Dougs header gaskets 4ever! Had em on 2 cars for years never a leak. Put Percys on this last time and one blow out on first startup! Replaced with my slightly used dougs and sealed right up! Get em through summit.

Thanks guys, Well after much frustration, a few filters, and a few header burns...I finally figured it out. The oil spray/ leak is not coming from the filter area anymore after all. It was originally but the canton filter adaptor stopped that. Second delema was the very end of the rear pan seal...

Thanks for the input. I will check that when I pull apart tonight. The thing is that Canton filter plate is supposed to be designed for the older blocks. Ill look at it all again and try to figure it out. Thanks again.

Anyone???

It is a 69 340 block and the adaptor was aluminum style with a steel bolt. The holes on the bolt were two low and two higher I think. When I changed to the original plate I used a factory plate steel and the threaded bolt. I now used the Canton plate with the factory threaded bolt and O ring as...

I have had this same issue. I had a 90 adaptor on my 418 and it leaked all over when I got on it. Last week I changed to just the filter plate and it still leaked. After reading this forum I ordered the Canton Filter plate with the O ring. I put it on last night, cleaned / scraped block surface...

OK I learned that the pistons were originally supposed to make like 12:1 comp, and the cam is specs: .549/.549, 252/252 duration @ .050, 112 lsa. 308 deg adv duration. It has 70cc iron heads w/ 90" head gaskets. The initial timing was @ 30 deg at 3000 rpm. If I put anymore into it it pings even...

thanks guys. I am supposed to taklk to the guy that built it today. If he cant help I guess its pull it apart and figure it out the hard way. never bought an engine built buy someone else and never again!

TksPishta! One idea better than none! yeah Ive been thinking of just tearing it down but did not want to get into the bottom end. Im still waiting for the builder to send me specs and part numbers so I can make some progress! They not on my top ten list right now!

I have but problem here in WNY is E85 is hard to find. There are not many stations around betweeen cruise ins that sell it. May as well go to airport w/ cans and get av gas!

I am having issues with my 372 stroker. It is a "toned down" high compression engine that I have to run racing fuel in on the street. I was told it is @ 10.72:1 comp now. I want to make it more streetable, but had @220lbs on comp test so not sure what way to go with it. It's a 30 over 340 w/...

I was told the numbers are 10.72:1 on compression ratio. Thanks

How did you make out on this ? I am having the same issue with my 372 stroker. It is a "toned down" high compression engine that I have to run racing fuel in on the street. I want to make it more streetable, but had @220lbs on comp test so not sure what way to go with it. It's a 30 over 340 w/...

OK you guys have peeked my interest. I have always run stock fuse boxes, wiring, etc on my cars and always ran a amp meter hooked up. Have you seen improvements by bypasing the amp gauge and rewiring all that stuff? What is the deal with these relays do they boost the power or just act as a...
