My wife might be able to help with that. I was trying to gauge if the scratches are deeper than the cross hatching.

I am such a dumb a!!. I didn't even think about it.

I recently picked up a 408 stocker. After removing it from the create I started a thorough inspection of the engine. Using my bore scope I noticed piston skirt scratches on some of the cylinder walls. None of them look deeper than the cross hatching pattern. I called manufacturer and they told...

I am also running Edelbrock rpm heads. I had to modify the lower bracket to make the original one fit. Wasn't hard at all but left me with maybe 1/8" clearance.

I did to no avail. I called power master and even had my local box store look it up with no results.

Well versed on what they do and don't do. As mentioned in my post I converted for the ease of adjusting my mechanical advance because I have made many modifications to the engine.

Been having no luck with aftermarket distributors for my la 360 I built for my 74. I started out with the Summit ready to run billet distributor an exact replica of the MSD but at a cheaper price. Had three bite the dust in less than a 100 miles. I have used a few of these on some of my other...

I agree but I plan to do the power tour and wanted one on hand if this one was to give out.

Because it's over 50 years old and just wanted to have one on hand.

My 74 being a low mileage car has the original alternator on it. I installed some Edelbrock heads on it and was able to modify the brackets so it would fit. It works fine but wanted to upgrade to a one wire. The problem I am running into is the new alternators housings are deeper in depth by...

I have a real nice running stock 73 340 and want to upgrade the ignition system. I bought a Summit ready to run one and had 2 fail on me with less than a 100 miles on them. I have in a my Ford 390 street cruiser for over two years with no issues and I like the performance and ease of tuning...

They told me about 500-600 mi break on it before any burn outs. Can't wait.

I went from a 8 1/4 to a 8 3/4. I installed all new bearings and seals. I didn't use green bearing because some people had issues with them. I got my truetrac from quick performance and the forgot to include the spacer that goes between the axle ends so I couldn't adjust the axle end play. I...

I just installed a Quick Performance Truetrac in my 74. I see Doctor Diff no longer carries them for the 8 3/4 due to reliability issues. I have installed these in a few Fords and never had an issue. Maybe I should have went with the suregrip. Has anybody had issues with them.

Boy do I feel like and idiot. How did I miss that. Thanks guys
