    Anyone order street boxers from X2C Motorsports and not recieved them?

    I ordered a set of street boxer rear control arms from X2C Motorsports back in November and haven't received them. When I call all they tell me is they're on back order. Square tubing on back order for three months seem a little odd. I heard they were a good company, I'm beginning to think...

    Bcam and stock springs?

    b cam How many mile are on those springs? If they're fresh you may get away with it but I would highly recomend changing them. Check with Thumper460, he uses a spring on his heads that doesn't need machining. PM him or http://thumperoforangepark.com Bill

    GT-40P Heads + B Cam + 1.7s = ??

    cam & rockers I running B + 1.7 Cobras + E7s works great. I believe the P heads use same length pushrods. I used the Ford Racing and just about all rocker bolts went 1/2 turn after 0 lash. I use d the Crane spring kit but ran into some problems. Contact Thumper at...

    Can I modify distributor to lockout timing.

    Just leave vacuum off, that stays still until vacuum applied and pull the weights and spings off and drill a small hole through and either punch a small roll pin in or use a small bolt and nut (roll pin is best) to lock out advance.

    New engine in and running

    Hey Mike, yes it is. The rain has let up today and Im going to have to do some tuning. It feels lean so I'm hoping I can just add some pressure. Ive still got the 19# injectors, but even lean its got some umph!

    Can I modify distributor to lockout timing.

    timing Are you using this on a FI set up? If so just pull thespout connector out and set timing were you want. If on a non-computer setup you can use any dist justmake sure it has steel gear and you can pull the wights and springs off and pin the advance not to move
