    Looking for stainless replacement valves for 340

    I've been searching the web for replacement SS valves. 2.02/1.60. Length seems to be longer on them all, with Manley being the closest to a stock length valve. I've considered going to an 11/32 stem chevy valve because I need guides, but the length I've found on the .100 longer chevy valve is...

    Sold my slanty, its going in a Ranger!

    Guy off market place came last night to look at it. Gave me a deposit. I asked what he's putting it in. He tells me he's putting it in a Ford Ranger he's building for his girlfriend! He plans to leave it stock for now but eventually wants to turbo it. Kinda cool, definitely different.

    Which one flows better, factory 6 blade water pump or 8 blade

    I'm aware the so called A.C. pump has 6 blades while the non A.C. has 8. It would seem the 8 would move more water hence a cooler running engine. Seems like the air cars would need the better flowing unit. Also the Mopar bible recommends the A.C pump for a HP build, stating less drag. What gives?

    Any idea how thick the timing cover is behind the water pump?

    Pulled the water pump off the 70 340 yesterday, and like I've seen on others there is some eroded spots on the timing chain cover directly behind where the impeller sits. Doesn't seem too bad but it got me thinking how thick the cover is in that area? If someone has a loose one and a big enough...

    What exhaust manifold gasket for slightly pitted 340 manifold

    I don't know if this pitting will cause a leak or not. I hit the whole manifold with a file and there are a few slightly lower pits on one port, enough to feel. Any recommendations on a gasket that will seal it up? Or will any type of fill work? Or keep filing.

    Some of the older country songs sound better with a little pop and hiss on the radio

Was listening today and "Family Tradition" by Hank Jr. came on. I cranked it up and it just sounded right with the occasional...
