Re: Pictures after head swap (hot rod content)

Unfortunately, I did. The two casting "nubs" on the lower section of fins on each head weeped. I finally got them to stop with 2 doses of liquid glass, but it was still bugging me that it was...

Re: Pictures after head swap (hot rod content)

Yep. Don't tell anyone, but the a modern concession I made was using a Petronix unit in the crab dizzy, so I decided to use modern, sealed caps to keep the sparks in check.

Pictures after head swap (hot rod content)

Finished swapping the Cyclone heads to new Edelbrocks. Hard to tell, but I polished the sides and fin tops. I guess I'll need to do the intake next winter, haha.

Happy to find the NOS...

Tips or a product that will clean radiator hoses?

I have some NOS 21A radiator hoses that I would like to use. They are dirty from lying around all these years. I tried using Dawn dish soap to clean them up, but it doesn't seem to work.

Re: Head bolt/stud sealant

I've also ordered some Leak Lock. Thanks for the tip, Robert.

I've used ARP in the past. I'd assume they just repackage someone else's product. This go around I'm using Hercules thread...

Re: Crane 400 Cam and a AL-1 cam

I'd have think that south of the Mason Dixon line there are a lot of old Crane cams sitting in garages, old shops, etc. I'd love the try one as well.

Re: 1940 Ford Front Wheel Bearing Interchange Question

They should. From what I understand, all of the internals are the same as OEM. I'd give them a quick call to confirm or check their website and compare part #'s since they sell races, bearings,...

Re: One Head stud too short each bank follow-up

All is well. Hope the same with you. Learned something new. Never seen that Lube Lock product before. I like how it comes in a liquid. Paste products can be quite a mess. Have you used it before?

Re: 276 stroker from 35 years of parts

This entire post is really impressive. I love how GB was faced with a problem, he thought it through, and devised a solution that most folks could also do right in their own garage. This type of...

Someone remind me, what was the measurement of the squish before the doming?

Re: One Head stud too short each bank follow-up

No rush on my end. Just curious.

B&S,

Without a doubt I've been accused of being one stud short of 24.

Re: 32-34 Truck Map Pocket

The one I have is similar to what Bob C has. I was told it came from a '34 truck.
