Just tore down my Brother-in-law's 454 from his '69 Beaumont for a knock. Could have swore it was a rod noise. Even got worse as it warmed up. Instead we found two intake cam lobes worn off prematurily (lots of metal suspended in the oil). The crank and bearings still like new. Thinking that since the e...

Got fuel, she's turning over but not getting any spark. I've got proper volts to the coil so I'm thinking bad coil. I put a meter to...

I had a member ask me about the steps to remove a heater core so I hope these pictures help. You remove the bolts on the firewall and the heater box inside the car will drop into the car. One of the nuts is behind the inner fender but a boxed rachet end wrench will get that. I put a blanket on top for the motor and...

I've hired help from the guy who did my Flowmaster setup to install my new headers. They appear to offer a little more clearance than the old cast iron, but its too close to call for me. He is a perfectionist and did a fantastic job with the exhaust. I know that I should have done the headers at the same time,...

What is a good cylinder head to use on my .030 over 396 ? The engine came out of a 1968 Pontiac 2+2 ( 396 2 bbl ) so I think the heads might be wrong with my cam and Q-jet. I checked out the casting numbers and its 3933148, I would like a little more punch from my rat and wondering if heads with a bit bigger valv...

Been meaning to ask this question for some time now. My 64 SD convertible originally came with a powerglide. Sometime prior to my buying it the tranny was changed to what I think is a 350TH.

Has anyone had their exhaust manifolds ceramic coated? There is a guy at the swap meets who does this but I can't find his card. Seems to me he can coat them to look like cast.
