    EVACUATING AC SYSTEM

    I have a universal certification in refrigeration and you're taking a chance buy not pressure checking the system. There is a chance that the vacuum will pull together pieces if they're broken right while pressure applied to the same break will push them apart. Its not hard to put some...

    Head Removal

    I don't know about the Cleveland(because I haven't looked it up yet) but my ford manuals for my Windsor says to reuse the head bolts. I've had this argument allot though. I think its because chebby uses torque to yield and everyone rebuilds those so they go off that experience when doing Ford.

    Engine running rich

    Another thing for richness is to make sure the butterflies aren't open enough to be into the transition circuit on the carb. Being that the engine is idling at 900 RPM at idle instead of 600 RPM you may have them set too far open. The tell for this is the car will diesel or backfire when you...

    Distributer drama

    The distrubuter is only meant to work. I rebuild a 351 and need to run it on my engine test stand before I can sell it. I have the stock distributer but I'm not using it because the engine was originally EFI and I don't want that much junk hanging off my stand. I'm just going to have to hit the...

Well, I tried to install the dizzy tonight and the end that fits on the shaft for the...

    Here Is A Polish Idea- Why Won't Plastigauge Work ?

    Mic the crank. Lock it. Set the bore gauge to be slightly bigger than the mic. Place bor gauge in the Mic and while it is in the mic calibrate the dial to zero. Now place bore Gauge in the bore and subtract to get the difference, Unfortunatly the gauge will move backwards so count increments...

    New gas tank and sending unit frustrations

    I replaced mine through Mustang Depot and had the same problem. Whoever is making these things think we have the same tank as the 1970 mustang. I put braided fuel line on it so it won't pinch.

    Buyers Suck

    So I've had my car up for sale for about a week now and the first potential buyers came to look at it today. I posted the car with the understanding that a buyer will try to talk the price down. These 2 kids tried to get a $1000 dollar discount. They basically told me the car was worth $4000 if...
