EVERYONE carries them! I'm trying to find a spring without the reversed eyelets and they're harder to find than the ones with reversed eyelets! I...
Thanks, 56don, but i've got the tallest tire I can find for my 15" rim. Maybe I could find a taller front in a 16"?
Keep it up! Everyone needs a good laugh during these trying times...
Change isn't always a good thing...
I wonder if I let the air out of the tires on 1 side, to get a general idea? I know it's a stationary measurement without the car bouncing, but it...
Since the throwout bearing rides on the transmission snout/ collar, there's no way for it to align anything. If you want to make sure the input...
So, I'm @ 3" inches now, and I'm not comfortable with that. I just put a 502 in it, and I'd like to keep the oil in the pan where it belongs. It's...
what's a safe ground clearance for the oil pan?
Thanks! I built it 5 yrs. ago, and I can't remember if I put the reversed eyelet spring in. I've reached the age where the other day I got up and...
To tell the truth, I don't recall if I put the reverse eyed spring in or not. I may have thought the 4" drop in the axle was enough. But I will...
I had a 58' 392 hemi in it before, with hot heads on it, so I think it's a push on the weight. I might try adding a leaf or two... Thanks Twenty 8!
Thanks for the response, Swifty. Sadly, I don't have enough clearance between the bell housing and the trans. tunnel. It's too bad, because I have...
I need to raise the front end 1" on my 32' pickup. I just put a 502 crate motor in, and apparently missed the sweet spot on the motor mounts, and...
T he first thing I would do is pull the distributor, go to O'reillys and buy an oil pump priming tool and grab a 1/2" drill and spin it up for a...
Sanderson makes them, but for $1,000.00 they throw in baffles and bolts. But you have to drill your own holes! The so-called baffles don't do much...
Thanks Trendz! Did you mean convex side out? Where can I buy Indian head sealer? I'm surprised they didn't have to change the name to Native...
what's the trick to replacing the core plugs on a gen1 392 hemi?
I've got an early 392 hemi that was just rebuilt. It's got 1,200 miles on it and goes through a qt. of oil about every 200 miles? The smoke is...
Make sure he doesn't run it with the new headers on, as the chrome shop won't touch them! I was told the carbon fouls up their chemicals.
I was wondering what a good AFR would be for cruising on a blown gen 1 hemi?
