Well, yes. That was because at the time, I didn't know what "angle-plug" meant. A quick lying, spying google search would have helped immensely at that time. #stubbornDeCaff.
How does one do that?
To Hell with that. I'll just mount the NIB radiator. I believe I had explained earlier why I DIDN'T do that in the first place.
Fan clutch is brandy spanking new.
Yeah cripes I'm lucky I even got as far as I did with that ridiculous setup. Let's a take a modern day laptop and teach it to talk to a 34 year old EPROM, then pretend to not get confused when nothing is comprehensible.
SORRY, but I'm doing my best here with something that I just don't...
How so? They are definitely SBC heads and bolt right on (except for the two intake bolts). All the accessories bolt right on, and, once adjusted correctly, the valve train works as it should.
Besides being a junk chinesium brand, what's wrong with them? Oh and yeah besides being angled-plug...
Alrighty, then. I'll post the results up when I get them. Thanks.
Ah, see now we're getting somewhere.
Water pump and hoses are brand new. New thermostat is a 195°. That radiator, I pulled out the yard some time ago from a K2500. It's specifically the longer one - 34". The radiator fan...
That's not normal? Running lean maybe?
Couldn't be due to excessive spark advance because it ran to 225 even before I advanced the base timing to 12°.
Fine! Can you teach this software-ignorant person how to do that?
I have not confirmed fuel pressure, at all, since I've gotten it...
Managed to get this far.
This is as I'm just sitting here idling, at operating temperature, after a "spirited" test drive. Things were actually going sort of ok. Seems like as soon as the engine temp gets around 225~ish, that's when the oil pressure tanks. That's also when the engine...
Well, technically, they are lol. Everyone tried to tell me that the intake manifold thread bores were "off angle", right out of the box. As usual, I didn't listen and did my own thing. You all were correct. I had to modify the intake to make it fit. Isn't that technically a faulty head?
