    3.3 and 3.8 V6's, MUST READ FOR ALL!

    Another option (if you don't feel you're getting anywhere with a particular dealer) is to bump it up the food chain. There will be a regional manufacturers representative that oversees all the franchises for a state or several states. They don't have to defend the original diagnosis, but are...

    Starting a 360 stroker (I hope)

    :D Well, as the title says, I hope to finally get something started on my Barracuda and I think I've settled on a 360 stroker. I've found an already .030 over block at a machine shop that someone else started, then never paid for. They recommended the 408 stroker kit from ohiocrank.com , has...
