I came across this post someone linked me to and it peaked my intrest. Appearently this method works pretty well. I generally prefer a more polished appearence but the price is dirt cheap.

Does anyone recognize the mfgr. of the roller rocker arms in the pics? These are on the 402 in the Chevelle I just got and I don't recognize them and they aren't marked. They are at least 10 years old as that's when the motor was built. Other than that, I know nothing else about this mystery motor. On to t...

Tim, Hey buddy are you up this frequency? Are you still out there? I've sent you some e-mails but get no replies. My email address may look like a porn site so your filter may be filtering them out. Any way if you see this send me a PM with a phone number.

Can a two core radiator be converted to a three or four core or do you start over with a new one?

I havent heard anything from Paul Siliciano for almost a year now. Wonder how he is doing these days.

We need to fill the gap in years. Who's got a 68-69 we can include in the calendar? Chris R has done a great job getting all the other pics and cars done, advertising money is almost all in, and we need one more car, then we can give Jeff the go-ahead on actual printing.

I blew a tire on my way home from the race track last night with my camper in tow. It happened so fast that I got pulled in the ditch at 70mph. The attached picture sort of tells the story. The car and camper sustained some damage but I was able to drive home after a nice young couple stopped to help. Me and my s...

The Chevelle is running great on the street. But... as I'm coming to a stop the rpm drops to about 600 rpm instead of the 900 rpm I have set the idle at. It acts like its running on 7 cylinders, then it will come back to idle right where it should. Blipping the throttle doesn't seem to have any effect. Som...
