    FloFit seat stuff

    Getting ready to purchase a Scat 306 rotating assembly

    Thanks for the reply. I was thinking that the block was what determined the one or two piece seal, but wasnt sure. The rotating assembly mentioned the two piece. As for the file to fit rings, i just dont feel like i need them. This is the first motor that i will be building and hopefully...

    Paxton Supercharger

    I dont use a oil filter on the filler neck on the valve cover. Kinda sounds like a ring issue. Perhaps the PCV valve is bad and boost is going thru it and blowing it out. Several years ago in pro-m's website, i read that they recommended to run a 5/8 hose from the PCV valve to the...

    Exhaust in Coolant

    Thanks for the info. Will keep this in mind:hail2: Differences between the Ford B51's and the Felpro 9333's. I did read about the "torque to yield" bolts for the B51's. Whats up with that?
