Their is always more than one way to fix a problem, we have always ran a shroud with the GM 19'' fan and that has solved any cooling problems. We have always built our shrouds and they are a LOT of...

We have always ran an afco single pass, with no problems. What you are looking for is a complete package. Fan size, pulley sizes, type of belts, and the shroud is very important. Buy or build the...

The idea of a power valve is to open at low manifold vacuum, when the power valve opens it allows additional fuel to flow through then power valve circuit to eliminate the lean condition in the motor...

Are you using push style hose fitting, or are you using the steel braided likes with the screw together fittings? Had a problem with the steel braided line When I put the fitting into the inside...

Hate to see that, better luck with the new bullet...Mike

No something does not sound correct .004 more gap in valve clearance will not break poly locks. Take a compression test. Look everything over real well. Talk to your motor builder, tell him what...

Look at Medieval Race cars web site. They make a weld in steel washer to control oil flow in and out of the axle tube, been down the inner seal route for years, never worked like they should.

If the transmission is a direct drive, ( with no converter ) that may be normal, the pressures in the valve body has been changed for a converter less transmission. Mine has done that since...

If everything ran fine last year, check what was new this year. If the motor run good in the shop on under lite load, but falls on it face under hammer down race track conditions, something...

Should have said compressed air dried on the carb rebuild to remove any loose debris. Sorry about that. let us know what you have found out. It will help everybody. Mike

Check battery voltage should be 13.2 volts for a fully charged 12 volt battery. Do load test on battery to maintain voltage. Part store can do test if you do not have equipment. Is all the new wiring...

Start with the basic, three things are required to make an engine run, compression, fuel ,and ignition. Do a compression test first to make sure that every cylinder has compression to fire the fuel...

While you are checking everything, check the vent on the fuel tank also to make sure the tank is venting properly, I have chased problems one way only to fine out I was down the wrong path. Mike

Mount the caliper to the back, get it out of harms way. Always run ours in the back.

What is the clearance between the throw out bearing and the fingers of the clutch pressure plate? Check with manufacture for clearance. WE set ours up to 1/8 of an inch. Throw out bearing only has so...

Additional thought, if you use seals in the inner axle tubes, grease the end of the axles where the drive plate covers the hub.

Check you rear end fluid, does it smell burnt or look black the fluid is bad.. If it does drain the fluid, check the fluid for bearing material. Stir the fluid with your finger in the drain pan, if...

Just a thought, you might want to wait on the different metering plate. That could just be a new problem to the whole process. Not trying to tell you what to do, but try and fix the problem first...

Jeff;
That is very interesting, are you wanting the LR to be immediately loaded when back on the gas for weight transfer? And off the throttle for corner entry immediately weight transfer to the...

Has the carb been properly cleaned. The fuel has to flow from the fuel bowl through the jets, through the metering block and exit through discharge tubes in the venturi. If the is dirt in the passage...

Reread you post, could you have an air or vacuum leak ? Some times when the carb spits and sputters we think it is to rich. Could be a vacuum leak causing a very lean condition. Check base plate...

The numbers on the power is when the valve will open at inches of engine vacuum. A 6.5 valve opens when in a wide open throttle position at 6.5 inches of manifold vacuum. A 3.5 valve opens when the...

Jeff-
Do you move the mounts front to back any, lower the mounts, or just adjust for camber caster?

Mike

We did the same thing off a rear end the was centered and straight in the car and made a jig for the rear end brackets, to use on other rear end. I could see where that would work for the front,...

We bought ours from the local Pontiac, GM truck dealership. I think about 60bucks. I sure would spend 60 to 100 bucks to save thousand of dollars on a motor. That would be SMART poor boy racing!
