I just acquired a P5153478AB R-3 block. Does any one know about how much you can boar one of these blocks??? Thanks AL :blob:

great idea Turbo. I'm going to try that

Thanks Fishy. Thats what I was hoping not to do but it is what it is.

I have an engine of unknown origin with an extreme vibration 340 I'm thinking that it may have a cast crank and internally balanced parts hung on it.

I know how to tell the difference out of the motor. Is there way to tell when still in the car????

I am wondering if anyone knows a way to identify a cast or forged crank while still in the motor????? Thanks AL

I've done it. you have to cut the IP to fit a gauge in, use the same wire that worked the idiot light. then change the oil light switch to a sensor on the block. the premise is simple, but will test your skills at mounting a gauge in the dash.

six pack carbs are 500cfm on the ends (380 center BB / 350 center SB)

I used PRM stainless rockers 1.6 ratio, with eddy heads. Had to grind just a small amount on underside of the rocker. Pollish-up real good after grinding, so as not to creat a fracture point. Holds up well at 7k!

Your not supposed to measure deck hight at the top and bottom of the piston, because of piston-rock within the cylinders. Always take your measurement by the wrist-pin. this is the only accepted way to check deck hight!

Just in case.... I'm looking for a pair of eddy SB heads

rather than mill a head that far, that you would have not enough threads left on the intake side is foolish. you would do better to get a better piston for the job. do it right or don't do it! Al

never cut an intake except for clean-up purposes. and than just enough to clean up any imperfections. if you cut the cylinder head surface you than cut the intake surface of the head. that way the heads and the intake minafold can be swapped around to different engines without causing problems...

bearings & pick-up. Get the pan off and start checking the bottom end, and pump. If you don't disaster is only a short time away. Al

back in the mid 70s i did some testing for car craft mag. penzoil came in #2 after castrol. but for my money their both tops in my book! 70 road runner 6 pack, bone stock 1973 national record holder et & mph. owner (vince simone) builder (my father tom chamberlin & my self al cmamberlin). set...

no need to go more than 10% above exhaust valve size. it just creates turbulance! your Head gureau will tell you the same thing.
