    Idle questions

    I am guessing this is a solid lifter engine fitted? IMO it will most likely be the valve clearances have closed up,which makes a rough idle. I have seen this many times. So,before you tear into things,re set the valve clearances to specs,and see what happens. Cheap too. Betcha that will fix...

    WANTED ! HEMI 6 (Austrialian market)

    Hello, There were 3 sizes of those engines. 215,245,and 265 cubic inch. Compared to the smooth slant,they were (IMO) a rattly,coarse engine,but did make good power. If you were to import one,it would make good sense to import a K frame for the "hemi" as well. AFAIK they are interchangeable...

    Slant 6 225 valve adjustment

    the mechanic. a re- set of the valve clearances is a safeguard against any tightened clearances after an engine has "settled in". I can imagine dealer mechanics not doing it,but I would. regards,Rod

    exhaust studs

    they are all studs - or should be. the 2 end ones (front and back) go through to water,and I have found some heads that have the odd centre ones that find water as well. if a bolt is in there and it is doing the job -leave well alone,but if you want that original look,put a stud in. do'nt forget...

    Are What RPMS should a /6 be at while driving 55?

    hey burntorange. the reason for the smilies in place of the # 8 is because you are using the combination of the bracket and the # 8. if you post the "cool" smilie you will see the #8 and the bracket ")" appear. do away with the bracket thing and it will edit nicely for you. I know what...
