Yes. That's all you have to do. Tap for 3/8-16 & drill a clearance hole in the "re-enforcing block". Pretty standard modification for these...
What material? Stainless & polished? Or chromed steel?
Or just buy this drill jig - Starter Bolt drilling fixture Inline 6 SBC BBC 250 292 350 327 283 400 396 454 Chevy
Good plan. I'm interested in what you end up using.
What material are you printing with?

HOT HEAP [IMG] Its real name was the King T, and when completed in 1964, it was regarded as a landmark Model T-based hot rod. Owned by Don...
Thanks for the correction. I was wondering about that 5.40 o_O
What I went by.
FYI in a stock transmission it appears that there are actually 5 detents. Reverse/Park detent is around the corner. That's what was confusing -...
Not quite. Nice explanation of how the hydro stick works, but as Speedy says, he's never raced one. So can anyone explain how you can have the...
I don't think so. If you are in neutral, that's one detent. And then 5 more detents (as you said) to go through the four gears and reverse. So...
That explains the shifter, but doesn't there have to be 6 detents in the transmission itself? [ATTACH]
If one goes as a spectator on Saturday, is there parking available outside of the show?
Great event and pictures - Thanks for posting the pics. There was a drone flying on Sat. Does anyone know where to find that video?
So, does the return line fuel filter have a check valve set at a particular pressure? Or is it free flowing?

There are a ton of generic aftermarket mini starters like this. Below are just a couple off Amazon. I never thought about machining the adapter...
No problem. And if the trailblazer starter won't work, it is pretty easy to just machine up a new aluminum block (see arrow on picture) that...
Since you're making your own engine/trans adapter, another option for a "horizontal" bolt pattern starter is one off of a 2005 - 20010 Trailblazer...
If you're going to completely rebuild the heads, I thought this thread gave some good useful info on current off-shelf-parts you could use:...
And just for clarification, those are valve spring "retainers" not "seats". [IMG]
Thanks for that info. Been thinking on how to eliminate the butt-seam in the o-rings. Looks like that issue has already been solved by using...
So, with the "hoops" cut off from tubing, is the cross section square or rectangle vs round for an o-ring? And what is the hoop material?...
Can you elaborate more on what the "hoops" are?
