Im planning a rebuild for a 91 shortblock Im picking up soon and was wondering if 272 cams will be ok with stock pistons and rods. Im only going for 490-520HP but I wanted to keep the valves open longer. My ideal goal is to be able to rev the motor to at least 7200rpms. I will upgrade the valve...
Very shocking story but its nothing we haven't heard or read about before in the past. I mean the Clutter murders in Kansas back in 1958. They killed the family point blank with a shotgun to the face. Even before that the woman who beheaded her husband and tried to hide it for years. We've seen...
Hope all of our L.A. Members are ok. I lost some family during the quake in Kobe. I've never experianced a Quake before, they say Houston sits on a lot of falt lines but due to the ammount of clay underground we don't feel them.
when is the so called "Big One" supposed to hit?
I need to get this out of my system, I currently only live with my father since my parents divorced when I was 2yrs old. Well recently I finally got my car running again told my boss I won't be coming in late to work anymore. So here I am about to head off to work when my father tells me I can't...
I recently got my head machined and had new valve stem seals put in the motor. During the initial start up you could hear this very audiable ticking noise. So I wanted to ask if this was normal on a rebuilt head, the man said it would go away after a few hundred miles, but I looked around and...
I see please forgive this stupid sounding question im about to ask. On Autozones website they have a timing belt pulley, and then timing belt tensioner spring.

Sorry for sounding like a moron as I said im new to this.
Thanks

By crank sprocket im assuming your talking about the crank area of the belt, never removed the timing belt, just did a head swap. It didn't do this before I pulled my old head but now it is.
Ok so idle problem was fixed the timing was off 5 degrees, all vacuum lines checked during the process. Ok so is there an easier way to tension the belt? My dad and I tried this morning and it still moves in and out while giving out this weird noise like one of those whine up radios.
Any...
No boost leak I've detected
Squeel is coming from idler pully from what I can tell my dad did a piss poor job putting it on that's why I said its moving along the cam gear slightly but that squeel sounds like its coming from idler pulley. Vacuum on boost guage is reading
-20mmHg. I can't tell...
I recently finished putting my head back on and finally got a chance to start it today however I've got two weird problems. First I hear this ticking noise coming from inside the valve covers. Second when my father revs the motor it wants to die right after that.
I already checked for codes...
I can do both ways you can make it change direction if you look at her feet just as shes at the center of the spin and then picture her going the opposite direction. its as simple as that
