Should these faces been polished our something? I see some dings and stuff that look like they will scratch the other rod face or the crank face. Before I put the rings on these, should I be taking some other action first? thanks

The way this sounds is I should just give up now DLC lifters? nitride the cam? Seriously if they cant make a relible product they should quit making them all together Am I doomed ? Is $600cad not enough for a cam and lifter set?

Ok I got a new melling HP pump for my 383 When I shake the pump I hear something rattle. that normal? the melling heavy duty shaft IS63. Is that stout enough for the HP pump? just a regular hyd cam here under .500 the valley pan gasket felpro 1214 has no crossover holes. Is that a problem...

I been avoiding this but I went out and had a close look at the cam bearings in my 383 I got back from the shop. The front one was off a bit and I wasnt really pleased but I walked away for a bit and today went and looked further...

I am still trying to factor in getting aftermarket heads for my 383. If I get angled plugs, is that gonna be an issue with hp manifolds or logs? I'd like to get the engine running and worry about headers or hp manifold later. Are angled plugs gonna be a problem? thanks

Thats insanity

I messaged the shop about my 516 heads and what valves he is gonna use. (I thought ferrea) He said: iron heads i would use an SBI or a SI replacement valve Am I wasting my time and money here? I'm really sick of Chinese junk, is that what these brands are? thanks

I am starting to stress out about how to do the rear seal. The crank still has the knurling untouched. The seal plate had these plastic inserts that look like they are in good shape. Should I reuse them? Does anyone know what the black glue was they used at the factory? It looks like they used...

I was thinking of using this cam CL21-224-4 with the stealth heads. I dont want to have interference problems with the L2315 flat top pistons. The shop said I'll be ok but I need to verify everything. Comp says 68 and up because different lifters. I read here if I go with the matching push rods...

Took a few quick pictures. I'm a bit worried anout this front cam bearing. Is it something to take it back for? $2800 you'd think it would be perfect. I was there all summer. lifter bores look untouched. not sure it thats good or not

and they didnt add any weight. It must have been close from the factory? I see one spot they took down a sharp corner that was there, is that ok? I see 2 other spots where a tiny bit was taken off and thats it It had std cast pistons and now has forged L2315NF +30 I have little knowledge in...

I'm looking at Dupli-Color industrial red. Should that be close enough? thanks

I just got these in the mail. The sealed power box seal was broken and some pistons dont have matched serial numbers. Almost all the pistons are dented or have a gouge and the 3 pistons that are odd serial numbered have a different machined surface on the bottom of the pin shoulders. Is this...

I may get the 516 heads done with 1.74 exhaust, is it worth it to go bigger? What can the bore take before it needs to be clearanced on the sides? Will stealth heads fit a 383? Also anyone know how much lift or valve size to start worrying about valve reliefs in the piston? thanks

Sealed Power 366NP Sealed Power 366AP Silv-O-Lite 1271 ENGINETECH P3083 others? Anyone know what piston wont be way away from the deck? What size pin is for my stock rods? thanks!

and it seems pretty gritty and lots of sludge in the pan. I was driving this thing like that... I thought I'd upload some pictures and see what you guys think. I pulled a main cap and there is a ridge where the oil hole in in the crank. I was hoping for a easy refresh. probably not now. also...

I had the pump out so I stuck the scope in there to have a look. Is this a nylon gear?

They all look like junk but...anyone got a preference? mine was pissing out the top of the band clamp, thought about squishing it wioth vice grips but maybe in a last choice situation I'd do that. thanks
