Well it didn’t fit… I did a dry fit and it was all good but when I added the gaskets I couldn’t get the bolts started in about half the holes. I was using a slightly thicker gasket .065 vs .060 so I ordered the thinner ones to try next week. Have speedmaster heads and had an intake leak. Had a...

I was afraid the knock off would be worse and most have dual bolt patterns for mounting which I don’t care for. I’m going to use it but will clean it up before installing.

Maybe I’m being picky but sprung for a new air gap and not too impressed. Lots of slag and bumps, holes drilled off center and clean up done upon arrival. Wondering if I should have went knock off and saved some money.

I think so. The exhaust threads don’t go into the coolant passages on speedmaster heads and my t-stat gasket is rubber/silicone.

No oil in the coolant and no coolant in oil. Yes, running a t-stat. Haven’t got under the car but is puddling just behind the drivers side wheel. Would be under the starter or master cylinder in relation. I think it’s coming from the front through and blowing back.

Wow. Blast from the past. My wife lived in Bellflower and we loved Chris & Pitts. Didn’t know they were still around. Been 30 years since I’ve been.

you can just unplug them at the resistor and use a jumper wire to connect them.

Looks like thousand island dressing but doesn't taste like it. Every local place seems to have there own house recipe. One of the best is a local wing place that has a habanero fry sauce. So hot you can barely stand it but so good you can't stop eating it.

Crown burger. Flamed grilled burger with a mountain of pastrami on it. Oh, and fry sauce ( the orange sauce) been around here as long as I can remember but Heinz just come out with Mayochup and act like they invented it.

Winner! The cam part of the switch was sitting up off the metal stud instead of flush so the screw was too high and rubbing like you said. Thank you!
