    hey you AOD guys in here....

    All I can say is if you do get it get a different valve body to give you the correct 1,2,3 shift pattern. A stock AOD is not good but can be corrected. You can always convert to a T-5, its really quit easy. I am putting a Lentec in my Coupe and it will be running good with a 357 windsor.

    any one have pit bulls for dogs?

    I have owned 2 APBT's in my life. They are the strongest dog pound for pound but other then that, if you train them to be nice and respect all living things they are as good as any other breed but unlike a lot of breeds they are very, very smart and you need to exercise them. You should take...

    Junkyard 351c's or w's??

    Nicely said and I agree totally. What started this is are friend clamed that a 347 would outrun a 351W....thats just a crazy statement that needs to be put to rest. This guy thinks the a 347 will have more HP/TQ then a 351W just because of the lower rotating mass and that is what this is all...

    Junkyard 351c's or w's??

    You base everything off a phone call were someone told you this, were is the proof in that? I have never in all my years heard a statement like the one you have made about 347's and I have been around 41 years and been into motors for 31 of those years. A higher Rod-To-Stroke Ratio means the...

    Junkyard 351c's or w's??

    You are the one that came out with the statement about a 347 outrunning a 351 because of the lighter rotating mass and you "believe" but are not certain that it happened and you tell us to backup what we are saying, but then tell us to call Jay Allen, to backup your clam? Wow......now it's a...

    Junkyard 351c's or w's??

    How about you show us these results you are talking about? You are right when you say "it depends on what you want to do" but that has nothing to do with you saying a 347 is going to walk all over a 351 because it's a lighter rotating mass, that's rubish. It's plane and simple a bigger...

    Junkyard 351c's or w's??

    Those 69 heads are bad ass but they won't come close to the after market heads made today. You can always put a girdel on and you will have a bullitt proof block for a very low cash price.

    Junkyard 351c's or w's??

    What is with the weight thing? The weight really isn’t a factor when you consider the power gains and strength, if you really want to save weight then you should get an aluminum block. A 351W has a much better Rod-To-Stroke Ratio then a 347 which will give you more power. Most people do not run...

    mass air or speed density

    With SD you can tune your engine more precisely and get the most out of it. I am getting the Edelbrock Pro-Flo System for my 357W build. I give my engine specs to Edelbrock and the burn a chip for me then with the system I have a hand held programmer to tweak anything I need to. The system has 3...

    A/C problem

    You will also have to have the system vacuumed out and put in a new dryer, once you open the system...air gets into it and that is the A/C's main enemy.
