May '24 Chat -- MayDay, a holiday or a cry for help?
1970-72 Monte's FTW. Customer on the route just bought a 1972 to rebuild. Another has a 1970 BB car with manual transmission --- very rare. Saw a gorgeous 1966 GTO in another customer's garage a few weeks ago. His brother has a 1958 Buick Special, 1974 Camaro and 1969 Ford F250 highboy 4x4...- TheBac

I shouldve bought a GNX back in '87. I'd love to find a 1966 Cutlass or 442. Owned a '67 Cutlass for a few years, just liked the look of the '66 better.- TheBac

Im an Olds purist, you just dont do that to certain cars. If he was building a clone, then sure, go ahead. Me and another coworker (who owns a 1971 Cutlass) both told the driver to tell this guy, for us, that hes a complete idiot. :LOL: Heck, all he has to do is sleeve the block and...- TheBac

May '24 Chat -- MayDay, a holiday or a cry for help?
Ive done a lot of dumb things over the years, but I can say for definite sure I will never be so stupid as a customer for one of my co-workers. He owns an all-original 1974 Hurst Olds Cutlass, numbers matching drivetrain. The 455 has a scarred cylinder, but instead of pulling the engine and...- TheBac

What makes a Ford engine tick
Here I thought this thread would be about poor oiling circuits or poorly designed oil pumps....maybe even incorrect valve lash specs, but no....it's about Mr. Diesel Marketing.- TheBac

Piston Tech Improvement
It may work on golf balls, but to me all their doing is adding potential hot spots to the top of the pistons.- TheBac

Head gasket build
Yeah, its a lot of steps to get it done. It'll be worth it, though. -

$25,000 *whistling* Whew..... 17 years ago, Keith Bachler was the first to 1000hp with Nasty Girl. I remember how difficult it was, how many times that engine broke, how many new parts and processes were developed on that truck. He spent so much money.....probably twice what Tony...- TheBac
