scratch & dent though

I recently went into my local bank that I have had an account with since 1994. I was withdrawing cash to make a auto purchase. I had previously had some issues doing the exact thing. They did not want to give me cash that was in my account. Apparently there is a protocol where by you are...

I found some balls my guys really like. Soft enough to be easy on teeth, they'll tear up a bit , but I have never found any of them with a piece of ball missing, not something I can say about most of the others we've used. Since my current stash was getting pretty well used up, I went to my...

I love making close runs. Had a couple of wins this year by a .001 stripe. Very familiar with the wind as well. My 64 sedan with a 5" Hemi style scoop doesn't like head winds very much. Especially at close to 150. God hasn't taken very good care of me as well. Doug

Putting a thicker head gasket on is a bad idea in my opinion. Adding a little more cam will help, but I see no issue with using the stock cam. Using less cam is a waste of time. Tom

X2 on Sprayway but use dryer sheets after you spray!

Agree….the mystery is for what? I have found a few corvette parts and some ford stuff in the parts hoard….

As stated above, the rated comp ratios were often a 1/2-1 point higher than actual. 9-9.5 should run okay on 91, 93 would be better. Since stock 69 heads have no quench anyway, a thicker head gasket is an easy solution if you do have detonation problems.

Now I've got a hankering for biscuits and gravy.

1971 Ford Torino GT, 429ci / 4-speed

This story doesn't end just yet. Too busy working to mess with that cherry picker right now. I'm working on converting my radiant tube heater to propane from NG plus I'm playing with installing one of those ChiCom diesel heaters in the cold side of my shop just to take some chill out of the...

Most engines have less compression then what the factory rated them. You won't know exactly unless you measure. If it still has the factory piston it will be in the mid 9's give or take using a typical .039 thick head gasket. Factory used a thinner steel head gasket and will be a little more if...
