    When shifting from 2nd to 1st gear, the transmission will free spin (engine will drop in rams to idle) and is advisable to only shift into 1st at low speeds close to a complete stop.

    A little help please

    I tore apart my steering box to replace the worm gear (20:1 now) and also the pitman arm. With everything mounted in the car, I have a considerable amount of dead space in the steering wheel. This is due to the mesh between the pitman arm shaft gear and the worm gear. Is the pitman arm shaft...

    Intake performance question

    I recently heard through the grape vine that if I were to machine my dual plenum intake a 1/4" down on the bridge (to allow equalization between the two) there could be some HP gains. Has anyone experimented with this modification created by Smokey Yunick (I believe credit goes to him or at...

    best for cruising?

    I'm looking for another set of wheels for the duster but more for cruising since a friend and I may be planning a 700 mile road trip around AZ. Instead of going with aftermarket, I'd like to go after some rally style wheel but not sure which would be best: 14" or 15". Is there a noticeable...

    Upgrade from the 4160 Holley

    I'm seeking some advice on which carburetor to increase some performance out of the duster by switching out the 4160 Holley 750cfm. Since I live in AZ, I don't need a choke and would rather have the choke plate and components M.I.A. Also, i'd like to try mech sec instead of the vac sec currently...

    New lifter break-in procedure?

    Thankfully I was able to pull the lifter out once the intake was off. My next question is, does any one have an exploded view of a hydraulic lifter? I'm not sure where the valve plate (circular shim with 4 holes in it) sits because it could sit underneath the spring or on top just below the...

    The engine is a 360 stroked to a 408 with roughly 1200 miles since the build. Currently the hydraulic lifter is disassembled within it's grove because the retaining ring has come loose. I am not able to pull lifter out of engine without removing the alum eddy heads.

    New lifter break-in procedure?

    Last week, I took the 'ol girl out for a spin and towards the end of the drive a slight tapping in the valve train started to occur. Today I was able to go through the rocker lash and found that one of the lifter retainers has come lose. The lifter needs to come out and be rebuilt/replaced. If a...

    Please refresh my memory as I have forgotten

    Yes indeed. You sir, have just jogged my memory on how to set the lashes I need. I was thinking a long the lines of overhead cams with rockers instead of push rods. Shame on me for thinking that. Everyday I work on vehicles that only use overhead cams so I must have completely forgot. Ciao, Jon

    I have literally forgotten how much rocker arm clearance there should be for my 408 stroker engine (w/ a hyd cam). I only have 1234mi on the engine since I built it, and tonight I thought I heard a slight tap coming from valve train. It has been over a year since I set the valve train, which...

    changing axle knurl diameter

    I am having a hard time finding wheel studs that will fit my yukon axles with knurl diameter of .65" that are longer than 1.5". Is it feasible to have the axles bored out to accept a .68" knurl diameter? My options are becoming very slim and if I want to run slicks I'll need 3" studs.
