    Early C4 Rebuild kit recommendation?

    Hey. Does anyone know of a good quality overhaul kit for an early C4. It seems like the big guys (B&M, TCI) only offer complete kits for the 67 and later C4. I am rebuilding the trans pretty much stock for a 250-275 hp 289cid. I would also like to add a shift kit, I think TCI offers...

    Spark Plug Gap... head or block?

    Hi, I have GT40P heads on a 71 302 block for my 65 conv. Should I gap the plugs witht he head spec (2000 Exporer, 0.054") or standard 302 gap (.038")? I would think the head spec would be correct. But, I would like a confirmation. Regards, Jim.

    GT40P heads on 289... What rockers used?

    OK, a bit of a strange question... I'm building a low buck 289 engine. I got a great deal on GT40P heads... They are complete with valves and springs. Can I use the stock 289 rocker arms on these heads? With the stock bolts? Or will I have to buy either stock Explorer rockers or a stud...
