That was my initial thought, too... as soon as I saw a Ford pickup in the avatar and the thread title. But on #19, it seems that the problem is...
Well, if you can bring anything... how 'bout some employment for me, and a bunch of hot women for the general good of the Puget Sound? Actually,...
Then put me down as another positive feedback. BTW, this is just another example how cars are better than girls. I've NEVER heard of a guy's...
Welcome to the HAMB, J. Seems that if you don't post up an intro in the proper place, someone's gonna' look to dole you out a verbal (typed?)...
Call Mancini Racing at 800-843-2821; they may have a solution for you in a Milodon oil pump cover. I think Muscle Motors was coming out with...
Deuce, thanks for the heads-up on that book; I'll have to look for it. George, I had seen Scooter's hemi tech thread, but didn't remember that it...
Been a couple dozen views... nobody knows anything? Bueller... Bueller... anybody... anybody... Hey, I think I just saw a tumbleweed blow across...
I think you'll see more change going from old-school metering rods to newer ones with a bigger spread between power and cruise sections (or vice...

I'm running a dual-field 1970's alternator (40-60 amps?) in a '54 Dodge pickup with the stock ammeter. I have heavy-duty wiring (I think it's 4...
Oh, and to answer your question: yes, I'd pull the valves springs, cover the face of the valve and seat with a sharpie pen, and spin 'em. The...
Hey Octane, know you won't want to hear this: pull the motor out, completely disassemble it. It looks like the pistons were flycut for valve...
