    some bottom end questions

    LOL maybe they were cheaper for Clevite to purchase for reboxxing! Didn't know Mahle had any manufacturing here so I'm guessing licence built ACL's. My crank shop supplied the NDC's so don't know where they got them sorry.

    steering rack slack

    My "guess" would be the rubber rack mounts as there's NOTHING internal that would allow it to not recentre 2 Ducks. Failing that I'd move up the steering shaft and make sure the pinch bolts are installed and tight.

    Only counts in horseshoes ;) My guys recommend NDC's as Clevite don't do a 7M bearing these days and just rebox the NDC's from Japan, I've used Fedral Mogul in the past with no failures. This is a real pity as genuine Clevite 77's have some unique tech in the bearing shape that while it...

    Frozen gas lines?

    Fuel DOES go "bad", not bad that it won't work but bad in the sense they often mix low octane base stock with very volatile additives and it's these that evaporate first leaving you with low octane knock juice. I often have fuel sit in a car for a year and don't have any issues using it but I...

    some bottom end questions

    Hence my question..... He may have been right on the high side of spec on the 2's and a 3 may have put it out of spec. Don't know until Kenny answers but as it's such a small variation as you say it may not show up without a mic.

    some bottom end questions

    What did the plastigauge say for #3? Ok for a moderate output engine, wouldn't use them if you're expecting to go over 400rwhp though based on what my guys at the crank shop here told me.

    Yes, there should be a bunch of numbers stamped on the pan rail, they indicate the Main tunnel sizes. Every now and again someone will screw the pooch on the assembly line and have to change out a cutter and you get an odd size tunnel or two, the better blocks are all the same number but they...
