    Farmer tries burning coal for the first time

    My father in law always has a fire in fireplace, mostly wood, it was a heat-a-lator. Boiler plate liner that a fan would circulate air around so you recouped some heat from the other 270degrees of the fire. He would pick up random pieces of coke, basically baked coal to remove all the impurities...

    Who has NEVER had a cam or lifter go bad?

    I've never lost one. About to do my biggest one ever. A Bullet solid flat tappet [email protected] and .580+ lift. Only breaking in on outer springs and I'm a firm believer in the messy moly paste lube. I have always thrown away that thick rear end looking oil, red, green, yellow/green. I know the...

    How cold does it have to be before it cracks the block?

    This blows away my impressions of the south and how it was rumored to be warmer than the north. How is it that Sacramento is at 38 degrees latitude and Dallas is 32 but you guys in Texas get at or below freezing so much more than we do? I always heard that birds fly south for the winter but...

    Camshafts: All else being equal, what does an increase in LIFT have on performance?

    Lets say you have two camshafts with identical specs except the lift. Same duration, same intake centerline, same lobe separation but one has say .480 lift and the other has .520. What does the additional lift do for performance? A quickie Google search has evolved (or DEvolved) into...

    Circuit Protection and the "Shunt wire" by-pass

    As soon the fuse link blows out by a heavy short on ANY section of the charging system, the engine will stall because the alt by itself is not able to hold a short, even less while short keeps sucking the power ign system requires. Regulator is on ign system network so at the same time will stop...

    How should a reproduction fender tag w/options should look like?

    Actually I have heard that term used many years ago. Funny that not many people cared.....at least the ones without badges didn't. :lol: I remember a time back up until the mid-eighties where cars never got fiddled with much, and you could tell a car was genuine mileage by the condition of...

    Issues with coils

    So new coil arrived Friday thanks to summit racing who i can never say enough good things about. Was unable to go near the car until Sunday to install the coil to try it. When installed the car fired up with the first tip of the key and idled like a dream. I'm going to get a e-coil to have as a...

    Who has NEVER had a cam or lifter go bad?

    The last lifter I remember loosing was in Dad’s ‘78 Cordoba with the 400 lean burn. Must have been 1989-ish. That’s me in the back seat. We used to ride down to the neighborhood pool in the summertime with that lifter ticking. It earned the nickname “Ticka-Ticka.” Had to keep a towel in...

    Maybe spring pressure is a strong contributing factor.
