    Different plug seats on 452 heads

    I am getting ready to assemble my 78 440 & noticed my heads have different spark plug seats. 1 has a tapered seat and one is flat, assuming 1 was changed at some point. They're both 452 heads. Can I get plugs to use on either or do they have to be side specific? Choices & advice appreciated. Thanks.

    Voltage regulator choices

    I'm putting things together with my wiring in my 71' Satellite. It was originally a 318/904 now 440/727. I have several alternators to choose from in my stash & may get a new one even, but not sure which VR I need. It is converted to MP electronic Ignition if that matters. There are lotsa...

    Can we add the date the thread was made in the title?

    Is there any way we can add the date the thread was created to the title? I'm on a mobile, so it may be there for PC/mac users, but all I see is the date & time of the last post. Some threads I click on are many years old... Perhaps there is a way to re-oganize or filter threads by date created?

    Can anyone ID this mysterious item that fell out of my 452 head?

    I'm getting ready to clean up & re-seal the heads for my 440 and started scraping the VC gasket off. When I went to flip the head upside down to get the scapings outa the inside, this funny shaped dowl thing fell out. Looks like a restrictor for an orifice. Does it belong somewhere? No idea...

    71 RR air grabber studs

    I yanked the air grabber bulge the other day to blast the hood and after getting everything disassembled, it looks as though it has all but 2 of the studs previously repaired. Was every mount between the bulge & hood a coarse stud into the bulge with a 1/4-20 thread for the nut on the underside...

    Hi guys. I am replacing the quarters on my 71 & cut the majority of the panel off today. I noticed this strip of what I assume to be seam sealer or some kind of rubber epoxy in a groove in the understructure of the sail panel. I dont think the quarter panel was tight against it here. I am...

    Getting ready to mock up my 440/727 into my 71. Engine & trans will be bolted to the K & I'm curious if there's room enough to bolt on my headers before sliding the assembly under the car & lowering the body down. I've measured the best I can and cant see why it wouldn't work but its really hard...
