    What Is This? Came out of sure grip third member.

    Was dropping my third member to change gear ratios, (489 case, sure grip) While wiggling the case to try to clear the mufflers this fell to the floor. Any idea what it is and where it goes? Covered in gear oil so it did come out of the pumpkin. It is not threaded. Thx in advance.

    Interesting First 340 Compression Test

    Pretty sure that Rustoleum primer isn't going to stay in there. Why did you do that? Saw this in a race car engine, do not know what they actually used, but the oil dissolved the paint and plugged the oil pickup, took the rods out of it. You better keep a close eye on that or tear it down...

    Oil pick up openings depend on what?

    Is there a reason for an oyster type oil pick up opening as apposed to a boxed opening like the one below in the second image? It seems the stock oyster type has very small reservoir provisions to hold oil? Am I correct? Does the shape depend on the types of baffles/trap doors that the oil pan...

    Bent Pushrods-Trickflow 240 Heads

    For what its worth I've varied oil pressures in my 580" 7100 rpm Indy motor. 45 psi wasn't enough, shined the rod bearings. Not good. 65 psi no issues, bearings looked great. Re bushed the lifter bores from .003" to .015". Raised the pressure to 80 psi. 375 runs since. Didn't bother anything...

    440 rebuild difficulty 1-10

    many of my cars are converter to roller cams, and oil changes on them still are not cheap when using synthetic oil. cost wise you would need to take the difference in costs of the oil changes and figure how many oil changes to make up the difference. I really just chose the cam type by what the...

    Charlies oil pan capacity

    New to using an oil pan without provisions for dip stick. At what point on the inside of this oil pan is oil level full. Thanks in advanced, Larry

    Quench vs Compression ratio vs Detonation

    From looking at the pictures there's so much oil, maybe too rich, head gaskets leaking and who knows what else that no modern gas will support. Good quench is impossible with that combo. Try somewhere between 9:1-9.5:1 compression with a very clean burn.

    "Too high"? Based on what? Surely the oil manufacturer/supplier knows more than us?

    Stuff in coolant

    Who knows. Oil always comes to the top. Most likely form oily drain pans that were used for coolant draining. Does not look like much to me.

    What makes a Mopar engine special or different?

    So I’m asking this question because I’m wondering what are some of the details of let’s say the Chrysler LA small block that makes it different than a GM small block from the builders perspective. Can a Chrysler guy build a good GM engine and can a GM guy build a good Chrysler engine? This when...

    So, what is going on here?

    This is a "Shadow" Racing mopar/W2 block, is claimed to be from the decades ago Can Am racing series. A bunch of the engine stuff is being sold as a lot. I am trying to figure out the two blue AN fittings in the oil filter area. The large center one's purpose is obvious. The smaller not so much...

    Break in oil for new 440

    I was going to disagree but decided to check your link first. Thinking that the link went to an incorrect page, I went to their website. Your link does go to their "NEW" break-in recommendations, but if you go to the "Product Catalog" and at the bottom, "Engine Assembly and Break-In", it still...
