Thanks for the informed opinion and please continue your videos as they are extremely well done....you have a way of taking all of the "mystery" out of Hemi engine. Hope you don't mind if I bounce some questions off of you as I am building my first Hemi, although I have built and raced countless...
Hey Rick.....loved your hemi build videos and gained alot of knowledge from you and would highly recommend anyone building one or just looking to see what the deal is with them to watch them also. Do you have any knowledge about the company in Canada making roller rocker set-ups for a reasonable...
I believe NHRA allows only a foot of rubber line Total....too many cars have burned up from these hoses that deteriorate and the worm clamps loosening up, or no flange on the end of metal line to keep it from sliding off when loose....etc.....I could go on, but you can make one fairly easily...
One thing comes to mind here after seeing the picture of the K-Frame......was it "powder coated" ? If so, ALL the threaded holes should have a thread chaser run thru them or tap to clean the coating that gets into everything that you don't want it too and will Freeze Up any bolts passing thru it.
They will chew them selves up quickly if not lubed after cleaning....most factory fresh cylinders have a thick grease in them. I cleaned one up on my own 96 ram a while back and didn't lube it well and it didn't last long...lucky it was my own and not a customers.
I have used Moroso Ceramic engine sealant in an emergency....it sealed a leaking head gasket on a 14:1 race motor at the track and held up until I had time to pull the heads off and replace the gasket. They make a version to use with anti-freeze and one for no anti-freeze. It was in an 23T...
I would suggest dropping the Holley Tech Dept. an e-mail and giving them your detailed info and they will give you some good advice on what route to take....picking up one of their books on setting/modifying carbs up and making it run as you would like it too. Don't be afraid to try things...
I've had to run a die grinder to elongate the holes and then they lined up better on some intakes....should be able to see which way to go by setting the manifold on it and aligning it with a couple punches or studs. I thought I was the only guy who got all of that weird stuff.....
I have all of the clips that came off a 68 R/T that is being up -graded with custom everything and have all of the clips separated to store away (those that will not be used anyway) and see nothing like that.....now you will have me looking into finding out what it is for......Good One.
I have installed dozens of the MSD set-ups for my own use and customers and have not had one fail yet. MSD website will tell you which Coil to use with it like a 8202 blaster coil to keep it working and make it last. These will fire your car quicker and dirty plugs are a thing of the past as are...
From a lot of past experience....Do a Good Tune-up on it, check timing chain slop, and a compression test or better yet a Leak Down to see what over-all condition it's in. Most big-blocks respond favorably with a set of the correct size hedders and free flowing exhaust. Also a re-curve on the...
I've had some issues such as those stated by others here.....and we also buy the stainless line in bulk rolls along with the various fittings and have purchased over the years the needed tools to properly make Our Lines in House for a Big Saving in money. The tools and tubing roller to...
What I do also is Liberally Spray the nuts/bolts with some good penetrating oil along with the tie rod threaded ends in side the adjusting sleeves ahead of time before alignment and after loosening the clamps, tap a chisel in between the openings in the adjusting sleeve and then you can turn...
