What he said! Try swapping the 4 and 7 wires, if it smooths out, that is the cams firing order. they make 4/7 firing order swap cams. I'm no ford guy, but heard that too.

F.Y.I. Once you get all the brake functions working, does your bbc have more than 10 (h/g) inches of vacuum at idle? Lopey cam perhaps. 10 or less, you'll need a vacuum canister to store vacuum for stopping. Typically more than 280 degrees advertised duration, you need the canister, and a 3.5...

The th350C plug in is over the pan, driver side, plugged in straight down.

My parts list, for your 7.5:banana: Weld up the axle tubes to the center housing. Moser pn A102801/28 spline, stock length on my elco. Get a 3 series carrier from late 80 s, early 90 s f body, or s 10 axle. (auburn posi preferred) They are 28 spline. There are lots of trailing arm sets...

A simple rule. If you change 1 gear set to another housing, This is the key. The pinion bearing, shims on that bearing, and crush sleeve that are IN THE axle/HOUSING you are using, need to be used, on the pinion you are installing. Someone else has already done the "setup" on that housing. The...

Also, look for discoloration on the big end of connecting rods. would be a spun bearing. Should be able to see hone marks in bore. Good luck.

Just guessing? u have either a massive vacuum leak,(big hose like pwr brks) or, its flooding the engine with gas. To determine flooding, remove air cleaner, lookin down into carb while someone trys to start it, if u see gas dripping fast, flooding.

Just lurnd this one. Startin at the pinion, If you take the shims off the pinion in your housing, (should be shims behind bearing) move them to the new one, 99% back in the rite spot. then shimming the carrier back in. Good Luck. My son loves these gears. Mileage seems easy, cause motor is not...

I just put a TCI ssf th350 in mine. WITH A NEW CABLE, disconnected. Because, the cable I had, was hanging up, not even hooked up. If u used an old one, it could be on the switch, without any help. Maybe,

I have set up the A102801 (still got the box) with the 28 spline from S10, or late f body 3 Series carrier. I think? the only diff from A102801, and A102810 is the bolt patterns. Length callout is 28.437. It checks from drum face of flange, to c-clip end.

Since you've altered the stud length, i got nothing on that. BUT, the only thing i can offer is, the contact pattern on the valve tip should sweep as close to center of the stem as possible. If it moves to close to the stud, rocker tip can run off of stem. MESSY#@!%$ As for the stud, thread...

At your favorite salvage, Find a V8 car like yours, 78 to 87 and copy it. Rape it for all the brackets, take pics, etc.

I believe Sanderson makes a set for G bodies. BB3-Plain, I think. THET DONT FIT TALL DECKS IN THESE CARS. Good Luck. 8)

Where the oil is in the cleaner, should be by a tube going into 1 valve cover. On the other valve cover, would be the PCV valve. (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) It should be connected to a vacuum hose, going into the back of the carb, generally. Some tired hi mileage engines get carbon guk...

On the 388, given it'a a .060 over 350 with the 400 stroker setup. Screen name LIL SPANN, has a 406 build thread, with info considerations on that build. Such as small lobe circle cams, to clear any 5.7 con. rod setups. What rpm range do you want to run it? I look at cam catalog numbers to find...

Ive run into this a few times. If it's been awhile, what is ur plug life? Had this simple/confusing fix a few times. New plugs? Good luck.

I believe the quick, and best spent, would be a set of Hooker 2466 headers. Look them up. Even with poorly selected heads, the cam is trying to breath. The 600 might be a small app, now. But the headers would bring alot of what you have together. Stock manifolds choke the stuff you've built. For...

I just put a set of "pure muscle" arms on my 79 elco. Got em off Ebay, @ $225. I think. Seemed to restore geometry.

My son broke his after the last owner raced the hell out of the car. My learning curve on it was to take the time to paint a 1/4 wide very straight white line between the ends. Periodically check it for straight. (visually)You should see it b4 it lets go.

if I understand, your talking about the mount behind the front tire. I don't know about the size, but I believe there are 14 mounts, 7 down each side. You might get with GM on the exact PN. good luck.
