    Going to be changing the heater core, just some questions before starting the job.

    When I made the sleeves I tapered the end of them then as you insert them they straighten out the tube enough to go in, once you use a worm clamp it completes the "repair" (mine were really sad) They're just aluminium Brad.

    Going to be changing the heater core, just some questions before starting the job.

    New o-rings, Home Depot foam works well, I made some sleeves for the tubes in the engine bay to prevent them crushing if used with worm clamps.

    '87 Drag Car 7M awesomeness

    Works better on 7M's to leave the port slightly smaller than the header, the step acts as a reversion dam. Who built the head?

    '87 Drag Car 7M awesomeness

    For some reason I totally missed this thread..... :nono: WOW very nice so far Steven well done! Only 2 things I see are 1: you port matched the exhaust ports to the header? 2: Albert: you're not serious that Adjustable Cam pullies are useless are you?

    Getting more 7M revs...

    8300 rpm just about everytime I drove it, Ferrea Dual springs, Ferrea OS Valves, Ti Retainers, Shimless buckets.. Got the replacements Cryo treated no more failures. Rod Bolts would be next on the Hit list. Then Rods. Will all depend on how it gets driven, my car would see long...

    Arizona Performance oil pipe install

    The type of fitting and how it seals dictates what product is used. Tapered threads use Teflon to reduce the friction so they can wedge into the hole and seal, from memory there's a Nut/Olive fitting or a Flare fitting, they're installed dry as the Olive/Flare becomes the seal.

    gas tank drain plug?

    Just need to power up the fuel pump relay, much safer than a Gas Bath ;)

    gas tank drain plug?

    I'd just unhook the fuel line from the rail put a hose on it into a can then jumper the fuel pump relay, if you pull the drain plug you better have a 30 litre+ container ready as there's no stopping it once the plug is out short of getting a gas shower...
