That was the Dagenham four speed. Fourth was an overdrive. I managed to run a 12.40 before I killed the shift forks.
Fairmont/Zephyrs are an obsession of mine. I've had four Futura models in the last fifteen years. Typical weight with a pushrod small block in...
Paul's right on the rod bolt sizes. Boring the bolt area on a stock rod to fit the 3/8" bolts will actually weaken the rods. Unless you can get a...
Valves are shrouded unless the chamber walls have been moved back away from the valves. Largest valves you can run in the early "pinched chamber"...
Did you even do a search on here? Not like this hasn't been covered before.
Really? You've gone to the trouble of grafting a Mustang II suspension to the car and you won't spring for real headers? :hmmm: Just for...
Too many things going on right now. Complete gas processing plant at work, four engine builds/two cylinder head jobs at the shop, I'm in the...
Budget 460 that runs 10's: .030 or .060 over with Keith Black hypereutectic flat tops stock rods with good bolts and bushings in the pin end...
Decent plate. I'd still go for the Parker as long as you can find an original and not one of the chinese knock-offs.

You can remove the boss completely IF you are replacing the iron guides with full length bronze guides and you taper the lower section of the...
See this? [IMG] Don't do this to the guide boss. Chipping and flaking of the guide boss when it is this thin is bad for your engine when it...
Big ol' bucket of Chem-Dip carb cleaner. Take the whole thing apart, put it in the basket, drop it in, put the lid on and let it soak for a day...
You're only in trouble if you let yourself be. :woohoo1: Even though it isn't needed. Nice work yet again, Junior. :rl:
But he's such a constant source of amusement. :rl: Somehow I see yet another "infraction" on the way.
No, it doesn't. It says to use thread SEALANT if the bolts go into a water jacket (see "small block Chevrolet" for reference). Spray the threads...
How much? :hmmm:
You're right....they won't feed 393" worth a damn. About the biggest valve you can get into those heads is a 1.94/1.55 and then you're shrouding...
Great. Another car show in east San Antonio.
