My heads were redone. I probably should have mentioned that. I don't know all the specs anymore. I know they have hardened valve seals and some other valve work done. I'm pretty sure there are stiffer springs and the valves may have been enlarged. I recall him saying something about a port...
I don't have the original engine or quadrajet in the car anymore.
The Pistons are flat tops. I'm not sure about the reliefs.

So it appears the baffles my edelbrock valve covers are hitting my roller rockers. I can't fit tall valve covers due to clearance, so I will have to remove the baffles.
Has anyone ever used a pcv valve with an internal baffle? I've seen a couple sets on eBay and speedway motor sports sell a...
Thanks for the replies. I'm reading the rocker link now. If all else fails I'll remove the baffles and put an inline filter in the pvc hose.

I'm almost done with my 355 project. I finished adjusting the rockets and installing the intake last night. I started to put the valve covers on and ran into a problem.
The valve covers go on, but it appears the baffle is hitting where it slides between the rocker arms. I noticed a lip on one...
I'm in the process of removing my break booster on my 74. I've disconnected the master cylinder and have all 4 bolts loose from the break booster. I've removed the clip from the pin holding the break booster to the pedal. How do I remove the pin? It won't turn or push through. The one side has...
Engine runs much better after plugging booster. Shifts normal again too. Will a break booster off any other vehicle fit or is it corvette specific?

Well the evap canister doesn't appear to be connected. The hose to the fuel line is there. I plugged it back in, but the carb line is nowhere to be found. Which port on the carb does this go to? I have two on the front. One is plugged and the other goes to the vacuum advance. I'm guessing it...
Lol. You're in for a treat. The breaks are a bear to bleed. I'll have to double check which one to bleed first. I think you do the front one first. Otherwise you'd get air in the back when you break the front one open. I'll double check and let you know.

I'm currently building a new engine for my 74, but I'm wanting to figure out this issue before I swap engines in case it's not the old motor.
When I start up the car it runs fine. I can take it up the road a few miles no problem. However, once it warms up it wants to stall when you stop or...
Talked to a local mechanic and he said there should be a pipe plug in the hole. He said if I can't push a screw driver down it, it's most likely sealed and shouldn't be an issue. He recommended I fill the hole with permatex just to be safe.

Hey everyone. Working on my first engine build and a bit nervous. I have a 1982 Lt9 block and a set of 202 camel hump heads. I installed the head gasket on the alignment pins and the heads fit into the pins no problem. I torqued the bolts 25-45-65 ft/lbs in sequence.
I was starting to put my...
I know the are 30 over by the .30 stamped on top. They are flat top. Other than that I don't know anything about them.
