So I got my motor on a stand and I'm all set to slide my cam in. New cam bearings are in & cam spins smoothly. I have a bottle of Clevite Bearing Guard I was planning on using liberally on all my rod & main bearings and thought it'd be good stuff for cam bearings as well. Good idea or not? Also...

Dunno if any of you have run into this before so thought I'd share. So I decided to do a carb & manifold swap on my 383. The car has a/c and I'd like to keep it all intact. I decided to put on an Edelbrock Performer RPM I had lying around. It's a tall dual plane that I've heard good things...

Got the Eddy carb off my 383, put original 2bbl intake back on and original (but rebuilt) Carter carb on. Got the linkage sorted out and trying to tune the carb. Now the wrinkle: it APPEARS as though there's only ONE idle mixture screw....and it's at the REAR of the carb....and it's reverse...

Hello all! There's a disturbing growling coming from the rear end of my '68 Newport. It doesn't seem to change much with throttle setting or speed and is still there when coasting in neutral. I suspect axle bearing(s). So here's my plan: Rebuild the rear end with new axle bearings and any seals...
