    NOS argent silver styled wheel covers.

    That’s why I don’t trust anyone to work on my cars.

    Doesn’t matter what color you paint it, these cars have such awesome angles, curves, and sharp lines, they look great in any color. Great job with your car so far, it looks amazing.

    Need to replace front and rear springs

    You have obviously made many improvements for both power and handling. My thought is to weigh each corner of the car, provided the weight info to Eaton, along with the improvements you’ve made so you can get an accurate recommendation. You need to determine what ride height you want and what you...

    Timing issues

    36-38 degrees total would be okay for an iron head 429, unfortunately, todays fuel probably won’t allow it if you’re running 10-11:1 compression. On my 429, I ditched the vacuum advance and am using a Mallory unilite with total timing at 34 degrees and depending on the fuel it can still ping...

    I worked at ups back in the 1980’s. When unloading, they would time the amount of boxes coming out of the trailer.The minimum was 1800 pieces per hour. Loading was about half that number. Packages go along conveyor belts and are sorted depending on their destination. When package volumes are...

    351C 2V Heads Help

    Sounds like a tuning issue and basstrix’s post should get you going in the right direction. If your throttle plate is open past the transfer slot you will most likely have a lag or hesitation. Also, 2.5 power valve is too low. Your power valve should be about 1/2 of your idle vacuum in drive...

    Parts For Sale 351 Cleveland dizzy with Accell trigger

    I received the distributor, opened the box and found the nipple on the vacuum advance is bent over to the side. It looks like it was up against the side of the box. There’s a hole in the side of the box. Also, the box is damaged a little. The advance doesn’t hold air so it needs a new advance...

    351 Cleveland Build

    I’m in las cruces, nm. Winter nights are cold, but day temps are in the 50’s, spring, summer and fall are pretty warm here, 80-100 degrees. It’s all stock right now. I was planning to use this manifold with a 4150 600 cfm Holley and add headers. The heat crossover would be nice in the winter...
