I read the article and stand by my statements. Mine come from actual experience not theories. Besides I'm not putting any credence to someone's writing who can't even spell "break" correctly! LOL I'm done with the subject.

Sorry but you have it backwards. Long primary tubes are better for low rpm/torque. Higher RPM engines prefer shorter primaries. A lot of videos are made by keyboard physicists who haven't got a clue. Check out NHRA Stockers that generally don't go much over 7000 RPM. They use long primaries...

For years I never used the lock washer on the pump shaft on my engines. I just always "finessed" the shaft down the distributor hole into the pump with a telescoping magnet. Once you have the shaft in the hex at the pump you just laterally slide the magnet off to the side. Once you put the...

I believe he was saying it would take 30K to fix a car the customer paid 10K to buy. At least I hope the poor slob that owns the car didn't pay 30K. If they did they didn't get taken, they got raped!

PICKY, PICKY, PICKY! LOL

Thanks to all that replied. Found what I needed. Appreciate the help!

Just gotta be a jerk and get political. Idiot.

If anyone has one of these new/used laying around I need to obtain one for a C4 build. Please let me know if you do and what you want to part with it. I have the outer ring and the cage/springs and rollers. Somehow the inner grew legs and vamoosed Thanks!

Sweet!

I actually should have had it done in 6 months or less. Too many other projects/distractions. As far as getting outside work done I always pay for quality of parts and machining. Which entitles you to expect quality work and to loudly complain if you don't ! Part of the time problem is so...
