If the crank needs turning anyway, wonder how much you could gain with offset grinding the rod journals.

Absolutely the first thing I would do! Sounds like a car with 1/4" of toe OUT. You can verify this with a tape measure yourself. You'll figure it out

In a book about Richard Petty I saw a black and white pic of an engine and trans about to go in the #43. You could see what looked like a narrow stripe running the length of the trans on top in the middle. I always wondered if it had been a color pic, if I'd see one of the "stripes" to help the...

Looks great! thanks for sharing this.

Well I guess you could partially close the choke on your next test drive.This will quickly tell you if its too lean, for whatever reason.

I'd call Bruno's Classic Muscle in Rockville, bet they could point you in the right direction.

Sorry to read of your misery, thanks for all the documentation. Wanted to ask if anyone has ever had a cam company replace one because of wiping a lobe, or lifter failure? Please send your cam back to the mfg. THEY will measure it and tell you if its within spec. This info will help all of us!
