-fire? Where was the level after you shut it...
Anyone have any brainstorms on tires? Think you could grind some of the raised white letters off of the tires to give them the right feel? A...
Heat, in general, definitely "thins" out the fluid, but I don't think 180 would come anywhere close to leaving you with no pedal... maybe soften...
Put the o-ring on the tube far short of the dent. With some practice, as you insert the tube it will roll into place. Kinda like a condom when...
Thanks guys. Don't really want to run it in with an oil cooler. Never thought of the pressure sending spot at the back of the manifold, but...
Got a pressurized Moroso unit, never used, in a trade. I may need a fitting or two, but I have some leftover line from another project. I think...
