    Yes, I do them both. It’s real easy to do and you can always pull them out. I doubt you will because you’ll love what they do.

    73 Duster build named Fred

    Sucking hind tit here. I feel like baked *** and I have every joint telling me what a prick I am. I’d be dead now if I didn’t have your sprayer. I’m half dead now. Without that I’m pretty sure it would have been hospital time. So THANK YOU!

    Is 20W-50 too heavy for my 340?

    You tell me. What’s trick about bearing clearances? Straight and round and a block and rods that don’t move like jello and you can run whatever you want within reason. Nothing trick about that.

    lol there are no tricks or speed secrets with bearing clearance.

    That should be a good regulator. I’m now wondering about the gauge.

    How loose is loose?

    Thinner oil needs neither a deep pan or an HV pump. I’m going to run 0w20 on the street. I may end up with a 5w30 if the mains are a touch on the loose side but I’m banking on that 0w20. One thing I think people miss is what the gauge says isn’t even close to the hydrodynamic wedge that’s...

    I’ve had this happen to me, but only with those cheap assed Holley regulators.

    If you were paying sttention…original Holley’s don’t have that long T slot. They generally do not need T slot restriction.

    Holy crap!! 1700 CDN? Check with Summit. They sell TS rings under the Summit brand and I can’t say for sure but I’d be surprised if you can’t find that ring for half of that money. The biggest reason 5/64 rings are still used is the “market” thinks a thick ring seals better (it doesn’t...

    2 barrel to 4 barrel

    Again, I watch some of Ben. You may consider him a god. I do not. You say that *** duration and *** lift is what’s acceptable. To who? You? I get it. You love to listen to other people and broadcast what they say, rather than actually going out and building engines. I mean 220 at .050? That’s...

    If he thinks 4.30’s are too low for the street he definitely wouldn’t like 4.56’s. Or the 4.88’s in there now. Since he doesn’t like more gear or can’t handle it he thinks no one else can either.

    I start at .070 and tune from there. You may end up smaller. Thinking about it, I think I’d start at .062 as far as you are.

    360 vs 383

    I have been to Tijeras. Beautiful place.

    360 vs 383

    lol, come on. I said 6 extra bolts but it’s 4. How long does it take to undo two hose clamps? As far as the distributor being up front, you still have to deal with the fact that to run a rear sump pan the suction side of the pump is a mile away from the sump. I get it that many think there...
