A lot of what is creating the issue is the low pinion on the 9 inch. I would do as already said, raise the rear. I think I would also change to a...
A lot of builders put preload on the left front. I've had many old dragsters that the rolling chassis without motor would have the right front 2"...
My 68 Scout is - was a double dealer redo, They repainted it and retitled it one year newer.
Andy is correct & it was used on most all Chrysler 6 & V8s for many years. It's not really needed with modern seals used today so most discard it....
I think the pics above show the best way possable to get max strength out of the stock A frame. I have thought of running a length of 1 1/2 or 2'...
I have also seen the linkage reversed so it rotated the spool backwards. Another thing to check is the shutoff, if it's an older shutoff with the...
I use the round one that AutoZone sells, it comes in two pressure ratings, has a filter & a rubber wrapped mounting bracket. Around $40 if I...
I have 4 classic cars that I wanted to buy their classic insurance for, all in running and driving condition. After taking pics and processing the...
It's a must to have the flywheel balanced to match the 394's balance spec. It's usually done by welding on a weight.
For what is in the pic, I would gladly pay $400 but your in the wrong place - NJ !!
I have 7 in my shop now & have built hundreds. Most 350's with 010 casting numbers that were installed in 4 WD or 3/4 ton & up trucks were 4 bolt...
I run the electric from Autozone, cost like $45 It just installs in line, super quiet. I have one on my daily driver, 5 years & no issues. A cave...
Very nice pics. You have one nice rare block. Most that I've seen were CE stamped as over the counter, I wonder if these are stamped with Buick...
That's great, I never thought of lore as the same as fact. Thanks for explaining that as I've never heard it used in that way. I also would of...
I think of lore as like stories about Dragons. Is this the point you are at in believing that a 70's SJ 327 was made ? Perhaps I can show you one...
And right you are, but we are not discussing that large journal block that was used in production vehicles in 1968 & 1969 Chevy produced a...
OK cb The early blocks (1960's) had 2 large, around 1 1/2 dia plugs behind the cover, the late had none & looked just like a 350 (not the oil...
If your block is a spin on filter block with 5/16 bolts holding on the bypass valve ¬ needing a adaptor kit, then it passes the 1'st sniff...
If I may correct you, Yes 327 began (casting) production in early to mid 1961 as to be machined and assembled to be installed into 1962 production...

Things have changed since 1971 just set total with as much advance as possible without pinging & so it will still crank over hot without pushing...
Registering a untitled car in cal is very easy. I posted the info yesterday but the thread was deleted ? You need a frame with a readable vin #...
It's real easy to just slip in a wedge ? why cut it apart ? As to the offset pinion, it will run just fine. A easy trick is to buy a extra short...
Well hello right back at you !! It looks like you have some fun cars to spend the cold winters working on. I build motors for Export & many are...
No My name is Van & I ran the Nightmare AA/FA. I know Dale & I don't think he ever ran a Ford.
You sir are correct. I just finished my new FED & will build the new altered chassis in the fall.
I'm a old 460 guy, had a model T that ran mid 6's at 220 or so in the 1/4 with a 460 Ford.
Is your 290 HP Chevy a new crate motor from GM Mexico ? if so I would remove the cam and get a look at the cam bearings. I have been getting a lot...
