Re: strange problem, losing et

In the last 10 passes Ive gone from a 6.70 on motor to a 7.35. My 60 ft suffers the most. Started with a 1.45 and now its a 1.7 som...

Re: 400 sbc main studs
In my 511 block with main studs and 12.8:1 compression, the caps were walking so bad I had to have the block machined where the caps sit on the block. I went ahead and had the block splayed.
If you can, have the block splayed.

Re: factory chevy front brakes staying on
I replaced the rotors, calipers, pads, rubber hoses and master cylinder. Still when I pump up the brakes the front stays on. :scratch: I can pump the brakes and come back in an hour and still cant turn the wheel. I did remove the proportioning valve and put in one with the twist knob. The line lock ...

Re: Driveshaft and Rearend
I had a 8.5 ten bolt with a posi unit and sprayed 275 off the line for 2 years. I couldnt make it break. That was with all stock parts. The motor probably had around 600 horse by itself. I just got lucky.
