missing cam

1930 called. It wants its truck engine back.

Does that thing have a handle coming out of the front that helps you start it ?

Ferrari and Formula 1 both run some pretty nice V8s. No pushrods in either

That's Ford's design, cause the factory manifolds/headers on my Mustang look pretty much the same.

[MisterCMK]

Yup, they have that little pinch in them.

I have both heads off and the pistons/block surface cleaned up and ready for the heads. I am working on tapping the block holes and will probably bolt the heads on tonight. Fucking autozone shit taps breaking off blow ass BTW

And the tap that almost fucked me

[thrash]

Wow that tap is nasty. How did that happen? Were you using oil?

Also, what's that a mechanical distributor doing there? I thought I was kidding about 1930

[MisterCMK]

Haha, it is a PIP sensor in there, so its only 1950s tech.

Anywho, it was just a shitty tap. I wasn't using oil, but it was not getting tough at all and then just snapped. That is what I get for being lazy and not wanting to drive all the way down to Sears to get a good tap. I ended up going down there anyway.
