The coolest thing about NASCAR is its roots - it would get a lot more interesting if they all went back to running 'shine.

they really aren't any easier on your shins...

I'm running a 670 brawler with my ram air setup - I bought a 1/4 inch spacer from Jegs (for the top of the carb, not the base) to make sure it cleared the float adjusters. Edit - it was Jegs, not Summit. Link below: https://www.jegs.com/i/RPC/707/R2013XB/10002/-1 I have no idea how they are...

Yeah, it was just a thought - not that I was specifically saying it was the same problem, but I would bet it's likely something small and easy to fix, once you find it (if you haven't already).

Jpaz - when you first experienced the problem, were you just cruising along, or were you pulling uphill or accelerating (pushing RPMs above your normal cruise RPM level)? I had a similar issue last summer, and it drove me nuts. it would start and idle fine, but at speed or accelerating above...

Welcome from Central Ohio - post pictures and ask questions - lots of willing people around here! Jim

My 71 had manual drums when I bought it. Drums can be rebuilt to work pretty well, but I wanted to go disc simply for personal preference. I decided to do a front disc conversion, but remain manual. I did this primarily because to do a power swap, you have to modify where the booster bolts to...

welcome on board from Ohio - lots of good info on the forum, ask around if you need something.

Welcome from Ohio

I don't know how pulling the engine is faster, considering all you have to remove or unbolt (remove hood, unbolt tranny, remove all engine harness/wiring, any accessory hardware (esp. AC) that needs to remain connected. All of that vs just removing a couple of easily accessible items then...

I did this over the winter. I had to raise the engine to make enough room between the cross member and engine in order to remove the pan. Unbolt your fan shroud and remove the long horizontal bolts from the motor mounts. The sway bar will also need to be removed, and I would also suggest...

I've shipped cylinder heads with UPS - took a set of AFR 195s I was selling to a UPS store and just worked with the guy working the counter to make sure they were well packaged and padded. They got from Columbus OH to Chicago with no problems. Buyer built a killer 383 stroker with'em.

Nice lookin' car - of course, I'm partial to black.

Good Post! Following this one.

Your engine/fan setup looks almost identical to mine. My rad is aftermarket, but placement of everything is the same.

I agree Geoff - I recently added the 2710 clutch and Derale fan to mine. When I did it, I did a bit of research about spacers, and realized the setup I had (pre-clutch) had too long a spacer and the fan was sunk well within the shroud. I've read that the ideal is roughly 2/3 in the shroud to...

Are you sure it's too rich (I'm just looking at your comment 2 posts above). Every time I had eye-burning/watering fumes, I was too lean at idle. I don't consider my self an expert, but I've solved that issue, and cleaned up idle quality more than once by richening the mixture. I know some rich...

Welcome from Marysville, Ohio - OMS is a good place to find those rare parts, and the prices on the more common stock is competitive too. Don is a really helpful guy.

The 3 primary dash panel repros are really pretty good. If you don't care about the stick-on wood grain, I would call them very good. I don't know of anyone selling the center piece with the wood overlay already attached (I opted to not worry about that on my car). I have a center console with...
