    A904 long 2-3 shift overlap

    As per the title and I did do a Forum search. I only found 2 threads, so I must be doing something wrong. Moderate acceleration, a long 2-3 shift overlap. Definitely feel the car slow some, engine rpm reduced (exhaust note). I say it lasts about 2 full seconds. Which isn't quick as some...

    Aftermarket Gauges

    Yeh. First noticed a problem when my radio started leaking oil. Have an OEM electrical (thermal) gauge, now, and is not range marked numerically. I just look for a consistent indication. I did initially verify it's indication with a temporary mechanical test gauge Tee'd in at the engine block.

    Cut oil filter open, what is normal?

    Fine metal particles on a fresh rebuild is normal, in small amounts. Use a magnet to collect it. If you have a big fuzzy pile, that could indicate abnormal wear. Since you have decreasing metal particles with each consecutive inspection, I would say that everything is normal with that engine.

    Classic Industries promotions are a freaking joke

    Came across something similar with RockAuto. Was going to buy an air filter for a 340. $2.59. Name brand,(fairly sure it wasn't fram). Went to checkout and it was $14.59 shipping. I bought it from my local Advance. Paid $6 and change.

    100 Octane leaded gas, cheap

    As far as aircraft engines wearing valve guides, cylinder wear ,etc. That all depends on how you operate the engine. The company I work for had 5 Beech Barons, twin engine, IO-520 engines. I saw that fleet go to TBO 3 separate times. That's 30 engines with a cumulative 51,000 operating hours...

    100 Octane leaded gas, cheap

    My understanding is that there is nothing wrong with the fuel. It is in an above ground tank. The tank is being replaced and the manager does not or cannot transfer it to the new tank. I live 300 miles from Jackson Co. airport. Another 1000 miles to MA? $$$$ If I had a towable fuel tank, I'd...

    title

    How did you acquire the car? Bill of sale? Any documentation should help your case. I have not used any title service company, but have gotten a title for a car purchased from a private collection of derelicts. Not going to try that again. I will say that NC is really weird when it comes to car...

    Tire Valve Stem Rant!

    Thanks for the tip about metal valve stems. Always had valve stems replaced with the tires. Never had a valve stem problem 40 years or so. Recently, got a slow leak in a tire not quite 2 years old. Bad valve stem. Either this forum or FABO, someone started a thread that Chinese parts were...

    How do you seal your exhaust manifolds/headers ?

    One vehicle has original cast iron manifolds. Engine swapped. Reattached exhaust manifolds, no gasket. Seals just fine. Other vehicle has headers. Place a 1/16" diameter bead of high temp. RTV on the header around each exhaust port. Let it cure. Attached header, no leaks. Years ago, had a SBM...
