    331?

    302 block bore - 4.000 stroke- 3.00 = 301.6 bore - 4.030 stroke- 3.00 = 306 bore-4.00 stroke- 3.25 =327 bore-4.030 stroke - 3.25 = 331 personally i like the 331 (building one right now) more because a better rod ratio (i think that's the term) and i want to be a little different.

    Royally P/O'd, vibration problem

    I took my car into a local shop, because i don't have the tools or time to replace the transmission. They suggested that i replace U-joints, which sounded like a good idea, because they probally haven't been changed in 22 years. I was replacing the tranny because of it locking me into 4th gear...

    Question for 750 CFM Carbed 5.0 owners here please

    this is close, most everyone runs to large of a carb. this is the equation i got out of my engine building book. (VE x CI x Max RPM)/3456 VE = volumetric efficiency ~ for most street cars about 75 to 80% or .75 - .80 CI = cubic inches (ex. 302, 289, 331, 347...) Max RPM = i use the...

    Short throw shifter, What do you guys have?

    none of the shifters have an actual preloaded 3rd gear, but the trick is with the steeda the spring that returns the stick to neutral is a little stronger, so it forces the shifter over a little. that's my understanding of it. plus the shifter is somewhat leaning toward the driver (don't know...

    octane booster

    unless your running a higher compression, there really isn't any gain in using octane booster or race fuel, only a hit to the pocket book. as far as it causing problems, i don't really know, although it doesn't seem like it would

    block casting numbers?

    I was given a stock short block from a 90 GT (i believe), does anyone know where I can find casting numbers to verify this? is there a difference in the H.O. and non-HO blocks? How can I tell if the crank inside is a HO crank or not? Basically anything you can tell me to find out what block I...

    Alt(specific question)

    I have an '83 gt with no stereo, or many electronics at all... eventually i will want to use an electric fan and fog lights. My alternator is going bad (at least i'm almost certain) it's started to make clicking sounds today while driving from Reno to Las Vegas, and i figure it's about time to...

    My V6 GT (ignition problem)

    the spark coming from the coil to the distributer is the spark that is really weak, i don'tknow if the bad cylinders are getting spark at all.

    Carbed guys come on in.

    i didn't see if your carb had an electric choke or not, but if it does make sure that it is opening ALL THE WAY, and make sure that it's not being stopped from opening by mangled linkage or your air cleaner. you should be able to look into the float sight windows and see the level of fuel in the...
