    Classic Injection

    I originally installed a '98 Explorer engine with AFR 165's and a CompCams XE258HR cam into my '70, using a Weiand X-celerator single plane intake with a Holley Street Avenger 770 carburetor, but when it got cold, the choke would come on and cause the engine to idle up FAR too long, so I decided...

    Help me plan my build!!!!

    Well, if you don't mind having the rear tire stick out 2-3/8" on one side, or having the driveshaft at an angle within the tunnel if you center the wheels, then I guess you don't have to do anything . . . but if you want the rear axle housing to sit centered and have the same amount of clearance...

    notching a block for a 347

    There is no difference in deck height between a 289, an early model 302 or a late model 5.0. There is a difference in deck height between these engines and a 351, both Cleveland and Windsor. There are deck height differences between a Cleveland and a Windsor There are even deck height...

    trans issues

    That doesn't mean that there isn't something wrong with the drum . . . or, as was posted by Brian, the sealing rings on the pump--maybe even the sealing rings in the drum itself on the piston.

    trans issues

    It sounds like there's a problem with the forward clutch pack and/or drum. When you put it into reverse, the transmission uses the high gear clutch pack and the reverse band When you put the trans into drive, however, it uses the forward clutch pack only It's possible you have a problem...

    how to install duraspark correctly

    First off--if your piston is moving down at the point where Top Dead Center, or TDC appears, or prior to that, you REALLY need to replace your damper! When something like this occurs, that means the damper outer ring has slipped, and there is no way, no how you are ever going to accurately...

    While I agree with your statement about there not being much difference, I'm not sure where you came up with the idea that the 289 would rev higher than a 302. I know of Pro Stock 800 cubic inch mountain motors that rev to 9000RPM, and NASCAR 350 c.i. engines that run 8000RPM all day With...
