That is wicked dude! It looks so technical but flows nicely! I like Mitch's metal face! Brutal!
Fellow Thunderbolt and best friend Keith found this key in my '55 while riding in the back seat. It's pretty old. I can't seem to date it but I'm...
That's funny! I guess you're right about being cheap sometimes. It's seem like when my give a shit goes out the window things seem to work just fine.
That's because they're scared of me. Mine is TOO fast.
Fenton headers on my 265 meant new exhaust, new longer starter leads, new longer plug wires, modified generator mount etc.
I'm dragging some Thunderbolts up there with me. We plan on bringing the THUNDERBEAST and some minibikes. Is there a minibike class!?!?!?!?!?
I have some spare pushrods so all it cost me was time and a set of intake gaskets. I've built many SBCs and have learned a lot of tricks along the...
Yep. About 1.5"
Thank you sir.
I was so distracted by my new ARP intake bolts' snazzy 12 point head design that I failed to notice exactly how long they were until it was too...
I'm 29, turning 30 in April, not too far ahead of you. Most of my best friends are at least twice my age. Over the past few years I've also lost...
Awesome!!!! Thank you!
I'll just wait 11 more hours to look it up at home.
I dont see anything, for some reason.
I also want to thank everyone for not breaking my balls every time I start a thread about something so minor. I appreciate HAMB advice. I guess...
1955, 1956 and 1957 all used different wire looms. I have the original for my '55, but they werent installed for me to see specifically which...
Thanks for the pics and ideas, that's exactly what I wanted. You guys are always very helpful!
I'm a bit OCD, sorry. I'm torn on how to route my steel fuel line on my sbc. I want it to be smooth and subtle and as simple as possible. Any and...
Car Craft publishes it once a year. At least in the past. I've heard possibly quarterly in the future. I've emailed them about a subscription with...
Any pics? I'd love to see it
They're leak free on my farm.
I checked Home Depot, O'Reilly, Tractor Supply, McCoy's, Auto Zone and a local parts chain with no luck. I tried searching on O'Reilly's site but...
If I'm reading the chart right it looks like 2232X6 would be the right fitting. Would the seal of a compression fitting be compromised if I...
That looks like it might work! Thanks for the help!
Edelbrock has a 3/8" flare female fitting that replaces the nipple fitting.
...or what about a 1/8" NPT male to 3/8" flare female fitting?
I've never heard about those types of fittings. I'll look into that, thank you.
The ideal fitting that doesn't seem to exist is a male 3/8" flare to 5/16" compression in a 90*, straight would work too. If a 1/8" NPT male to...
I'm in a bit of a pickle. The application is a single Edelbrock 4bbl on top of my 265 SBC with a stock mechanical fuel pump. I'm trying to build a...
Wow, what is that?
