I've been busy. Since the bottom fell out of our weather, it caught me off guard. I taped and mudded the seams, one of them was pretty wide, so I filled it before putting the tape on. It took about a week to dry. Finally got them lightly scuffed and put the topcoat of mud on. I sanded it...

I have a set from ARP coming tomorrow. Didn’t think it was good to mix them up.

If I did all that my cash back and points would be in the tens...... of dollars. It's not worth my effort. I have one card that pays no points, and no cash back, and I'm fine with that. .

I will second PENN GRADE! I've had nothing but excellent results in both the full on race motor and the stroker in my Roadrunner street driven car.

Exactly. Why not make a couple thousands per year for spending what you would anyway.

New heads. Not willing to risk it. Ill pressure test them and maybe use them on a street build.

It’s not just a few bucks. If you put all your yearly expenses on the right credit cards you are talking more like thousands of bucks. Why not make money off the banks instead of the banks making money off of you. It’s not hard to make the switch. Plus it’s rather convenient for paying...

I have another post with the issues I've had sorting this thing out. My guess is it happened during this time. No smoke, no water in the oil and no missing water. Could have been there from the start. I never really looked at them this closely.

Now we need to see some pictures

Yes they can be repaired. I finally found someone who has seen this. He has welded a couple and they eventually cracked in the same spot. Probably more costly to repair than buy new ones.

Mike, What do you mean Krusty needs an engine ? I thought you had it out this fall ?

I know the b bodies like positive caster. From my understanding on another thread the 73/74 control arm set up allowed more caster than previous years which was an improvement. Most people are achieving between -3 to -4 degrees of castor. Is there a point where there is too much negative...

I will for sure be doing a close inspection on the heads when I have them off. Thanks for the heads up.

This. The car I bought my wife last has 0.9 financing due to my score.

The lip is the easy part. It's the rotted out formed areas forward of the lip that are the bigger problem to repair correctly.

? You have a 383 Performer that has a squarebore flange? Mine is at least 35 years old and has the spreadbore flange.

I have never checked my score either. Don't know how, don't care. I HATE using a credit card, and pay it off when I do use it within a couple days, at the atm. I could give a flying duck (misspelling) about a few bucks cash back or points. I had a car loan once, about 35 years ago.

Ya know you just never know, but is it a Spartan horn?

A good score gets you lower interest rates on finance. That why people with bad credit can still finance a car. They just pay 20% or more interest. But they don’t care, as long as they can afford the monthly payments.

VW Beetle?
