    Tools that you don't use very often and didn't use them a whole lot to begin with....and had to 'relearn' it....

    I still have the destruction sheet for the gauge but it wasn't helping lol I still have 99% of my machinist tools too including my mill and lathe. Thought I had someone interested in them and sent pics etc but haven't heard anything back in a week. Oh, I have a 12" dial indicator that came in...

    Cut drip rails off

    I removed the lower belt trim on my 66 Belvedere I 2dr sedan but got some rain gutter trim from a 4dr for it. Place it on the car and like it.

    Tools that you don't use very often and didn't use them a whole lot to begin with....and had to 'relearn' it....

    Mine was a dial bore gauge...got it shortly before I stopped doing engines for others and used it a few times but over 20 years ago. I'm checking out a 327 old school Chevy engine (first one to ever be in my shop!!) and decided to set it up for it and.....well, took me a bit to get it right lol.

    “ Can U Say HEMI / BLASPHEMI / HotRod.com

    I do too. A couple of years ago and buddy and I went to The Hemi Fest at the now defunct Houston track in Baytown. Any car with a Chrysler Hemi in it was welcome. There were a few off brand cars that showed up with the G2 Hemi but most had the G3 engines. The most iconic car that showed up with...

    440 Oil Passage Question

    Yes, EVERYTHING needs to be checked and there are many who do not know what to check. I've built several engines over the years and have never run into a clogged oil passage in a head including passages in the block. It's also a good idea to clean all those passages before assembly. But the way...

    measuring piston to deck clearance on 440 source dished piston

    And when 'mom' started dropping CR's for lower emissions the no quench engines pinged and dieseled themselves to dead. How bout a different cam....one that bleeds off compression in the lower rpm ranges but builds some compression in the higher rpm range when the engine is turning fast enough...

    “ Can U Say HEMI / BLASPHEMI / HotRod.com

    I was thinking the same thing about having bars on it once before.... I couldn't believe the torque steer the first time to drive a GLHS Omni. Took off a bit easily in first and power shifted 2nd and it was all I could do to keep it in my lane (street run) against a Camaro. I think him seeing...

    Classic Cars and Cell Phones Don't Mix Well

    I'll text while in my vehicle, but it's stopped. I still have great peripheral vision so knowing when the light turns green isn't hard at all. And many years ago, I rear ended a Toyota Corolla that pulled out of a parking lot into the inside lane and didn't attempt to speed up. It pushed the...

    70 Satellite LS Swap

    I said PROBABLY wouldn't fit and you CUT the car to make it fit. So.....did you cut the thing only because of the air cleaner?? Doesn't matter. You still cut the car for the thing to fit, so no crow here.

    Clunk on moderate to hard take-off from standstill

    70 Satellite LS Swap

    I thought about dropping in a 4BT Cummins into my 95 Dakota awhile back. They put out more torque than that pos V6 that's in it now and the MPG is way up there too. Nope....imo, it would be a waste of a good engine not to mention the Capri's engine compartment is probably not big enough. Maybe...
