    If your frame rail is that bad in that spot-- I would check the rest of the rails-- both sides- then buy a nice used piece from a member on FABO or source one locally & weld in a replacement section or rail depending the condition of your ride. that is so rusted it pulled the captured nut...

    360 partially rounded head bolt help

    also tap that stuck bolt repeatedly with a hammer-- better to use 2 ball pein hammers-- place one on top of the bolt-- then hit the other side of it-- that way you do not round off the bolt anymore. Lawrence

    suggestions for my 340?

    I didn't read most of rumble's post-- but I'm positive his advice is sound . You need to assist us with more detailed info-- you don't know what gears you have not sure about the engine-- but you want to go faster. That is one vague & expensive statement. You need to find out what your car...

    ext manifold

    need? depends on what your are building, if you have the other side --might as well save it-- I sold a pair from a 74 duster for $50 shipped --so they are not valuable. not sure what your building-- did n't you have a toad car at one time ? Lawrence

    new heads on old block

    that's probably a good price-- but 360 heads on a 318 lower compression--- just food for thought-- bigger combustion chambers. Lawrence

    rebuilt? that is the $100 question-- does he have receipts? I have heard of people just degreasing engines & painting calling them rebuilt. so be wary of re-built engines. Lawrence

    Engine won't cool off!!

    and the factory gauge does not tell you temp-- you need an actual gauge with degree markings or a heat gun to tell what the actual temp is. Read the above posters comments & explain the detail of your cooling system, thanks Lawrence

    Idles fine until you tap brakes

    try disconnecting the booster-- plug the line & see what happens--- try it before the check valve & after the check valve---- if it works fine -- you then have narrowed your problem down, Lawrence

    how much do you gain with 202s over 188S?

    what the others said -- plus if you are not spinning in the higher rpm range-- it just is not worth the bigger valves. Lawrence
