Hi all, i bought a set of procomp roller rockers off ebay. these seem like really nice rockers with needle bearings and all. Unfortunately the support I'm getting from the ebay dealer and procomp are not very good. Here's my problem. Stock push rods for hydrolic are ball end at both ends...

Hi all, I'm putting my new front end together and the thin metal sleeve from the lower control arm bushing is still in the control arm. I read on the net that the only way to get this puppy out is with chisles and a hammer. Ok, started that and aside from bending it in, I'm not making any...

Hey all, I'll be ready to trick out my engine bay in the next few months, and was wondering if anyone has ever taken the serpentine system off a 5.9 magnum and put on to an LA 360? From what I know is that they're basicly the same engine with a tighter angle on the valve train. If so, is it...

Hi all, Don't know if anyone else went, but as usual, it was dominated by Bowties and Fix Or Repair Dailys. I saw one Hemi Dart, that was Awesome, spoke with a guy selling his 70 Duster. Nice guy, overall nice daily driver, but you could tell it was a crappy paint job (paint on the rubber...
