Thanks and the Hudachek’s are a great family. Their son (I forget his name) works at a shop in Gibsonia a few miles from my house. His father is a Legendary Interiors supplier and the son put it in my Super Bee. I will call both and thanks for the recommendation.
Would the build date be on...
The flywheel will be re-surfaced according to the shop. California is on the other coast but will keep that if a closer shop is unavailable. Thanks 69bee
I have a numbers matching engine and transmission Mr. Norms 1969 Coronet Super Bee 383. The engine has a blown head gasket and the water pump is leaking. I am not sure if the water pump is original as the shop has to give me casting numbers. Does anyone know of a person who rebuilds water...
We were married for almost 18 years and she was a stay at home mother. She gave me three beautiful daughters so I cannot complain too much. I had four stents put in my RCA seven years ago when I was 39 years old. I started to run and ended up running 12 miles day (crazy I know) and would...
Yeah, I had the flat tappet taken out and a roller installed. I have US Car Tool torque boxes and frame connectors welded in the car. It has been at MCR for close to two years and I suspect it will be another 6 months before it is all finished.
I had my 440 engine rebuilt and stroked to a 512 by Wheeler in Wisconsin. I am impressed with the dyno numbers and can't wait for the car to be done to test out the engine.
Yes, I am having him take the flat tappet out and replace with a roller with a different cam. He will then put it on an engine dyno again. I am excited to see the difference in power and hope the power curve remains at a reasonable rpm.
Finally got in contact with the engine builder. It is bored .055 to make it close to 512 cid. Compression is 10.1 and it is a hydraulic flat tappet. I am having the body shop send the engine back to swap it to a hydraulic roller. For some unknown reason, the body shop specified a flat tappet...
I am worried about it being a flat tappet if it truly is one. I have to wait for the machine shop to call back to verify compression and other factors.
I had my 1968 Coronet R/T's 440 cid engine stroked to a 512 and the machine shop used this cam shaft. Can anyone tell me if it is a good shaft for it? I assume it is a hydraulic roller.
Thanks again FBBO
I also park my Bee in gear with the parking brake on. I am talking about starting the car 'in' or 'out' of gear. I am used to starting in neutral with foot on brake now so I guess I will continue that trend.
