    Your thoughts on CHP Street Fighter stroker kits

    personally, I would prefer the 351 engine. I really don't care for CHP. The last stroker kit I ordered from them required 3 slugs of malloy to balance the crankshft ($$), and I had to cut .020 from the tops of the pistons to get them at a zero deck height. I told them I had an early Winsor...

    need help: roller rockers

    It helps if when you are tightening the polylock nut to also let the allen set screw turn slightly as well. Sometimes it's difficult to get enough torque on the set screw with just the allen wrench alone, and we have seen roller rockers back off

    Pistons for a Blown 351C?

    With 10-12 pounds of boost, you might want to give yourself a little more piston/wall clearance than .001. :rolleyes: I would also open up the rings more also. I knew a guy that ran hypers with about 6 lbs of boost. It ran good for a year or so until he got a bad tank of gas on a hot day...

    Leaky Rear Main Seal - 'Sneaky Pete'... Advice please!

    It's a curved tool used to push out the upper half of a rear main seal. Check and be sure the leak is not at the rear of the intake and running down the back of the engine(I only metion it because I have seen it before).

    its time for BOOOOOST!!!!

    I'm glad it's coming along for you. I would be careful with those casty pistons, 58cc chambers and better than 9.5:1 compression. You'll really want to retard the ignition timing and limit the boost if you want to run on pump gas.

    Choices of HIPO trans?

    Yea. 393 with 10psi blow through from a Procharger. It a street legal 68 Fastback that I drive about 6K miles per year. I'll take it to work during the summer months, and down to the road course and strip occasionally. I was dying to get into the 10s last year and put on ET Streets when I...

    Aluminum Driveshaft

    You won't have any problems with it. 3" would work fine with that power. 3 1/2" will get a little tight in the tunnel, but it will fit.

    Choices of HIPO trans?

    My 3550 is going on it's 3rd year, with over 600 ft. lbs. at the rear wheels. I have wasted a couple driveshafts through on hard launches.

    Newbie question and Intro.

    Yea, there's all kind of body assembly manuals available. Advertisements in the back of magazines, bookstores, etc. Use GOOD quality fasteners and take your time, but I'm sure you know that having done the Broncos. Convertibles are a blast! Have fun building your 67, that's about my favorite...

    AFR 205's on a 393 Stroker?

    I think the 205's will work with the Stealth dual plane. Be sure and port match the intake to the heads. Alot of the efficiency will depend upon the camshaft specifications and the CFM of the carburetor to produce a strong metering signal.

    100gph enough to support 500hp?

    Only if it puts out greater than say about 8psi. A good pump for that application would be the Holley 110GPH fuel pump. It would do it with no regulator, and you can clock the housing to the desired position for line routing. Even with the 3/8" inlet fitting, if you feed it with a 1/2" line...

    Hydraulic or Solid Roller Camshaft?

    I agree with Dolfan87 on all accounts

    100gph enough to support 500hp?

    The 100GPH pump will do it. The 3/8" feed line will work(I'm assuming you're carbureted with the mechanical fuel pump), but it's cutting it close. It would be much safer to install a 1/2" supply line from the fuel tank feeding the pump, when you consider acceleration forces, temperatures, etc...

    Re-Tapping Sparkplug hole.

    I've taken a thin cotton rope before and soaked it in oil and fed it down into the cylinder to catch any debris, and then pull it out with a pick/ hemostats, etc.

    four bent rims & a warranty

    Yea, you should be able to go through Mustangs Plus, and get replacement rims. A frind of mine ordered 4 wheels from them, and one of them had a pin hole leak in the wheel lip. Mustangs Plus sent him another one, and he packaged the defective one in the shipping box, and sent it back. I don't...

    351w problems

    Try 69 primary and maybe about a 72 secondary. (I've had good luck with 351W and 69 jets up front for whatever reason)
