Hahaha thank god I am not the only one who buys another car because the other one has engine issues The vet looks the goods a bit of tlc and you should do well on it I had my EJ for 12 years then the bottom end started knocking in the wild 179 So rather than spend the money on rebuilding the engine I buy a hq one tonner with a 202 then convert it to a 5 speed t5 Then buy a 08 stato with a 6ltr and a 6l80 To put the 6ltr in the hq To put the 202 bottom end and t5 in the EJ to fix the knocking bottom end Simple

A felpro coated shim gasket is .020. The blue gasket is .043. A good 1/2 point in compression using the thin 1. I use them. They do work on a non machined deck surface.

For a hotrod, an engine problem is when rods are hanging out of it. Yours are not. You have no problem. You have a case of hot-rod-itis. Don't worry. A good dose of hp fixes everything. Ps- hotrod sb chevys are always better looser than tighter. You mentioned adding +1 bearings. Shoot for min of .0025. If you see .003 give or take, run it. A good, non fatigued bearing is what ya want.

Mate - a hard run of luck over this last month. Commit to the 400 - this 350 will be an ongoing distraction. Enjoy the Commodore over Summer while you build that 400 - focus on the future!

Sorry to hear about the 350 SBC Joe it's a kick in the teeth but don''t let it bring you down Mate don't give up on it if it's salable I hope you can get it back together again you never know you might get one more 12 out of the old 350 before it's time for the 400 can't wait to see and hear the 400 though I hope you will consider trying your luck with the old 304 Holden Commodore on 1/4 mile again she might be alright with some nitrous or a power adder like of your choosing just remember Mate it's a testament to your work and skills to both of your cars getting around so keep up the good work brother cheers mate Luke

Without a return that pump won’t last as long as they rely on fuel flow to keep cool . And a pre filter will help as would a regulator.

Redline /Eagle ignition lead holders , mount on valve cover bolts . Made from nylon . Available in different ign lead diameters . caution they can be $$$. Good product poor service since Redline purchased Eagle . Ignition leads by Aeroflow are cut to length . Hei end is crimped already . Shop around they can be had cheap . [low resistance leads ] Plug end heat proof socks can be had on Temu or similar for about 15$
@Joedennett693 ай бұрын
@paulthompson1654 i think i just need some socks for the plug end. It didn't make contact with the headders when i looked at it. It was number 8 at the back with the least amount of air flow around it. Just melted the boot a little.

hi If u look into the Holley red ,using higher than 4 psi fuel pressure drops by 80% wow ! But hey if your Afr readings have stabilized all is good . Even if u could fit a mech pump [later blocks can be drilled apparently ] they are expensive and there are limited quality units available . Circle track units are great . Flow is done from hp at a certain psi . 40-50 GPH at 6psi is a good unit . These may need a return line

Good to see old school sbc in a HQ. I've got a 350 in a HQ, wouldn't LS swap it if you paid me. The rolling start looks like fun, I have tall gears so hard to get it off the line. Regarding fuel, I put a 1/4 return line on mine with a regulator, fuel pressure a lot more stable now. I run a quadrajet, those things are fussy with it comes to fuel flow.

Yeah VATS is not in the ECU on a VS it's in the BCM , the BCM does not sync with a certain ECU so any will do , or just leave the ignition on for 45 min and it bypasses the " no start " and will fire up ! It's 2 hrs on the VT onwards computer.
