    Aluminum cylinder heads

    So im going edelbrock for heads. They offer 2 heads for use with hydraulic roller cam, one's specifically for the 340. My question is, which head should I go with? I have the old trw pistons that just barely stick out the hole. Should I go for #60775 and run a thicker head gasket or go with #60175?

    Im not sure if these will work with my bottom end. Im running the factory forged steel crank, with factory forged rods, and the old heavy trw pistons. If my memory serves me right the pistons stick out the hole a little at TDC. I was under the impression I need open chamber heads.

    Aluminum cylinder heads

    Hey Fabo, it's been a couple/ three years since I have been on here. Between having kids and buying a house, I haven't had the time or money to mess around with my Scamp. Im finally getting back to it and I've run into an issue with the stock X heads. While tuning in the fuel injection I had a...

    Vent window seal

    Removing Mirror Glass for Powder Coating

    Dave, Is your mirror remote adjustable? I have non remote mirrors and they look like they have some sort of rubber or neoprene gasket wedged between the housing and the perimeter of the glass. I just don't want to pry and break the glass if that's not what actually holds the glass in.

    Removing Mirror Glass for Powder Coating

    How much scuff does the parts need; scuff pad, 320 grit paper, etc? Also, will powder fill and self level in scratches and small pits? The reason I ask is because the chromed surface on my vent window frames is slightly pitted. Leanna I appreciate all the info you have given me so far. You are...

    Removing Mirror Glass for Powder Coating

    Well that just crushed my hopes of powder coating all my chrome and polished trim flat black. Guess it all stays as is because paint won't last long on the trim.

    Removing Mirror Glass for Powder Coating

    I have non remote mirrors and was looking to remove the glass to powder coat the housings. Does anybody know if the glass can be popped out easily or will i destroy the glass taking them out? There looks like some sort of neoprene gasket around the glass or something that holds it in. Any help...

    Hood to grill gap

    They are new. I know where your going with this as I was thinking the same thing. Although, If the hood is flush with the top of the fenders i'm not seeing how the side bumpers are holding the hood up. I could always removed the side bumpers and see what happens. Whats your thoughts?

    Hood to grill gap

    I'll get a pic tomorrow, but as i said before everything else lines up. The front hood line matches to the front body line of the fenders. Even when i try to install the headlight bezels the top molding on the grill doesn't line up, so the bezel doesn't sit right.

    Hood to grill gap

    Tried searching for an hour in the archives and haven't been successful to finding my answer. I have a 71 Scamp that I broke completely down and painted. I replaced the front fenders from a 72 Scamp. The upper hood latch support, center hood latch support, and lower grill support are original...

    Is this 8 3/4 housing bowed?

    When you reweld the tube ends to the housing using the proper jig, the axle centerline will be inline with the carrier. My housing was bowed 1/4" but my chassis fabricator was able to slide the bar through the housing with out any binding. Like he said, these housings were never straight from...

    Is this 8 3/4 housing bowed?

    You can't go by that. The only true way to know if everything is kosher is to use an axle narrowing tool. It's all about the bearing centers lining up. Those sheet metal housings twist and bow when welded from the factory. That's why the ends are welded on last.

    X pipe or H pipe, again

    Ok so update, I got a 304 SS H-pipe 2.5" from TTI. I have a pair of SS magnaflow straight through mufflers comparable to the dynomax mufflers that come with TTI exhaust kits. I just prefer the sound and quality of the magnaflows. I'll be ending it with a couple 45* turn downs angled towards the...
