I have to revisit this & ask how the 1,000 HP SBE project is going?

That's a good point regarding the pricing-to-quality. I guess more so just due to the fact that I truly don't know how much deeper the rust issues go. Heck I took the carpet out of it & found total Swiss cheese, so I took old scrap metal (was wayyy to thick too so that made it come out mediocre...

Wonder if there is a company that makes rockers & rear quarters that will fit this 75 Duster that isn't ungodly expensive? The rockers & quarters on this are completely shot & I figure this will be a great car to learn bodywork on. Thank you in advance!

Gentlemen, For those who have & still do paint their blocks with glyptal. I once heard someone say that they use a handheld propane torch & paint thinner. They wipe they paint thinner on & use a torch to cook off the oil, said they repeat that process about 7 or 8 times minimum before they...

Alright I'm back, sorry about missing most of the conversation fellas. From what it looks like, that Torco sounds like the good stuff but I've never seen it anywhere. Looks like I need to start searching online!

Very fair & logical point

Alright so here's something I would like to ask everyone's opinion on. What do you recommend or use for your flat tapper break-in lube? I have just used Lubriplate No. 105 assembly grease with prior builds but those were mild to mildly hot or they were a roller cam. Now I'm currently doing a...

I know this thread is a few years old, but I found it while trying to do my own power to manual swap. May I ask where you got your steering box & pitman arm? I'm currently trying to convert my 83 D150.

I was just going through some of my collection & found this bellhousing I bought with an A833 a while back. Curious if this is the dual-pattern for the A833 & A230? Any thoughts?

That's a good idea, didn't even think to do that. Easy enough mod too

Sounds great, mind checking shipping to 51201?

I would just need the tab, I order a STANKE plate & didn't realize there wasn't a tab with it

Looking to see if anyone makes or has the angled oil tab that goes with the can thrust plate on a small block. Thanks in advance!

Just a thought, I'm between a 90° filter or doing a remote filter.

Hey everyone, Curious if anyone could give me some tips on installing a remote oil filter for the 360 I'm putting in my 1975 Duster. Are there any mods that I need to make to the oil filter mounting location on the block? Anyone possibly willing to share parts numbers for what they used? Much...
