    I kinda feel like an idiot.. Adjusted my Lokar Kickdown Cable following the instruction from this article http://www.hotrod.com/articles/the-lowdown-on-stock-torqueflite-kick-down-linkage/ Per Article As the kick-down linkage/cable pushes the kick-down lever rearward, it increases line...

    Lokar Kickdown Question

    I was tinkering with my Lokar kickdown linkage last night (picture is not mine, information purposes) and noticed while the Kickdown Carb Body Fitting detached and the kickdown cable loose, the ferrule is detached from the kickdown cable adjuster and has a free range of movement.

    Whooshing sounds under hard acceleration

    Fan Shroud Install--Not flush

    I bought a fan shroud recently from Mancini. Part number 130. I'm not real happy with the amount of space in between top and bottom. Is this something i should be concerned about or should I just seal it up with some black vinyl tape. I do have a US Radiator 4 Core and it's not an original...

    Help...No oil pumping to cylinder heads

    I recently had a set of 516 heads re-done and was in the process of installing them over the weekend, got it all finished and cranked it over and couldn't get any oil pressure to my gauge. So off went the driver side valve cover for closer inspection, I'm a fool for thinking it was going to...

    Head Bolts..Reuse or buy new ones?

    There seems to be differing opinions. Some say they stretch, other say they have been reusing them and torquing to spec for years. What say you ?

    Valvetrain noise coming from rocker?

    I've been fight a bit of valvetrain noise for a while, I've isolated the sound from the passenger side. Initial thought was a bad lifter not pumping up, so ran the engine with out the cover. Noise was still there, so that ruled out the rockers hitting the baffles. While running the lifters...
