Have a check valve in my fuel line just before the carb. Running a Holley carb. I do give one pump on the gas pedal before cranking the motor if it has set for a while.
Price that is a good question. Needs body work or everything once you get into the restore process. ARE YOU EVER DONE!!!!!!! Buy one for seven thou. Then drop another 30 K. Plus all the hours needed to bring one back to life. Know I could not afford to have shops do the work now days. Looking at...
The motor is just about reassembled. Down to intake and exhaust manifolds. As most of us touching up things and polishing up my intake. The exhaust manifolds are looking kind of cruddy and going to sand blast them an do a repaint. Have a different product from KBS coatings. Loose the heat riser...
So, lesson learned and will just get a new set of stealth heads from 440 source next time and be done with it. Those jerks did not even swap my exhaust studs in the head or put the valve cover studs in it. What a rip off. I would call them but figured it would be a waste of time. Know I would...
Got new ones from AMD. But my buddy and I say itis paint on chrome. LOL. Saw a spec and picked at it with my finger and fingernail scratched the darn thing. But mine where so rotted out had no other choice except to buy new.
Ok so got the head back this week. It cost me almost 11 hundred dollars. Ouch. After getting it home yesterday took it out of my truck to look at it. They did not put in brass freeze pugs as requested by me. Well, I figure they will not rot out in my lifetime so will install it and move on. What...
Also, Rad support should have the vin number. On finding out which dealer ship that is out of the question. I know where mine was sold in what state. But all the dealerships are mostly gone. If so, most paperwork has been trashed. Do you have the build sheet for the car?
That makes it worth more money. LOL. I mean this car is everywhere on the body work, Bondo queen. You have to get it and put it together if all the parts are there. Don't think having a 440 motor is all that if it is rebuilt maybe.
So the people doing the head for me just called yesterday and told me they will need another 688 dollars over the 2hundred and 88 dollars I gave them when taking the head to them. The first time I took two head to them and let them pic the one they wanted to use. Then called me and said the head...
Update on my leak. It is a cracked head between three and five exhaust ports. Just below them is a horizontal fine crack about an inch or more. Now have another head at the shop being ready for the install. Just my luck. So, it holds true don't put your tools away. My shock tower paint started...
Sound like a stuff that is new to go with the build. But paying forward for a car that needs a lot of work. Everything is gone through, and it is everywhere. I just don't know if the price is good or not.
If you mount the gages in the space for the A/C vent, then maybe it would not so out of place. Don't shoot the messenger. LOL. Have you tried Tony's Mo parts. Wish you luck on the search. I stayed up till 3 in the morning sometimes to find what was missing on mine. Also call Stephen's salvage...
