    Big Block Chevy Header issue

    If they are the 2241's then those are the exact headers I have on mine. No fitment issues here but they are a pain to work around. Maybe you have the wrong engine mounts or ended up with a faulty pair of headers?

    Performace Tool W80671 sucks man sacks

    Sucks to hear. When I did mine I ended up buying the kind of tool you mount in a vice and then hammer in the die to create the flare. A major pain in the you-know-what, especially when flaring a section of hard line that's 8 feet long or so.

    Fitech EFI on 383

    Do NOT use the Command Center. It's junk. I have the 800hp Meanstreet FiTech kit on my 496 and im using the inline pump they sell. My first pump had 'FiTech" written on it, it failed after 4 months. They sent me a replacement for free that was a Bosch pump. It looked exactly the same so im not...

    Temp gauge sender, better in the head or intake?

    x2 on putting the sender in the head. You would be amazed at the difference in readings. I would much rather read the higher side than lower.

    RUST IN MY NEW OIL PAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Not surprising with KMJ garbage. The old saying "get what ya pay for" really applies to them. Ironically enough I bought a KMJ oil pan for my 496 years ago and it rusted through the zinc coating while it sat on the stand. By then it was a year or so after I bought it so it was on me. Also had...

    Getting OCD with fuel line, go AN?

    Just saying what Holley and FiTech told me when I was planning the EFI swap. Like I said, it probably mainly depends on the type of line and fittings you use. Who knows, I didn't wanna risk it.

    Getting OCD with fuel line, go AN?

    That's still more than the recommended PSI rating if I recall correctly. Of course that could also depend on the type of line you use.

    Getting OCD with fuel line, go AN?

    Just remember aluminum lines are a no go with fuel injection. I don't know if you have that or plan on it in the future. As for the fittings, aluminum will work just fine. I have all aluminum in mine except the higher PSI hoses for my power steering, hydroboost, and the brake lines coming from...

    2020 Corvette to START at $59,995.00 (price updated)

    I dig it! About time they made the change to mid/rear engine. You have to be willing to change in order to compete that's for sure.

    Getting OCD with fuel line, go AN?

    Can't go wrong with AN fittings. I have used quite a few different brands and never had issues except for some cheap ones I got off eBay. Most of the fittings, if not all of them in the Aerocoupe are Summit brand. The high pressure system I have for my power steering and hydroboost is Russell...

    No real surprise. It was dead for at least a year now. I imagine the MCSS forum will be right behind it.

    BBC heads

    Do you already have pistons? If not I'd look for a set of open chamber heads like the 049 or 781 castings. You'd have to use a domed piston to have any real compression but if you haven't bought pistons yet that's not an issue.

    Power steering vent

    I was kind of hoping to be able to buy something like a fuel cell vent thats a bulkhead style fitting that way I can just drill a hole in the cap and mount it there but after looking at my cap I don't think that will work unless I can find something very small. Drilling the reservoir might be...

    Power steering vent

    Good to know. I have thought about switching to a different, more performance oriented fluid as opposed to the off the shelf stuff im using now. I looked at the PSC stuff when I did the swap but that's just way too much money for me. I did end up with the PSC housing for the pump that lets me...
