Just curious.

OK I know there is no clear cut answer on this but I would like some opinions. Lighter valvetrain equals higher max RPM without valve float so.....how much does it really matter? An example: A small block with some normal replacement stainless valves, locks and steel retainers against 5/16 stem...

I just bought a small alternator and it came with a jumper wire for the field to make it a one wire alternator. It says in the instructions that with the jumper wire the alt. pulls 300mill amps. I could just run a whole new wire for an ignition point but don't want to. So I was wondering if I...

Why is there "spanx power mama maternity body shaper" advertisement for ebay motors on this site? I seen it off to the right and it cracked me up.

I've heard people putting them on the headlight harness and making the lights use less amps. What do they do and how do they help?

I have just installed some 4 bolt splay main caps on a 360 and noticed that one side overhangs the main journal some but the other side is back away from the journal about .004-.006. Will the line bore take that out or should I just throw the caps on the mill and take .010-.015 off the surface...

Well I'm building another short block soon. I have a nice 340 now but looking for more cubics. It will start with a 4.100 bore 360 block with 4 bolt splay mains and a partial block fill. The crank will be an aftermarket cast crank with the standard 3.58 stroke. Rods will be custom aluminum which...

I went to sonic check some blocks last weekend and couldn't get stable readings. What brand do you guys use and what is the tip diameter? Also what do you use to calibrate it? Any other tips or trick would be a big help. Thanks

I will be putting it on this weekend. I've heard some people say I'll lose power but I think the big tubes and more filter area and the colder air will give me more hp. What do you think? Oh and I will be going to regular tubing but I'm using flex to start with.

A friend of mine has an LM-1 and he let me use it today. I drove around for awhile and my cruise ratio was anywhere from14.4-16.5 which is great in my books and my WOT was 12.3- 12.6 which again was where I want it. I was disappoint because I was hoping my ratio was off so I could grab some more...

I'm trying to find out what is the difference between 48 and 59 degree blocks and heads are. From what I gather the 48 gives better geometry by having the pushrods closer toward the middle of the motor right? If so then what's the diff. between say W2 48 heads and regular W2 59? There is no...
