You can just do whatever days you want, no need to commit for a full week. They have a power tour west, mostly in southwest though.

Norwalk Ohio, September 19,20,21 great racing, car show okay, swap meet is ok. Temperature is much better than Carlisle or the Nats. I like them all. Hot rod power tour is my new favorite. Drive the damn things that's their job not baking in the sun, sitting still all weekend. HRPT also has...

Yes, and yes. You remember my sons Coronet from last year? He had a mishap with it, it will be down for a while. He was busy collecting parts for getting it straight again. Just spent a lot of time in swap meet.

Shimmed tight so it clutches are squeezed at light loads ensuring both wheels are locked up except when turning.

I'd blend that away. You could measure piston height at skirts plus stroke from top of the bore see how far it comes down at that break. With 383 short stroke I think it does not even stick out the bottom of the bore. With that chip out the skirt may only barely get to that.

It's new and shimmed aggressively. Put another bottle of additive in. My son got a sure grip unit from Dr diff and it was never a problem till we headed out on power tour. After hours on highway, stopped for gas turned at the light at bottom of the ramp, and sounded like the rear end was broken...

That multi-orange one is mine. I need to get back on improving it, been wrapped up in a lot of other things.

I've cut loose a couple of "work friends" mostly because of being deadbeats. Always have money problems and conflicts with someone (usually about money, but not presented that way). Just plain tired of hearing the B.S.

No bolts on a big block with stock heads, STUDS. That is probably 3 hours of the work just getting the header back on.

I have American collectors. They are ok. I'm shopping this year around renewal. Just testing waters. You have to do that with insurance, of any kind. Every year is a bump in price, next thing your 5-6 years into a policy and your paying 50% more than if you switch. That usually rattles the...

Family over on Sunday. Just regular days of Sat/Sun, no extra days off. Happy Easter

Use the 143 tooth 11", that way a mini starter fits. 130 tooth Needs a real hack job to for mini starter on a big block. I vote single disc with dual surface McLeod. I think is was super street pro?

Put me down for a cooler/ice, one for beer one for pop/soda. I normally get Yuengling, but I'll take requests.

TIG tack the set screw, cut the collar at set screw if you need to remove. Pinning it works also. On a stock distributor you can replace the plastic collar (will break anyway when touched) and adjust out the excessive vertical play on the distributor with a drilled/pinned sleeve or collar.

I should have bought a cheap truck with a N14 in it and re-railed my '85 359, but water under the bridge now. I still have my '94 379 sitting here needs a engine (original bounced a main cap then broke the crank@ 1.4 million). I'll put it back together, little bunk, smaller tanks, then...

If cam was moving forward it would advance timing. It is probably forward and moving aft. I would look at button clearance. The distributor riding up a bit in the drive slot in a big block could be making your problems. I have always added a 1/2" shaft collar to the bottom like first picture to...

Well bobby boy what is my correct part number for a 1968 Charger with A/C and a 383 2 bbl? If you don't know them my "who cares" is relevant. Those cars make your skin crawl huh bob

I miss those days. I'm still moving back to one, in a Peterbilt. ISX, and this KW going down the road.

Your not touching that nowadays. I dropped over 30k in a ISX last year. Cummins used to be cheap, apparently they moved up to Cat territory. You can have mid 20k in a old N series. Cats are getting so old now there is no way your getting your core money back. I miss the weekend rebuilds on a N...

To the OP sorry to hijack your thread. Was only trying to let you know it is a thing to be concerned about when buying a alternator. Apparently I'm a dumbass because I do not have part numbers imprinted on my brain for my cobbled, shoemaker car that has done over 20k in the last couple of years...
