    302 issues

    the hardest part of that job is carefully emptying the contents of the beer can, it can be done with a lot of concentration. you could have asked for help on that part.

    351 windsor heads???

    depends what year they are from and casting#. look for the first four digits of the casting# should be a letter, a number, followed by two more letters. like e7te or f4tz. not many 351 heads will help you unless you have the right ones. some will in fact hurt performance.

    Who can weld on some subframes?

    lol, no. subframe connectors need to be welded in SOLID. there is no point in even having them unless they are married to the car. i would even venture to say that many available bolt on s/c's are not adequate for the serious racer. the tabs just aren't very big.

    Finished the 393 but need to plug the old dip stick hole

    i'm sure you can get a small cup plug. you could also make a plug out of a bolt or something. just gring a gradual taper and seal it with locktight and tap it in gently. but a cup plug would look better.

    K member help

    just got off the fone with qa1 guy, he said the front wheels will go forward about 1.5 inches with their k member, guess i'll scratch that idea. probably great for the track.

    K member help

    thanks for the help guys, i guess i'll be busy. i don't have the car in front of me but do the motor mounts on the k member unbolt, or is there cutting and welding involved? i may as well put the 4 banger springs in at the same time.

    K member help

    i'm also open to opinions on aftermarket k members as well, anyone using a QA1? i would like the wheels to stay in the stock position. keep in mind i am on a budget that just won't allow a complete coilover setup. not to mention this does need to pass a complete safety and structural...

    8.8" Rebuild Help

    woven carbon material is incredibly durable. gm has been using this in their torque convertors since about 97. they intentionally slip the tcc in order to acheive a smooth lockup. if you can intentionally slip a product and have it last 100k miles or so, you've got a tough material.

    auto tranny problems

    could be valvebody crossleaks as well, your best bet is to have it analyzed. could be as simple as the mlps sensor. see if there are any codes first off. never hurts to drop the pan and check for debris. 2nd sprag is known to fail.
