    Leaky fuel door

    I posted a couple days ago about fuel leaking down my fender on my 67 B Body. I had a chance to take it apart and see what’s up. It turns out the gasket behind the fuel door was cracked in several places and it fell apart. Any idea where I can get one or has anyone fabricated one? Thanks

    I built a 500 stroker B Block over the summer. I made some mistakes and had to yank the motor out to fix the rear main seal because it leaked.

    Hello, Just did a 500 stroker with hydraulic roller lifters, cam, and rockers. How long should I run the first oil before I change it? 35 years ago we would run it 500 miles and change the oil but, I’m sure there have been some advances in science that say otherwise. (Always trust the...
