My 416 stroker has been done and driven now for about 2 years to cruise nights and shows. Today, about 70 degrees now, I took her out for a cruise. She usually runs at about 190 degrees. Sometimes creeps up to 200. But today it starter to go over the 200 up to about 210-215? Very strange...

Having a hard time installing my lower radiator hose. As picture shows, I pushed the upper end onto the water pump neck and am finding the lower end to be sitting way to low to pop on the radiator tube? In order to raise the lower end up, I would have to cut the upper end by about 3" which...

Wow, I think the hardest part about doing my demon was getting brackets and pulleys to work with each other. Point at hand. My 340 was built with edelbrock aluminum heads. Problem is, nobody told me that these aluminum heads protruded out in front of the face of the bloc by about 1"? Enter...

Pulled at 350 horsepower and 360 ftlbs of torque at about 5500 RPM. I am told the engine HP should be about 20% higher or somewhere in the 425HP range. I thought it would be a little more, but I am thrilled the way she rolls along. Plenty of power and a nice ride with great idle for a...

Everything is new. Started engine and break in at 2500 rpm for 30 minutes. High Z joe gibbs break in oil. Engine runs great but it seems to burn the hell out of my eyes when started in the garage. I don't have my appointment to dyno tune until june 7th.. So today I put my timing light on...

I have a breather installed on each valve cover and I have been questioned about not having a PVC valve on my 416 stroker build? Am I OK with the two breathers and no PVC valve???

Hey, What did you set your initial timing at to start and break in the cam on your 408/416 stroker motor. I have edelbrock performer aluminum heads and a Lunati 276/284 valve lift 513/533 Holley 750. Starting for break in I understand needs to be real close to prevent any issues. I think for...

New Edelbrock Performer Air Gap did not come with the two heater hose nipples. Is there a way I can use the Stainless braided hose to run to the manifold? What should I look for to thread into the manifold. Plumbing is a little confusing for me. Thanks

Just got my mounts from shumacher. Limited install instructions. Can I get help regarding the location of each mount and which way the bolts face? I know one goes in between and the other goes toward the front I believe but I am not sure. Any pictures would be great. Thanks

OK, I received my edelbrock heads. I ordered them for a 340 and they are the open chamber heads. I also ordered Comp Cam ultra pro roller rockers which include the shaft. It was mentioned in an earlier post that I should have got the closed chamber heads instead. I was looking at an article...
