    Lunati cam cores are AWOL...HELP!

    Sure,no problem, but it will take a while since all of the parts are at the shop in PA-it was definitely worth it though. The engine in the car now (from a 70 Demon IIRC) had the same treatment, but a Hughes hydraulic flat tappet cam and RPM Heads that I ported. one note on RPM heads: They are...

    Lunati cam cores are AWOL...HELP!

    Thanks, but the cam is on the way, shite. I booked all of my flights to the USA for September( $3000 here and back) to get the engine built, so saving $50 is not an issue. Thanks though, I will keep that in mind in the future. My first stop is to see Uncle Tony. I met him years ago...then...

    Lunati cam cores are AWOL...HELP!

    Wow, really nice. I ported out as set of of J and X heads to over 220 cc's. I sold them along and the folks that bought them were amazed...not to toot my own horn, but I have a special look when porting heads. I know how the air flows. I was taught by the best. I am building another flow...

    Well, thanks to my brother, I found a Howards cam, and it is in stock (the last one). It should ship tomorrow. It looks like the extrude honed manifolds are not going to cut it though...TTI's and an X-pipe are ordered as well. Here is the cam: Howards Cams 712113-08 Howards Cams Steel Billet...

    Lunati cam cores are AWOL...HELP!

    Hughes will not make such a "small" roller. They were my first choice. The Hydraulic flat tappet in the motor (Not the original, the "Velcro motor") in the car now is killer.

    HELP!!! Window adjustment on a 1970 Duster.

    Oh, the adjustment for the front stop is hidden under the Duster emblem. Remove it with care...it is 50 years old.

    HELP!!! Window adjustment on a 1970 Duster.

    I figured it out. The front stop was too low, and the rear stop was too high. Someone also set the rear brace in the wrong direction. In addition, I adjusted the door latch a bit tighter. Not optimal, but no gaps or problems with rolling the window down with the door open or closed. I also...

    Thanks for the responses...I have a stage 2 Firm-feel box in the car...whole front suspension is new. I remember way back when I first set up the car (in the '80's) Homer Bieber told me about the offset bushings. Should have put them in. Oh well. I will quick oder a set or two to have in...

    Caster and Camber.

    Jeepers, I can figure side-loads, piston speeds for ring float, mean-time to failure on Aluminium rods to mention a few things, but I am a complete dolt when it come to alignment. Here in Germany there is a dirth of shops that can deal with two eccentrics to set castor and camber. The last...
