Watching a trans temp gauge I have sprayed the pan and converter and nothing gives an immediate dip in temperature like hitting the top of the case. The aluminum just sucks all the heat out way faster in my experience. It is much more difficult to access in a car, maybe a hole in the floor...

Crap! I was away yesterday. Hope you had a great one!!! :moparsmiley::usflag::bday::usflag::moparsmiley:

Happy Birthday... :bday: :bday: :bday: :bday:

of course you took the convertible.....

Happy Birthday, eldubb440, and many more. Enjoy your day!

You have the newer version brake shoes. That oblong hole is for the park brake lever that goes in the hole and rotates 1/4 turn to secure it. I had a 78 Fury with these type shoes and levers. Real quick to change shoes on these type. The early 70's and back have all round holes in the shoes...

All BB's us a cup plug as far as I have seen. I use Loc-Tite 540 (PN#54041) to seal it. This is some great stuff, albeit quite expensive. SB's use either a flat plug or the formed plug (EPC203). Early Hemi's and Flat Head 6 cyls plugs are flat plugs. The plug you show in your pic was...

I like this build. I have a '78 Monaco police car (A38/E86) with the factory 2.71 9-1/4 rear that I am considering a similar build for on the factory 440 and the stroker is the easiest way to reliably do this with low stress on the configuration. Aside from the relatively mild cam you spec'd...

Hope you have a great one! :moparsmiley::usflag::bday::usflag::moparsmiley:

Mike: there are two types: The dished, as in pictures by Kern and 67B7RR, and the expanding type (not sure of their "formal" name), where you whack the center with a punch and expand it out. I've used both. As stated above, the purpose is merely to plug a hole and avoid oil leaking out, but the...

If I had room for another car now, I'd be all over that one like white on rice. It's even the right color, cars that are shades of brown seem to end up with me in my own little "island of unwanted toys" collection.

Talk to @Kern Dog

I met Nacho years ago at Carlisle. He has been a great asset on here. Smart kid.

What sort of cam button will you be using?

HBD!! :bday:

Are you sure that's the right cam plug? Small blocks use a dished plug expanded by denting in the center. it seats against the step in the cam bore. No, I guess not. It looks like a shallow freeze plug in the kits from Mancini.

Chris Birdsong documents the Vega window installation on his Daytona clone that's destined to be a dirt track racer. It's on his "Junkerup" YouTube channel.

That's what the Torrington bearing is for discussed in the other thread.

Happy birthday
