    My V8 crank & rods are done...

    I'm workin on a V8 project on the side, to swap into the V6 in a summer or two. Got my crank magnafluxed and turned, and the rods are done too with ARP bolts. Rotating assembly is almost totally done, as soon as I order some pistons. :)

    Casting #s that dont match...rebuilt?

    Okay so this may seem like a stupid question, but should ALL the casting #s on every part of my engine match? For example, I just bought a 351W to work on. The block says D4AE, which to my research is a 1974 Galaxie. But the rods say D6OE, which is a 1976 Fairlane. So has this been...

    new toy...

    Look what I just got! Rock on. I have the whole shortblock, it's all disassembled and ready to go in for machine work. I'll be keeping a mostly stock bottom end, good cam and some good heads+intake and I should pull 400hp/400lbft pretty easily.

    Advice on 302/351 Block Selection

    Okay so as a project, I've decided to build a 302 or 351. I'll be building it all myself (want the learning experience). I fully expect it to take a year or two to complete - my goal is 350hp NA (FI, no carb), and my budget is $4000 (over a couple years). So I'm going to start from step one...

    I was looking at upgrading the Mach460 in my car. I was looking at using some Infinity speakers (probably 6x8s, as they seem to fit). I don't have much info on the Mach460 amps and head unit. Can I use these...

    If you haven't deleted your PCV yet...

    ....this might change your mind. Pulled my upper off for a P&P this afternoon. It's largely in good shape, except for the #6 long runner. Check the last pic. This is from an early-year 2000, so it's got the hideously-overactive PCV (aka "turbo-suck"). Nothing really spectacular, just thought...
