Its one of those things "for the man who has everything" !! I guess it would be handy if the pin through the gear broke !!

Like wearing suspenders AND a belt.

What he said !!

Its just a generic adjustable prop valve, what more do you need to know ? The catalog generally won't say much. Try googling the part number.

Sucks to be that guy !!! The line drawn on the tape is where the dip should be. Who do I blame ... the sheet metal guy, the body and paint guy or myself ? If you've ever wondered why you come across cars with these corners screwed down ... !

The dutch has nothing to do with those corners !! Left as is two things will happen (or not happen) ... 1) the side trim will be too long at the bottom - not a big deal it can be trimmed a tad BUT 2) the bottom trim won't fit at all - because the corner is about 1/2" too high - what I was...

This is more like the curve you need ...

AMD quarter ... they need some major massaging in those corners. Sorry - no photos BUT use your trim to determine the proper curvatures on each side.

I will say this though ... if I were doing it again I wouldn't go with the full .055 over bore, I'd stick with the .030 over. And I'd probably go with a shorter stroke so as not to have to use an external pickup. Live and learn !!!

I used their 528 pre-balanced kit. Absolutely ZERO issues. I've used a bunch of their other stuff with no issues also. Find another machine shop 'cause if you do convince these guys to use the kit they'll probably **** something up just to say "we told you so" !!!

What am I missing here ??

I don't use the door handle to close the door. I give the door a push and let its weight do the rest. Likewise to open the door I push the button and the door mechanism pops it out and the handle only serves to move the door on well-adjusted and lubed hinges.

Hmmm, shocks aren't meant to alter ride height. If they raised the height by an inch I'd imagine its because they've bottomed out.

I like my Centerforce dual friction setup. 69 RR with 526 stroker, 4-speed, 3.54 gears

Many have used the broom stick and grease ... with no whining about how thin the bushing is !!
