I just recently picked up 20 7120 cylinder head cores from my core supplier in Las Vegas. For some reason he hasn't been able to find any 0630 castings. I'd gladly purchase the later HO castings from anyone that has some laying around. Thanks, Russ Shop (626) 967-1000 Cell (626) 673-2203

Wednesday morning I spoke with Mike at Lopers Performance who personally ran the chassis Dino test on their Dyno Jet. Because the numbers can be easily manipulated by gear reduction, my first question to him was his numbers generated at 1:1 . His answer was yes.

A few of my thoughts to hopefully add some clarity and address some misconceptions. Ron contacted me and started this thread with the purpose of building a 4.6 stroker based off a late-model coil pack head with the goal of making good low-end torque with a emphasis on reliability and to...

Happy birthday David!

Be honest Troy. You missed the reach around hug from Avery Glad to see you're back my friend

Ron, Converting the later style cam and lock plate over to the earlier style cam that uses the drilled bolt spring and pin has greater advantages. The biggest disadvantage of the later cam is that nobody makes a double roller timing set for it. I stock and recommend the Rollmaster set. Also...

I'm sensing you're looking to do this on a budget and be a smog/emissions compliant. You'll want to stick with your Renix head and Intake with EGR provisions. If you're able to find a 258 crank local to you that would save you a few bucks. The area where money is well spent is going to a...

I have a piston and connecting rod combination that is a vast improvement over anything else in the market but is still targeted to the budget minded engine builder. My steel bushed 6.125 connecting rod is equipped with ARP 3/8 8740 cap-screw rod bolts with caps located by stainless dowels...
