    Crank Evac or Catch Can?

    I am wondering which is the way to go on a s/c engine? (If it matters) Should I get a crankcase evac through the headers, or just get a catch can? I don't know if it makes a difference, I would think that the negative pressure in the block would help a tiny bit vs just a catch can. Also, how...

    My "No Start" Thread

    Son of a bitch. So I had no problems with the car, started up every time, runs, idles nice, re-starts without issue. I installed the gauge pod with a tach, boost gauge and wideband, all autometer ultra lites. Took the power from the wiper motor (fused, of course) and hooked up the green tach...

    There is a shop in town here that has a rebuilt '74 306, 0 km's with keith black Hypers, Scat crank, correct pan for a fox, electric water pump, MSD distributor and a couple of odds and ends. Is it worth it to buy for $900 (canadian)? So I would need to do a roller conversion with it, what...

    Koni Owners..

    Upper Control Arm Truths...

    So from all the reading I've done (mostly online) there are 2 different opinions on UCA's...one is poly bushings work fine on a street car and the other is that you need spherical if you plan on turning corners. So, before I buy some, what is it??? I am building a street car that will one day be...
