  1. Engine Rebuild vs Turnkey

    find you a 400 4 bolt block and have it stroked. You can go to 434 real easily. Have all the rotating balanced. It will make a world of difference in how it runs and how long it will last. A SBC will be much, much easier to put into that 83 to 88 body than a BBC
  2. Here you go fast306stang

    back in the day, I owned a 68 Barracuda fastback.... I wish I still had it today
  3. Here you go fast306stang

    Chevy sent a regular Monte Carlo to Car Concepts for them to change over and put that greenhouse back glass in them. It wasn't done in a GM Plant. The 1987 editions were factory cars
  4. Here you go fast306stang

    and Chevy did the same thing with the 1986 Monte Carlo Aerocoupe.... so they could try and catch Bill Elliot at Daytona and Talledega
  5. Here you go fast306stang

    wonder if it will run with then N170 Charger? 0-60 in 1.67 seconds. 1100 hp from the factory, and if you want more than a drivers seat, you pay extra
  6. The Most Durable Truck In The World...

    when I was growing up, all they made was Fords, so we walked every where we went
  7. Help! I can’t get this stinking wheel off! Solved… Nut is off.

    weld a regular nut on top of it, let it cool, and impact that teddy bear right off
  8. Auto makers and 'Right to Repair"

    I remember when I opened my first NAPA store back in 2001 we were pushing Right to Repair back then. We would get every shop, mechanic, or person who walked thru the door to sign a petition about Right to Repair, and send it to corporate. They would put them all together and present hundreds...
  9. Anywhere in North metro area that still turns rotors?

    could be good, could be bad. It depends on how the runout is measured. Is that runout on the mounted on the spindle of the car? If so, about the only way to get it any better is to machine it on the car. IIRC, most of the majors spec a .006 runout mounted, and about the only way to achieve...
  10. Anywhere in North metro area that still turns rotors?

    I have a brake lathe that will do up to 16 inch rotors, with all the tooling. I quit turning rotors when I closed my NAPA stores back in 2009. I need to sell a bunch of shop equipment, if anyone is interested in that equipment

  13. HELP!! I need a mobile tractor mechanic!!

    charge that battery up before you test it. It could just be discharged to much to crank it, and the alternator is bad and not charging it. Charge it up until the voltage is around 12.4 VDC. The try to crank the tractor. If you can get it to crank, run the RPMs up to around 2000, and let...

  16. Fuel problems with 1983 C10 w/ 350 and dual tanks

    yeah, when they did away with the Echlin line and went to Standard Ignition, I was really bummed. The Standard Ignition stuff was the "Top Line' for the competition, and a value line for us. Then all the brake rotors went to import instead of United, and when they did away with the Echlin CO2...
  17. Fuel problems with 1983 C10 w/ 350 and dual tanks

    how tight did you run that bolt in, and could it have burred the shaft up? I usually just coat the end of the push rod with a heavy grease and let it hold the shaft up against the cam eccentric. If I found it necessary to use a bolt to hold it, I would just tighten it finger tight
  18. Fuel problems with 1983 C10 w/ 350 and dual tanks

    how did you hold the pump plunger rod up against the camshaft eccentric when you changed the pump?
  19. Fuel problems with 1983 C10 w/ 350 and dual tanks

    I use to own a couple of NAPA stores. When I shut them down it had gone from "Get the Good Stuff' to "Get the Same Chinese Junk'
  20. Fuel problems with 1983 C10 w/ 350 and dual tanks

    sounds like you have an air leak somewhere, and the pump is not pulling fuel from the tank because of it. Put a gallon can under the truck, run a hose down in the gasoline in the can, and hook it directly to the fuel pump. If it will run that way, then start moving back down the system...
