I am switching over to TBI and installed the new tank plus sending unit. Sending unit is below. I am going to run the braided flex hose tank to engine. How is everyone attaching the hose to the sending unit. I found some fuel injection hose clamps, would those be strong enough or is there a...

Has anyone seen a converter like this? I bought it and was told it was a Hughs 200-4r 2500 stall converter. I installed it and everything seemed good. Now I was going to sell it when a buyer asked how I can id it as what it is? good question. It used to have black marker on 21-25L on it but is...

Do you know if it is a bolt in swap or do I have to mess with the driveline or crossmember location

I finished putting a big block in my car and now the transmission in second is slipping (2004r). When I bought the car the tv cable was off and I am thinking was something to do with the bad trans. My question is for a big block just fun to drive car (lower budget) am I better off building a...

The electric fan had a weak motor and not pulling enough air.

Put it all back together and now all the cylinders are firing. Still runs a little hot 240-250. I put a new f-body radiator in it with a new high flow 185 t-stat. Do you think going to this radiator would help or is it close to the f body radiator. I have a Mark VII fan on it with nothing...

I pulled the head this morning. It all looked good piston, gasket, walls and valves. I would not think there was a problem as the head gasket and sealing surface didn't look like anything was not right. Only thing is I saw the 3 low cylinders were a tad damp on the cylinder. The carbon was not...

I bought a used 454 and put it in my monte. At first it would not start and almost all the cylinders did not have compression, even tho it was sold to me compression tested (took their word for it). Pulled passenger head and put oil in cylinders, now compression. Got the car running and no...

Can anyone give me a simple diagram for this?

What spring would everyone recommend for a big block 87 monte carlo with no ac, iron heads and no ac box. I am looking for about 1 to 1.5 drop. I am still buttoning up the engine but looking for suggestions. It has the ac 305 springs in it now.

Well I got it running. Pulled the cylinder head last night and everything looked good. Dirty and nothing really clean around the edges. Not much of a ridge and no abnormal wear marks on the walls. I dumped a decent amount of oil in that sides cylinders and put the head back on. Cranked it over...

Time to start thinking basics and I see my posts are getting a little confusing. Bought a used 454 that they said was good with compression and gave me the readings. (Like an idiot) I never verified. Sat a year before starting. When starting sounded right off the bat had no compression...

I am going to put some oil down the cylinders this week and see what I get on all of them. I do know a little about cars and damn certain I have the timing marks on after double checking them and installed the distributor right. I picked up a used engine that I got a good deal on so if I don't...

My leak down tester is crap. I am getting lots of blow by the rings I am guessing. May bad for buying an engine with going off the shops word that is compression tested good and I void my warranty with the cam. Now I am looking into rebuilding it or getting another.

Well I put it all together again.............. Checked Spark- Good Checked fuel spraying out of carb-good, old but spraying. Plugs not getting wet, removed intake manifold and port not really wet Thinking due to lack of compression it is not pulling the mixture in the heads. Going to leak...
