    I've set 1.7's up on my buddy's car's where they were about the same and they were loud for about a week then once the lifters filled with oil then it would go away.

    351 swap issues

    another question I have is about the lash on the rockers, the 1.6's are nice and tight, the 1.7's are a bit loose, by loose I mean they have about .010 play in them. if you shim them it just makes it worse, I thought about taking about .005 off the bottom of the pedistal portion of the rocker...

    351 swap issues

    I tried using the jumper wire again and there isn't a single code stored in the computer. I'll disconnect the battery to clear it then run the car for a while and check again.

    351 swap issues

    351 issues the car is a mass air car, It was all installed before I bought it. I double checked everything, TPS is set right. I left the new fuel line a little long for the driver side fuel rail and it doesn't pinch. I've watched the fuel guage and it shows the fuel pressure rise properly...

    Suspension Setup

    I'd say start with som FRPP C springs, get the Lakewood Traction bars (lower control arms) I like the D&D upper or the lakewood boxed uppers they both work great. Replace your upper control arm bushings too when you swap control arms. spericals are ok if you do more track time than road, I'd...

    351 Hyd. Roller Motors

    351 roller conversion Everything I've found says that to convert the older motors to Hyd. roller blocks you have to use the Link bar lifters which I've never seen for under 300.00 and the reduced circle cam. I'd love to get an older block for more strength but I just don't want the extra...

    351 Hyd. Roller Motors

    351 roller I want an existing roller block because I'm dropping it right in. I don't want to have to worry about 500.00 in cam and lifters to turn it into a roller block. If the lifters could be had for 200.00 I'd definately be interested in the older blocks. Also, do the newer 351's (94...

    351w oil pan question...

    well the larger pan means less windage due to the distance of the crank from the oil. I know a lot of people run the 7 qt pan with 5qts of oil so they can get the crank farther away. since you use the new pickup tube the motor will never know the difference. If you install a windage tray in...

    question for all you convertable guys

    I've had both types of tops cloth and vinyl, I've NEVER had a problem with leaving them zipped. I did have a problem when I left my jack sitting up near the top motor and the glass came down on it and blew up. but that would have happened no matter what when I hit a bump. I'd say leave it...
