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...

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...

Hey everyone. I'm still in the process of painting my engine and getting the top half put back together. With warm weather coming back into the picture it's made me realize I'm almost to the phase of actually swapping the engine. The front end of the car seems really long. Does anyone have any...
