    Cam you dig it?

    ...was more of a torque monster. Since torque tends to equal victory in the stop light wars, the 383 ended up being more popular. Since the 327 crank and the 350 may have had the same main journal measurements Moving from my 327 to the 350 is not all that great an exercise. Could probably...

    Automatic TH350 to TKX 5 spd swap parts list

    Just figuring out pedals, if the bracket is different. The 330 crank already had a pilot bushing installed. Almost like it was telling me, ditch the automatic.

    '80 442 Vortec swap won't run...

    Yeah... My luck runs like that somuetimes...I haven't tried oil or marvel, yet, since I doused all the cylinders, before turning it over, with a 18 inch breaker bar...

    Sbc 350 harmonic balancer

    ...The major thing to be on the lookout for, once you remove the balancer pulley, is the presence of a bolt that secures the balancer to the crank snout. Again, it might come away easy or fight you. If you are restricted by circumstances or budget to using hand tools, then, in addition to the...

    1970 Olds Cutlass S Rat Rod Style

    So it runs, just not right. It started, idled ridiculously high. It also cranks like the timing is over advanced. I changed a couple of things, dropped the cranking timing to 10 from 15. It wouldn't even start until I put it back. I'm going to try a couple of things Mark mentioned to try next...

    1978 Malibu Project, 4th times a charm

    You can ship it to me and I'll let you know when it gives up?? I'll bet it's good for 900-1000whp. 🤷‍♂️

    Crank no start, no spark

    Closing the loop, got it running today thanks to a friend. I had the crank position sensor B+ wire in the wrong pin location.

    On the 'mildly' Cheap SS Monte Carlo chasing a 9.0___

    From my understanding all LS cranks are forged - perhaps internet hoopla - not sure. The rod exploded - 4 pieces of clean breaks. The piston nicked the head barely. The other 7 plugs were all in tact, the remaining ring lands looked fine. It was the limit of that particular rod AFAIC. Was that...

    What did you do to your non-G Body project today [2024 edition]

    Still cranking away on the 55 Chevy, did a ton of electric upgrades/repairs. Swapped out the center section in the diff last night. I still have to make a nitrous solenoid brackets, tie into the fuel system, and install two 5 point harnesses. Power Tour 2024 is coming fast, we are long...

    Alternator belt placement (Inner or outer Pulley) on a 1979 Monte Carlo

    ...usually better to run your belt on the inner groove of the pulley due to the stress added when using the outer groove on the alternator bearings. BUT, in all circumstances the belt should be straight or parallel to the crank pulley and any other pulleys the belt has to ride on. Just my two...

    Fuel issue - Stumped

    ...curiosity, did it run prior to the carb cleaning? Was it the same? I seen another member say it as well but did you check the paper filter in the carb? If you have another person available, unhook fuel hose near the engine and crank it, does the fuel come out nice or slow? Nice looking clean ride

    '80 442 Vortec swap won't run...

    ...culprit valves, that appeared adjusted with no gap, are actually a little too tight, and not allowing the valves to fully seat, therefore builds no compression, while cranking... Which is why I felt draw, but no pressure, with finger test... Will adjust rockers, and confirm assessment...

    On the 'mildly' Cheap SS Monte Carlo chasing a 9.0___

    Some carnage for those interested. I broke a crank bob weight off from the crank . I’m thinking the rod exploded because the piston barely touched the head (one mark in the photo.) The heads are reusable lol. But I’m not sure if the bob weight broke off 1st - I guess anything is possible. I’m...

    78 cutlass W-31 build

    ...free pickup only lol A-4 intake the #7 heads you see getting filled and ported in the video with a 5 angle valve job a 70 350 block std bore crank rods and pistons drilled for pilot bushing however it lost oil pressure while tuning and the crank should be cut. I've also got the 71 350 block...

    On the 'mildly' Cheap SS Monte Carlo chasing a 9.0___

    Was that a cast crank? The graining of the metal that shows on the inner diameter has me thinking a casting here. Stock rods or? Block gonna be re-useable or has it become a sacrifice on the altar of speed? Nick

    Olds 330 crank and flex plate to 2004R

    I found this in another thread by a CO member. Well, this is interesting. Bore on a 330 crank: ~1.68" Bore on a new SBO stroker crank: ~1.71" Snout on a PATC 200-4r converter: ~1.70" That is my converter, so it looks like clearancing is in order. Not an easy task with the headers, dropping it...
