That nice intake manifold is back up for sale on that facebook group. IIRC Forsyth and surrounding area. They had dropped the price to $80.00 but then I had to take the one cat to the vet for the doctoring and that knocked the crap out of the spare funds I had so I notified them I’d have to...

How is the replacements held in without coming out once the engine is started, running and brought to operating temps ?

Didnt yet get them muktifunction and turn sig stalks ordered.

I’m wondering if THE GEP Optimizer blocks has a better reputation for rotating assembly balancing and crank bearing fitment, not selective fit bearings ? I also know the HP and Ft LBS of torque has increased. The GEP website lists the engine power ratings but it just tells those ratings with the...

Bolts from oil pan upwards all removed .

The tail pipe extension can be moved inwards or outwards and it changes sound pitch of the exhaust.

When I had the live gauge installed into the cab, running the facet impulse pump and then later the Carter pump that Leroy was selling I had no problem with with the cheap mechanical gauge. Went through several fuel pumps but then read warnings about bursting, breaking fuel lines so removed the...

I have four valve spring compressors. Three was in the shed and one on the garage wall. Two in the shed was missing the valve retainer attachments and had other parts missing. The one on the chair is the one I’ll mail to You tomorrow. It has the valve spring retainer arms attached but not the...
