it's hard to say without really hearing it.sounds like one of three things. low fluid level, clogged filter or the pump is going out. that whirring sound is the pump hunting for fluid. thats what my 74 t a did before the pump went out.gradually will get worse and makes that whiny whirring...

casting no. down by oil pan rail on side where the starter mounts

o.k. got a little heat about heating the springs. don't use on the street. get some good springs for the rear. convert to coil overs on the front if you can. if you're only running 12's or slower then just use the stock springs.when you get to the 10's then you can convert to the better set up...

o k bad advice. never use heated springs on the street or 90-10 struts on the street or 4 or 6 cyl springs on the street. you could lose control of your car on curves or bumps real quick. those are strip only mods on a budget. never lost control and never broke any springs doing wheel stands to...

get some good lower control arms that work in stock mounting location.( any brand is o k except those that use different mount location such as southsides etc.) get double adjustable uppers with solid mounts.( chassis engineering or similar) use 90-10s struts. 50-50 rears. use stock 4 or 6...

only need fan when the car is not moving. if it does it while your'e moving then the radiator may be clogged. especially if it just started doing it.does it do it at highway speeds. had 94 that all of a sudden did the same thing. was clogged radiator.pull lower hose and add a little water at a...

does it make the same noise while turning. since the driveshaft was o k with the other rear most likely not driveshaft. usually will have some sort of vibration with driveshaft problem. was the swap rear set up for a while.unhook driveshaft and rotate it 180 degrees and see if it still does...

pinion and ring gears are cut in matched sets. you should be able to find some good sets at a good price.just like a lot of parts most are manufactured by one or two company's for everyone to put there names on it.you should find a used set for 75-100 bucks. anymore than that just buy a new set...

May be too much compression for pump gas. use the race gas and see what happens. could also be vacumn leak causing lean condition evident by the surging.

float level may be set too high causing it to flood.

look on the block down by where the starter is. the casting no's are there. somthing like e5ae or similar. designates block decade. 302 351 etc. C for 60's, D for 70's, E for 80's.will also be code like 3j27 or similar. tells casting date of block. the first is year. the letter is month. second...

if you need to repair one with the heli coil go ahead. I have set of victors and some al neal 293's and they have heli coils in all the bolt holes. come that way.

Have seen same problem om 351's between cylinders 5&6. the conclusion was that the two adjacent cylinders fired in consecutive order but both cylinders were firing at the same time due to cross arcing of the plug wires. may also be due to cracked distributor cap.this causes detonation on one...

the strut fits into the assembly. you can use the assembly thats on the car.if you use the old strut remove it from the assembly. new ones don't have the assembly. the rod from the strut will go right in the hole of the assembly. may have to use some spacers on the strut rod

haven't ever seen rockers go out of alignment from floating valves. usually bent pushrods or bent valves. so if pushrods are ok then may be the valves that caused the adjustment to be off.

try to aquire a 9.5 deck dart block. they have a better hp rating and require less machine work to be useable.motorsport blocks need to be decked linehoned lifter bores honed and cylinders bored.most motorsport blocks to public use to be nascar rejects usually because of thin wall castings and...

have dealt with the lifter noise. machine shop sand blasted the block and the oil feed passages weren't very clean. needless to say never deal with that shop again. the oil holes make no difference as have seen them in random order even on chevy stuff. when you checked is the rocker loose. are...

you could do some bracket racing. put your car together, find out what it would do. make it consistent then learn how to cut a good light.if you get the light down then you could win .most tracks don't pay a whole lot. 200-500 to win in slow class. faster classes pay up to 1000 maybe more.some...
