    I want to be able to lift the front of my 70 Charger 500 off the line - need your advice -thnx

    That's a nice car, the less you have to change the better. Forget tubbing for now, you can fit a good sized tire in those stock wells. But you definitely want a street slick or a full slick for bite. The bite will bog the motor if it doesn't have enough torque but start with the tire swap. The...

    7 Qt pan/dipstick reading

    To me a seven quart pan means: seven quarts in the pan. Fill the pan with 7 quarts. MARK the dipstick. Now prime to fill the filter, lines, etc.. Wait a few minutes and check the level against your new mark and add oil to that level.

    Head Gasket Cylinder Overhang

    The change in compression is insignificant. Besides, unless you confirmed the compression with fluid and a burette - the compression is just an estimate !!

    Head Gasket Cylinder Overhang

    If the gasket is overhanging the bore, how is that caused by the heads ?!?!? OP: you need a different gasket. As for TF's recommendation, they don't know you're going .060 over !! If you have the proper finish on the heads and decks then you could use an MLS gasket. Contact Cometic and they...

    Line lock- on rear brakes?

    If he installs it that way then he will also have his foot on the brake at the starting line. This is fine for an automatic car but if you have three pedals then you want the line loc in the front brake line so you can have your foot on the clutch.

    Puzzling Super stock spring issue

    Is one of the front spring hangers longer than the other? Using a forward reference point on each side, are the hanger mounting points in the same location side to side? When I was taking my 69 RR apart I undid the rear shackles and the left spring swung over and damn near hit the trunk...

    Valve covers with no breather/pcv holes

    Well you guys have saved me a few bucks ... I have a set of plain Indy covers but Indy was never one to properly finish their products. There are mold and casting lines all over the covers and I'd been looking at some other cast (plain) covers that were far better finished. But if they ain't...
