    Another cam / intake poll

    The best bet on a cam would be the GM 151 cam available through Federal Mogul. It`s the 327/350 hp cam and works very well. You may have others suggesting some off the wall brands COMP CAMS for example, but this one works and is hydraulic. Just use new lifters and springs. :upthumbs It don`t...

    LT4 Lt4 or a ZR1, that is the question

    Don`t bet on it! Where? From GM. Why do you think they don`t make that engine any more. The cams are the last to get any oil and are way up in the engine riding on aluminum in very expensive heads. Trick looking cars, lots of HP, but marginal on durability and they know it. :grinshot and now...

    LT4 Lt4 or a ZR1, that is the question

    ZR1 Vettes have a engine oiling problem with the camshafts. Never rev it up until it`s good and hot. The other Vettes are more reliable and also come in roadsters as opposed to only a coupe body style. :m

    Neon in the gills? Nah.... (Pics)

    Be careful, whether you like it or not, in the basic middle of the car. Amber should probably be the correct color or the bandits or road agents may ticket you.:)

    best paint removal methods

    I saw a car blasted with nut shells at one of the recent Detroit Autoramas. It removed every thing and didn`t even hurt the stainless. I would have had it done except I already chemically striped and repainted the car when I saw this proceedure.

    Lost our little friend today....our Yorkie

    Get another Yorkie as fast as you can. Don`t look at it as a replacement, but instead as a tribute to the memory of Cricket for providing 12 great years of companionship and joy. .:)

    Numbers matching engine or not?

    I have upgraded this piece everytime more HP was available. In 1964, new 1964 375HP FI heads and camshaft. In 1970 new crate 370HP LT1 350CI engine under the 62`s injection. The original correct FI RF 327CI 360HP engine with only 25,000 miles on it is under the bench stored away. :cool :bar :m

    Valve cover gasket

    The rubber gaskets are not what they are cracked up to be. But 1606 and 1630 performance gaskets by Felpro are a combination cork and rubber and the only difference is the thickness . VS30055C is Felpros cork material. GM also has a very good imprinted gasket with a steel insert used on the LS7...
