"Thanks Jan, good point! It is hollow for a reason."
"You shouldnt use a solid dowel pin, that hole is used for oil return from the head so the pin cant be solid.I have drilled out my own a bit to increase the return flow

"I have found dowel pins at Ace hardware before. "
"I noticed there are no dowels for heads in the block. Are those available somewhere? Maybe using suitable roll pins?"
"Started to rebuild the heads now. I will add those valve guide seals, even though there were not originally in 429. O-rings in valve stem are replaced."
"Hi Jason. My engine is still in rebuild phase. Will take several months before I am ready with it."
"Hi
my timeline with SMS is:
- got samples in May. Theybsaid material is available.
- made order for fabric July 27, got invoice and paid right away.
- big silence, so I asked tracking number August 26. No reply.
- asking tracking number again…"
"I bought new bearings with double groove and filed the chamfer to cap. Second groove together with chamfer create roite for oil to return to pan. I believe this is much more efficient solution than shimming the gasket."
"In this photo the bearing has two grooves but there is no chamfer between the bearing and the cap. Oil has no route to return to pan."
"Great to hear that no leak with double groove bearing. I will use it as well then."

1963 & 1965 Distributor
Posted by Martin McKercher on November 9, 2021 at 8:34pm 5 Comments 1 Like
Hi all
I am looking to have an aftermarket distributor made for these year models.
I have fitted a Holley Sniper to my 63' 390 & want the Sniper to control the timing.
This is in the very early stages so I am looking to see if it is viable.
I understand the purists might see this as sacrilgious but the Sniper has made my car soo much better for me.
I am asking to see if there is any interest?

Hi,
I really like the color combination of this 63 Eldorado (sold long time ago by Volocars).
The ad states aqua exterior and green interior but unfortunately there is no pic on the cowl tag.
Is the exterior color ’Frost aquamarine’ and interior ’Beryl’?
Or is the exterior green, ’Frost green’ and interior ’Emerald’?

Hello, would anybody be able to tell me if I’m using the correct gasket on my Rochester throttle body? It doesn’t look right to me. I’m not sure if the carb actually ran with this gasket because I got it used with no history. Any help would be appreciated …
