    No Power, pops out back, runs hot, and Pi$$ me off

    I still say your running to hot , you have a mechanical fan and the added a pusher fan to try to cool it. First, you have coolant flow that is way to fast and you said its pushing the springs. this is caused by. Not running or running the wrong thermostat. Wrong size pulleys. A high flow...

    New here, question about switching to electronic ignition

    Then check for a grounded out problem. The wire or wires that go out the side hole of the distributor must not touch any metal part of the distributor. The screw and nut that hold the wires in the side outlet hole must go into a plastic holder so it dont touch the distributor. On the points...

    No Power, pops out back, runs hot, and Pi$$ me off

    Running a thermostat, do not run without one as the engine will just keep getting hotter because the coolant dont have time to cool off in the rad. head gaskets on correct, SBF gaskets only go on one way or it will over heat.

    8 inch rear with 31 spline axles

    Over the weekend on one of the car shows on the tube was a 8 inch rear they built with 31 spline axles. They done this to save on the weight and said it would hold up to every STREET application but slicks, sounds cool but I missed most of it.

    One piece rear main conversion

    You should'nt have to remove the rear main to install the seal as that would defeat the purpose. sorry dont know the specs. Take out the restictor and put in a valve cover inner plate that prevents the oil from being sucked up the hose
