    Are Metric Drilled Head Bolts available?

    I'm looking to replace the bolts for the CV joints on the CAV. My spirited driving backs them out inspite of thread lock or plumber's glue so I think I have to safety-wire them like prop bolts. I've drilled 4 but went through 3 bits already. I looked at Aircraft Spruce, Pegasus and all they...

    Roush air cleaner

    I have one, fitted, never used. Wouldn't fit under the Cobra hood with a 460. PM me if interested. Thanks

    rear view camera set up

    I picked one up last week, price is up to $120. Still a good deal for a wireless, I think. I'm still figuring out the best mount for the rear as I have a euro plate in the plate recess. Probably have to cut the plate mount tabs and mount it through the pass. side vent area. Also, as I plan to...

    Replicas of Gurney-Westlake Valve Covers

    Thanks Fran, I'll try again. Simon, I think a little bit of relieving is required if yuu have roller rockers; not sure, though. Maybe Chris can let us know.

    CAV in CA

    Most states have the "right attitude" towards registration in that the description on paper and in the computers database should make the car more identifiable for policing purposes like theft recovery and such. However, DMVs in some states like California, New York, Connecticut, have required...

    Replicas of Gurney-Westlake Valve Covers

    I've received my set from Chris and polished the tops already; but they don't seem to fit on my crate 302, std. rockers? Am I doing something wrong? Otherwise, I can just pass it on to somebody if anyone's interested...no holes drilled yet.

    Good news. I wonder if they have pics. If they're Avon billboards, I'm getting a set.

    Nice! I, too, am a fan of this stable. I wish there was more of a record of their exploits. :pepper:

    Dzus Fasteners

    Bill, before you buy, how many do you need, and what type of receiver/springs? I have a few bags from building my Mini Cooper S racer. I'll send you some for a ride in the finished car. Ray:D

    Engines' skewed a bit...

    I've done a bit of that adjustment (sanding). Looking at the pan directly from the rear, though shows at least an inch discrepancy. I may just raise the left side a bit with a wedge or washers. I'm just afraid I'd twist things and compromise the integrity of the engine mounting.

    Engines' skewed a bit...

    Gregg, Being that it's a CAV (turnkey-minus) I would think the hole is centered. The edges are also radiused so I think the hole is in the mold. I'll have to put the bubble level to the trumpets, I guess. I'll use a frame crossmember as reference.

    Engines' skewed a bit...

    She's rock steady and only rubs when I open up the clip. I think it may be one of those things that the early CAVs may have had or maybe at engine install (I didn't do the install)...although I've basically redone most everything. It didn't look bad or matter when she had the Holley, but now...

    Engines' skewed a bit...

    Yup, Bill. LH side...but I DO have solid motor mounts and poly T-axle mounts. Washers may be too small to take the load so maybe I'll cut a length of steel 3/8" thick the size of the mount plate and drilled to fit the 2 bolts that hold it all together...:)
