Whiplash

[lewtot184]

i've got a "rescued" milidon road race pan with some surface rust in the bottom of it from a damp garage. i'm going to try the vinegar fix.

Regular old white distilled worked for me. I Hope you Had a merry Christmas Lew. Oh yeah, after you are happy with it they say to soak in warm water with baking soda for a few minutes to neutralize the acid , dry quickly and treat before flash rust begins.

There we go , I just saw that I have a decent before shot in my 440 gallery. This is after 3 days no sanding.(still have to smooth out the pitting though) The rest of the brackets on the engine that I could fit just went in the tub.

I am looking for a block warmer to put in this 440 when the time comes. The kind that fits into the freeze plug and plugs into a 110 outlet is preferred , i cant seem to find a part number for it. I used to have one in a small block 318 and it saved me lots of idle and warm up time not to mention fuel(from idling every morning) Would anyone know of such a thing , or maybe point me in the right direction??

Um, link? Napa? Not being a smartass, but where did you find one? I'd like one too- good idea, actually.
