Exactly. And yea, if its that far gone, rocks will fall out. If its that far gone, you won't likely be using it to hold gas for long either....
76 through 85ish is suppose to be 69cc heads with really weak exhaust ports. I know the 77-78 heads really suck something awefull, I've got a set...
Its a secret. I can't tell you that we made a bracket with 4 coil springs holding up the top half with a gas tank full of rocks strapped to and an...
The heads are a far cry better than the 77-79 heads he was looking at. At least this engine will be 9:1 compression, rather than 8.5:1. 89...
Whats with all these Alabama guys? Wish I had been on earlier, sounds like you're close, and we have a contraption made to clean rust out of gas...
What cam and what compression? Need input.
yea, gotta pull the windshield and half the car. Fun stuff. Not for the timid.
When I did mine, I didn't want to lose my AC charge, so I split the box. Wound up breaking a part of it. Nothing functionally damaged, but my...
by the book, you're suppose to pull the front seat. Remove heater hoses from outside, disconnect AC, remove the entire lower half of the dash,...
its kinda hard to hold the fork while hitting it with a five pound sledge. It takes a lot of faith the other guy won't miss too, not to mention...
I've done it both ways more times than I can count. With old cars (hell, any car) it would be wise to be prepared for both methods. We've had a...
He did weigh it. I'll see if I can get up with him tonight.
Doesn't bother me, I'd love to hear we have more left in it. My question tho, what did these 300hp 7 second cars weigh? This is a full interior...
Might be a timing issue too. Higher timing will make an engine blow oil worse if the problem already exists. My 200 had 120psi across all six,...
With street tires it'll spin severely. Do the math on the weight vs time in the eighth. It shifts at 6700. Peak is about 6500. I helped with this...
Depending on what carb you have, if you can work a screwdriver and read instructions, most factory carbs on these cars aren't that complicated. I...
PCV is a cheap test and usually shows some improvement even if the rings are worn. Likely with the age, it needs to be rebuilt. Keep oil in it and...
We built my cousin's 289, AFR 165, 1.7 RR, Comp 270H, bored .20 if memory serves, 3.8 rear. By Engine Analyzer 3.0 its just a touch over 400hp at...
If nothing else, how about some measurements and angles? I need one myself to replace my rigged up setup. Either make one or buy one, probably...
Was it good and hot? I can't imagine it not spinning with 4.11s, although you do have a helluvalot better tires than I do. Still sounds odd...
