    Found this Holley - 440hp?

    Found this at a swap meet…told the dude who had it if he didn’t sell it, I’d take it for $35. He texted today so I met him for lunch and bought it. Has a Mopar vibe to it, maybe 440hp? Thoughts?

    NOS lifters, pt# 3004647 - cosmoline?

    I bought these NOS hydraulic b/rb lifters a few years back. Pulled them off the shelf today, took one out of the box, pulled it out of the plastic and during inspection, I see they all have a waxy substance on the lifter face. Cosmoline? Break in lube? What do you think?

    I thought only 915s were closed chamber?

    Saw this in the local CL and I was confused (lol, not that ever happens). Is the 516 any good for performance or a boat anchor? https://seattle.craigslist.org/sno/pts/d/marysville-mopar-closed-chamber-heads/7357414970.html

    Engine weights across manufacturers

    I was looking for a basic weight on a “B” engine and came across this. The numbers after the weight appear to be dimensions. Also the list predates the Gen 3 HEMI, and I don’t see the LS, or Coyote. Chevy small block V8 575 (generic for '60s-'70s motors) Chevy small block V8 535 ('59 Corvette...

    Heavy Duty BB Rocker Shafts - which ones?

    I scored these "vintage" Crane ductile iron rockers a few years back. I'll need some shafts to go with them. I'm planning on running a dual spring with no more than .550" lift and 6,000rpm - a street engine. What would you suggest?

    8 3/4, 741 yoke/u-joint/seal interchange question - and moron award nominee...

    Torsion bar "maintenance" and '65 6cyl bars w/383

    I am converting my /6 '65 to a stroker "B". I've done some calculations and amazingly, if I go with aluminum heads, intake, waterpump and housing, radiator, and switch to headers, I'm showing an increase of no more than 70lbs. So I'm sticking with the /6 bars as my car is drag themed anyway...

    65 Coronet: stick with the stock grill, or go A990 style....

    I recently came into 2 complete center sections and 1 set of headlight buckets for a 65 Coronet. My Coronet wagon has a very cherry grill on it, but I was thinking how the car might look with the A990 single light set up. What do you think?

    Dear Abbey: ID these rocker arms...

    Abbey, I picked up these rockers recently. I know they are not: FE Ford, Buick Nail Head, Poly 318, Hemi. The previous owner said they were B/RB, but with the stands, I thought "maybe they are max wedge". What say you? Signed, "confused in Las Vegas"
