    Tomorrow may be an expensive day… maybe not!

    By Krooser

    So I have been acquiring a pile of new and used parts in the last couple weeks for my 413 project. When you start with a bare block you have A LOT to buy! Earlier this week I bought a pile of stuff from a local guy… he has two large buildings full of big block parts. I got oil/fuel pumps, water pump and housing, pushrods, nuts and bolts … whole cr@p load of parts. Tomorrow I pick up some new ARP head bolts. The seller has a bundle of other parts intended for his old 426 project… I will... Read more

    Just started rebuilding my 383

    By Fluegelmeister

    Hi, Just dropped my numbers-matching 70 RR 383 off at the machine shop for a rehab. Planning on removing the 484 purple shaft cam and the 11:1 TRW's and replace with top-end and cam from 440 Source which is a little more streetable. Only 20k since a rebuild in the 80's so the cylinders look good. Hopefully just needs a hone. Looking for a nice driver with enough vacuum to power the brakes & drive to car shows with a little lump in the idle. Torn over Headers or repro manifolds... Read more

So it works for me, but maybe in the logs you can see many acces denied from others? thanks

    440 Motor gets hot

    By Caterpillars

    Ok, it's not a 440. It's stroked to 496 with aluminum heads and has a 6 pack set up - about 550 hp. It was getting hot - around 220. I clean/flushed the radiator ( 3 core) and put a few holes in the thermostat - still hot. I then bought a new high volume water pump and it cooled it down a little but over 200. Now I'm looking at the fan clutch - it moves with little resistance when cold, and then I started it for a few minutes to get it hot and it seems like the resistance is the same... Read more

    Avoiding coil bind

    Current draw when parked - 67 GTX

    By AR67GTX

    I keep battery cut off switches on my cars disconnected when parked. But when I last drove my GTX about 5-6 weeks ago I forgot to disconnect the battery and it was dead when I attempted to start it. Charged the battery and tested it with my toaster starter resistance tester and it’s OK. Never had an issue with battery discharge before but I’ve used the disconnect for decades so thought I would use my milli-amp tester to check for any draw. Not good. My big cable to the starter was not... Read more

    I took the leap.

    By RixGX470

    I'd been looking for a tow vehicle to tow my VW Beetle. When I researched what was in my price range, the 2003-2009 GX470 was high on the list. The original plan was to pick one up in Oct. or Nov. However, my daily is spending an extended stay at the mechanic so it moved my time frame up. On Saturday, I picked up this '07. White with a gray interior. 168k OME lift. Method wheels. I'm in So Cal

    1FZ FE Engine Torque plate

    By hazard

    Anyone used torque plates on bore or hone jobs for their engine? Did you use aluminum or steel plate and what are your thoughts? Did you take multiple before and after bore measurements, and if so, how did it turn out? I am doing a diagnostic teardown and blueprint job. 1FZ engine building and blueprinting One thing I am measuring is bores for size and out of round, on teardown. I believe a torque plate needs to be used to get accurate measurements, especially if you are to use one... Read more

    Electric fuel pumps, what are you guys using?

    By Dodgeboy68

    I am using a holley 110 gph fuel pump with an aeromotive fuel pressure regulator, but it is very noisy. I have no choice to use but an electric pump because my cam does not have the mechanical fuel pump eccentric on it. My car has a 500 cu in stroker engine so it needs planty of fuel delivery. Do you guys know of any pump that will deliver the necessary fuel but not be so noisy? Roger
