Clay, (Warning. This post may cause revulsion.) Rather than going to all the trouble of pulling the camshaft out . . . couldn't you weld an old pushrod to the lifter body and extract the lifter with the pushrod? Desperate times, desperate measures . . . Or a slightly more civilized approach: remove...

I'm a bit puzzled with the heater pipes. They usually have one hose coming off the water pump inlet to create the flow. Is there a decent flow in and out of the thermostat housing? that's how i always do it, it also has some cooling benefits if other end is mounted in the rear of head as it pulls i...

SA regs are definitely way easier to work to than WA - the rattler with a supercharged 202 is JUST under the limit over here, and if you go V8 naturally aspirated the limit - depending on who you talk to - is 327 🙄🙄🙄 NSW can be no better, depending on the engineer. 341.5ci for a NA V8 was all I cou...

I can tell you now Miick it won’t be me buying one of them ….. it’s Galloway Engines in Pinjarra that are doing a run of billet cranks at around $4500 a pop :wtf: :wtf: :wtf: Hey Blacky, its only money :smile22: :smile22: :smile22: Greg Yep, better spent elsewhere 😃😃 like on forced induction :twist...
