For our local club, we started using vinyl banners at our events, usually propped up on an easel or fence so they’re easy to spot. It’s helped a lot with people knowing who we are and where to find us. We include our club name, a little about what we do, and our contact info, nothing too...

Jordan is 100% correct.

I beleive that this is a bit far fetched as there is no superheated steam involved and further to that, hot caustic tanks are the norm in the engine rebuild industry for cleaning.

The poll question is as in the contence of #1. Like, works, don't like or does not work. The reason for the poll is to share with those that were not aware and did not know of what is being suggested in #1. All I am asking is for he voting to be honest and straight so that folks will be able to...

The main reason why engine builders use it as well as myself, is that it is very easy to spot foreign particles. To spot foreign particles on oiled cast iron is difficult because it is black. Aluminum engines are not painted inside as they are bright and foreign particles are easily seen...

Removing Engine Sludge. When dismantling an old or used engine, to be repaired or worked on, the accumulated sludge and combustion by products inside the engine are always a problem to clean at home. Most solvents and cleaning products do not work well and it is a laborious uninviting job to get...

The "Knockoff Wheel Puller." Bob has shown would be excelent for this job.

What works for me is: Leave the wheel ON, it must stay on and have the weight of the vehicle on it, remove the nut and put it back on upside down or use a non castelated nut just proud of the axle end and do NOT jack it up. Jack up the OPPOSITE side rear just off the ground, no need to remove...

What works is to do what you did, leave the wheel ON, but remove the nut and put it back on upside down or use a non castelated nut just proud of the axle end. Jack up the OPPOSITE side rear just off the ground. With a 4lb hammer hit the loosened nut 2-3 times square on the end. The hub will be...

I agree with rotorwrench and would like to add the following. All of these changes to the crossmember are due to the stresses that were induced into the engine by the continious torsional twisting of the chassis. The cracks were caused by the resistance of the engine to "torsionaly twist"...

The issue with the chassis mounted front is that it is solid. Any twist forces in the chassis will be transfered into the engine and will give problems in the long term. A three point engine mounting system is needed as all manufactures have had for a long time.

I can't seehow a lighter flywheel will have any effect on the main bearings. If you take that the flywheel weight is about 63lbs and that on an original engine with a 4.2 c/r the cylinder pressure is about 75PSI. The stock bore is 3.875 so the piston area is 11.80 sq/in which would give us a...

Are these the bearings not to be used for the same reasons as in the transmission.
