Hello,, I have 2 pairs ,, a 461 and a 462 casting ,, both are 1.94 valves...nothing fancy. I'm selling a pair and just realized that they were not the same. 461 are supposed to be 62 cc? and the 462 64cc. Most likely they will end up on a 327 with a Offy tri power. Opinions appreciated.. thanks....rog

My son is having problems with his carburated 350 stalling in his 75 pickup. He's got an Edelbrock 650 on it and when I observed it idling for awhile the fuel line was letting bubbles into the filter and eventually the filter was down to being less than half full. It looks like the fuel pump has been rece...

I'm in the midst of swapping over the correct oil pan for my car. Do you guys recommend I use sealer with the gasket or leave it as is? When I say "sealer" I mean "Right Stuff". I know that stuff is pretty permanent but I don't want any leaks. Todd

After hearing Todd's Waldron exhaust system last fall (that sounded more like a big block than my own big block!) I think I am going to have to upgrade my mufflers this year. I currently have Walker Dynomax Super Turbos #17749. I just wanted to get people's opinions on what mufflers they have used on a...

Anyone got a good photo of a 69 427 on a stand painted the correct colours? Was the harmonic balancer orange or black? Once you remove the large centre bolt on the balance should it come off easy or do I need a puller? If it is painted orange I wont have to worry about removing it. Thx Todd
