    How bad did I #$&% my piston up?

    So I'm installing my piston rings with a ring spreader, and the spreader LIGHTLY scratched the surface of the piston. I tried to be as gentle/delicate as possible but the f'ing tool bumped into it as the ring popped out of the spreader. I can BARELY feel it if I run my finger nail along it...

    Reusing a distributor?

    Hi guys, My apologies if this has already came up once before. I tried searching the threads for a bit to potentially answer my own question but I was unable to find anything. I have the original distributor sitting on my garage floor right now from my '79 LA 360 E58. The engine ran and...

    Headers on a 360 in a '67 Dart

    Hi all, My project involves placing a 360 inside my '67 Dart instead of the Slant 6 that is in there right now. It's my assumption that full length headers will not fit with the engine inside the engine bay for my Dart. With that said, my plan B was to buy a set of those "Block Hugger"...
