Yep. And higher ignition advance consumes more fuel to lean out the mixture. Which is exactly why most never fully realize the max ignition...
Yep, exactly. My jab was mainly aimed at the companies who outright steal and copy intellectual property conceived and sold by others. Procomp,...
Depends on what and where that loss of efficiency is located. I've had and seen many motors go below 200 when switching from 180's to 160's. The...
That's true but lowering water temps 20 degrees equates to maybe 6-8 degree cooler oil temps at most. Slightly cooler oil just gives more margin...
Yeah.. not everything is as it would seem Larry. I've ground, ported, and welded on both. Sent several edelbrock parts back due to casting blems...
Yep.. most likely 292 @.006 lifter rise. Not nearly as aggressive a lobe design as say a 270 @.006 roller cam but still a decent sized stick for...
Spring pads don't look like true k code heads but they'll surely be a world better than those bigger chamber smog heads. With 4 valve reliefs and...
the few things I could think of would be hotter combustion and induction temps followed by less allowable ignition timing culminating towards...
These guys have it right. Higher exhaust gas velocity combats reversion and helps with scavenging. Very important to have enough flow potential...
Old wives tale. Higher flow rates always win so long as the pump doesn't cavitate. A high flow t-stat.. or no t-stat at all will run much cooler...
Glad to hear it Everett. Could probably clearance that area of pitman interference with a BFH and some type of blunt object, bar or...
ooohhh.. that's pretty sweet too. Makes me almost wish I never had kids. LOL
No reduction in timing from 39 degrees at cruise rpm should result in less heat production in the cooling system. On well tuned vehicles running...
Boss's are cool. For those looking to be different.. what about putting some hemi-style boss heads on a Windsor based small block?...
There have been a few over the last several years but high teens seems to be more towards the norm. Just need to keep in mind.. like most...
I'd say Mike is right in the ballpark and Chip's car represents a respectable turnkey driver. If you were to have ALL the work done by someone...
27M.. as in.. MILLION? :drool: Seems a little steep, Chip! Would you consider dropping the price to 22 Million? Kinda tight on cash.. might...
Did you install a 160 t-stat? What exactly is "tuned"? By the book?(your "off by 3 degrees" comment says alot on its own).. by a vacuum gauge?.....
However you want to view it.. temp sensor goes in hotter output side of engine/waterpump.. or hotter input side of rad. Maziere and others sell...
LOL.. no wonder you had problems.. the silicone is supposed to go INSIDE of the plug boot Everett! :D I always use use a dab of dielectric...
