OK, it scares me to even think about attempting to use the Harbor Freight stands that I have. One is holding a short block 322 at the moment, which I assume is about 200 lbs lighter. So far it seems...
Xenia:
Would love to see some shots of your twin turbo 248!
Gary
Nothing. You can email if convenient to: gnoub51@gmail.com.
Thanks!
Gary
GH:
I'm reading a bit more about the EDIS setup. What a great and relatively inexpensive idea. Would love to see how you mounted the EDIS wheel and sensor.
Thanks again!
Gary
GH:
Help my pea brain. The Digitkey sensor is triggered by the EDIS wheel and the Megasquirt controls the output?
Aside from the coolness of all of this was there a measureable gain from an...
Presten, I saw your setup. Looks great. Do you have it running yet?
Gary
Not sure. I saw a 320 with coil packs and thought that was cool. I have to rebuild a 248 this winter and was wondering how challenging adding coil packs would be.
I was a Z06 Corvette racer and am...
I saw where someone had installed coil packs on their 320. It was one of the salt racer cars. There wasn't much mention of how this was accomplished. I was wondering how this was done. Can anyone...
Gentlemen:
I know that has been addressed here over and over so forgive me if I'm boring you. Anyway, my '50 248 will soon need to come out and I'm thinking about what to do. I've always liked...
Wrong dash for a Pontiac or Cadillac or Olds of the 40's. The steering wheel resembles a Buick and so does the dash and radio, but the crest on the door; door panels and seats are not correct for a...
PolarRoller:
I took your suggestion and am looking over the Miller engines. Beautiful stuff. It's too bad we don't build engines these days with the obvious pride of craftsmanship and aesthetic...
I don't have the engine yet. I was looking for a '70 and found a cheap '74. Didn't want to get it if getting to the stock 1970 numbers would be an expensive undertaking.
Gary
I am not at all familiar with these engines.Is it very difficult to get a '74 455 up to '70 specs? Is it a matter of pistons or do I need different heads?
Sorry for the stupid question.
Thanks!...
Ooops, showing my ignorance. I have a piece from Russ that attaches to the end of the crank so I can use a T400 with a pre-'64 -401. I was thinking this was similar to what would be needed for your...
Thanks Tom. I have a friend that may have an interest. I'll let him know.
I have a crank adapter from Russ that allows the use of a '64 T400 on a '63 or earlier 401. And for a stupid question,...
Tom:
Out of curiosity, how much are you asking for the setup? Is a different crank needed ('54 motor)?
Thanks, Gary.
Thanks. Is there an interchange area for 322's? I can't seem to fine one.
Gary
I'd like to update my '54 322 to '56 specs. My books seem to indicate that valve sizes were not increased until '57. Is this so? If this is the case, will 364 heads fit? I was under the impression...
Try Moores in South Dakota. They aren't cheap but there stuff seems to be good.

My 50 has only 1.

He did a 700 R4 with a 79 Cutless rear and air suspension. He has lots of pics somewhere here. Maybe a link but you should be able to find it.
Gary
GH:
A diesel turbo. Cool. Hope you can provide more pictures.
Thanks!
Gary
BigRivy: Thanks for that info. I'll check it out. I do see why there are so many SBC's out there. I mean the cost is much more to deal with this 248 than one of the cliche engines. I'm at the point...
Duke:
Any details on your engine setup would be very nice. Pictures?
Thanks!
