    Engine Distributor Question

    I guess I shouyhave mentioned it’s an auto with Eli. My understanding was that flat-tapper engines could not use the distributor out of a roller engine. Thanks for the response. I need to slow down and get everything down Jim

    Heater Cores

    I’ve been looking around for a decent heater core for an 84 w/ac. All I come up with is $25 to $last time 60 Chines aluminum cores. No doubt these won’t last long. Anyone know of a good source or decent brand? Motorcraft doesn’t seem to make the HC5 anymore. TIA Jim

    Progress Thread S&B goes to Windsor

    I was running a FITech injection system, but whoever installed it put the 1200 hp version on. It dynoed at 280 hp. We just couldn’t get it to run smoothly because it was so oversized. It had 4 75 lb injectors. Nice system, bad application Jim

    Thanks, Dave. BTW, I follow your and Mikes threads, even though I don’t jump in much. Super nice job with Dobby. Y’all are wizards, to say the least. If you think God is in control it won’t matter much what the outcome will be. I’m just along for the ride Jim

    Well, my friends, it looks like I’m in for a tough time. The tumor on my trimengial nerve has grown and gamma knife isn’t going to do the job. I need two brain surgeries, either of which could leave me impaired if something goes wrong. If I thought the surgeon was that bad I wouldn’t use him...
