    1971 351C valve cover help

    I’m not completely sure my Boss has the ramps your talking about, It just has the two tangs on the cap that provide friction on the Valve cover. They are the originals too.

    Decoding Wheel Stamps - Magnum 500

    Well can’t say I’m surprised at the price. I’ll check them out. I’d also heard of another operation but I think they were substantially higher in price…… like prohibitive. I’ll google Calchrome, thanks for the info!

    Hissing battery……

    We’re located in Cannon Falls, however I leave for Oshkosh Wi. Tomorrow and would return home later next week. What a generous offer! I wouldn’t plan on bringing gear just yet. I’m still focusing on the possibility of a failed VR, seems to make the most sense, it won’t get to try a different...

    Hissing battery……

    Update; after following the direction of Mr. Hale and disconnecting the field circuit, the volt meter reading with the engine running was a steady 12.56, or battery voltage. So I assume the alternator is functioning normal. Next I started the engine with the four wire plug out of the voltage...
