yea, I know. I've run 22* initial and it never made mine ping in the past. I'm still researching.
Agreed. Need input. one recommendation tho, try running lower octane gas.
Some reading I've been doing lately, as well as some math on compression, deck height, etc, I wonder if the 74 302 was actually 8:1 compression...
I've got some rust on my drip rail on the passenger side, so how do I remove the trim? Looks like it pops off the bottom first then rolls up, but...

I know lots of guys around here that know where a Boss 302 Mav is, CHEAP, no rust, needs a paint job, runs great. Get there, its always a Nova...
I'm betting on alternator bearings... been a problem for me in the past.
68 to 75ish was 58cc. I had all the info at one time, 72 351 heads are like 60cc. Intake port size was larger, don't remember numbers right off...
Did you move the upper ball joint in yours RadMav? I've read it, downloaded a diagram and didn't have time or money to take the car off the road...
I'd port the 351 exhaust a bit and bolt them on. Thats my plan for my engine as well. The 66 289 heads might have smaller combustion chambers, but...

Yea, I know better than to call the locals on this. They don't have a clue about cars and will tell me that I can't change the VIN or I'd have to...

Aren't the later models (mid to late 60s) FMX all aluminum? Still heavy as hell, but I don't think they're cast iron. I'm pretty sure my old 55...

I haven't put much thought into it until a couple of days ago, but I need to keep my VIN matching my car, so I was going to pull the VIN from my...
Not really. If you go back far enough, say to 65, intake valves are smaller. I wish I could find the link... anyway, good 67 or 68 model 289...
ouch... uh... duct tape!! seriously, a bit of wire welding and she's good as new, just check farther back to make sure nothing settled in to...
