    305 Is a Turd Correct?

    Stock eliminator and roundy-round guys run 305's. None are cammed or set up to be street engines. People want to compare apples and oranges.

    305 Is a Turd Correct?

    Build a similar stroked 350 and look at another 100hp and at least another 80 ft lbs-100 ft lbs. + in a more conservatively cammed street friendly package for almost the same costs..... These guys built an 11.1 CR, 334 ci stoker,5- 7k rpm high rpm, race engine. You can build any engine the...

    Hooked up battery backwards

    back probing/testing wires etc, if you don't what you're doing, can also fry stuff. Just be aware.

    Hooked up battery backwards

    Just going to throw this out there, have seen the inexperienced do this and fry the ecm before the fuses/fuse links burn.(not chevy's only) Bassackwards voltage spikes don't do the ecm or other parts on the electrical system such as ICM, alternator diodes etc. any good. I would be inclined to...

    Believe i have a 95 with the wrong gauge cluster and steering colum

    gauge cluster has nothing to do with timing controls from my understanding but it could be ignition/distributor related, or possible faulty timing light. Go into more detail of what your doing /did. Bad Icm's or a cracked coil can act wonky as can play in the distributor.

    Motor and Transmission Mounts

    I would pick it up from the top side, on a lift there's some different avenues, under no circumstance stick a block of wood under the balancer and jack it.

    Can’t seem to get all air out of rad

    The cap often gets overlooked, the system needs to generate some pressure. If it doesn't it might not draw from the overflow at cool down either.

    Worst OBS mods

    You clearly get what I was trying to convey. You say stage 3 and you get oohh's, awwww's , and oh wow'sss, without understanding anything, It impresses people at the watering hole. If you say stay stage 2 or 3 cam it's not definitive and when you get on the phone with an actual cam grinder...

    Worst OBS mods

    Include cams, calling one a stage 2 or 3 is just modern interpretation of what was called the old 3/4 race cam, and wtf is a 3/4 cam that nobody to this day can seem to answer. Who determines at what point a stage is. lol Bunch of marketing bs it is. You need numbers and specs to make decisions...

    Shyt H-o-u-s-e chrome lol dude was probably also a long hauler with a Pete 379 floating around. i don't get it either but it's running joke amongst longhaulers to thieve a piece of bathroom chrome from a truck stop and mount it on the truck. Toilet knobs, faucet handles etc.

    Interesting post on parts and machine work quality

    Yeah, idk, they been cutting the machine shop out of any part sales and mark-up, and now it's an issue, I guess the resto shop will have to share some of that pie now. Can't blame the machine shop for not bending over backwards over the parts being supplied if they didn't make a dime or even...

    350 vortec choppy cam

    Sound is the wrong way to pick a cam, and usually results in less performance/goes slower.

    gear ratio help for a newbie

    Don't drag race your daily, find a toy. You break it and now you have no way to work either. Tired 10 bolts and 4l60's are not a good start. Start racing and you will find one weak link after the next until it's all rebuilt to handle it.

    Ever hear of engine degreaser? I hate working in a mess.

    Slight knock?

    Lol, kind of a stretch, but he's not wrong in saying a select fit build process was used, not uncommon to open one up and find .0006 bearings in it.
