    Valve Cover Holes - yes or no?

    To the guys who are saying they are running them open, do you just mean that you have breather caps on both sides and no pcv hook up?

    Clearance Issues

    I am debating about a cam and head swap on my current set up. I was thinking of upgrading to AFR 165's and changing the cam to a XE268H. Will I have to fly cut the pistons on this new set up or is that just something that has to be done when you step up to the 2.02 valves. thanks

    Fuel Pump Eccentric

    I will try and make this short but I keep having an issue with my fuel pump eccentric coming lose. This happened once last year and after figuring out that the eccentric was the problem, I was blaming it on just overlooking torqueing it down after a cam swap. But know this has happened again...

    ? RE: identifying disc brakes

    Not to Hi Jack, but I too am wondering what disc's I have on my 67. Can you tell just by looking at them whether or not you have 4 piston or single piston. Pics would be great if anyone had any.

    Performance Increase

    I am currently running a 3.80 rear, so that is not an issue. So back to the cam debate it sounds like it's between the 280H and the XE268H. Any other opinions out there.

    Performance Increase

    I do have the Y303's - so my next question is, would it be worth it to port out these heads to open them up, or just save the money and try and find some nice used set of AFR's or TW's?

    Performance Increase

    Performance Increase

    I am currently running a cam with 290/300 Duration and .472/.496 Lift which I know is not a good set up for my application. If I went to a cam with 280ish Duration and .512 Lift, assuming I kept everything in my sig the same what kind of increase do you think I would see? I am also thinking of...

    Rattle

    Well I looked under there again and there is no bolt to speak of. I had once heard that the bolt actually goes into a plate and you have to remove the plate to get to it. Is that true? If so some pictures would be real helpfull.

    Rattle

    I have a 67 fastback and I finally found the source of a very annoying rattle. It is the passenger side seat belt anchor for the rear seat. My question is I cannot find the under side nut to tighten this anchor. Is there some sort of secret hole up in the undercarriage that I cannot find...
