    How a New 426 Hemi/ 440 Wedge Block is Machined @ Energy Manufacturing

    10-12 hours of machining to take a raw casting to retail. I am going to guess that those machines are in the $250 an hour range, so that's $2500 to $3000 worth of machine work. This will help explain why a new block cost so much. Tom

    Torque converter bolts?..

    Laugh as you may, but this is an area that you need to pay attention to. Just as there always critical areas you have to pay attention to on anything mechanical. If it takes 44 post to get peoples attention and get the correct bolts installed then so be it. There is not a lot of clearance...

    What is the green light for on the rear of NHRA Pro stock cars?

    That's on there so they know they have the data acquisition system turned on. They flip a switch at the back to turn it on. Not turning it on just wastes a run because you have no data to work with for the next run. Tom

    That might be the case, but you can buy them all over the internet, eBay, and several other places. I thought someone on here might have some laying around they got in some kind of a deal. You just never know what the members on here have rat holed away until someone asks for it. Tom

    340 Intake Manifold Casting# 2531915 - Upgrade

    I am dragging this thread up from the grave only because I got the year wrong when I made the first post. John's car is a 1966 Signet, not a 1967. Still trying to find him a Mopar M1 Dual Plane since he insist it have a choke well. He likes the choke on the AVS. (Cranky Old Guys) Tom

    [WANTED] Big Block A-body Exhaust Manifolds

    It would be an excellent wire for building ears back. I don't keep track/ photograph what I weld. I've used this product for at least 20-years and have welded wood stoves, blocks, heads, intakes, and exhaust manifolds. If it's cast iron it will take care of it. The real secret of this wire is...

    [WANTED] Mopar Dual Plane Small Block Intake Manifold P4529116

    Looking to see what's out there for a friend. He wants the earlier version of this intake and not the later version that was offered. Prefer stock, unported, clean intake. New or Used I think this is the part #P4529116 for the intake in the photos, but not sure. Part #P4532059 is cast into...

    [FOR SALE] 408" Molnar Technologies Complete Balanced Rotating Assembly for 360 Block - New

    Here's the ad for the assembly below. It could be sent unbalanced for $211 less, but I would really have it done at Molnar, as they have a very precise balancing machine and I doubt you find anyone that will do it for $211. I can supply a dished ICON piston that will make 9.48 to 1 compression...

    Short Shaft Slip Yoke 727's in Old Airport Tugs?

    No, because what I am after was a very specialized application. Most transmission supply houses no longer stock hard parts for old 3-speed transmissions anymore. An odd extension housing and output shaft that hasn't been used for 45-years is not going to be around in a parts house. Their shelf...

    Torque converter bolts?..

    That lathe has a hydraulic chuck on it. So long as you have the head of the bolt against the backstop it will clamp around the head of the 12-pt. just fine. The backstop is bolted into the chuck, threaded rod with two jam nuts and just adjust it out to get it in an area you like. Sometimes I...

    Torque converter bolts?..

    I used a 5/8" collet and had a back stop inside the collet. That way I could shove the bolt head in and close the collet with repeatability every time. Touched off the parting tool at the end of the bolt and set X zero. Backed the carriage out and stepped over .118" for the parting tool and...

    Torque converter bolts?..

    Having just dealt with all of this I can tell you that the B&M 10230 internal balanced flexplate has two different diameter bolt patterns for 5/16" bolts and the smaller diameter for the 7/16" bolts. However the converter I bought has 3/8" bolts so I had to drill the 5/16" smaller diameter...
