    AUTO TRANS Free Rev ~ Long but, Fully Detailed

    The trans is original as far as I know... but, I really don't. I don't know about the front pump thing either. Never seen that in the manual. Do you have reference for this?

    AUTO TRANS Free Rev ~ Long but, Fully Detailed

    During the course of the summer I got a car 93 FWD AUTO from a friend who knew little to nothing about these cars. He told me the trans was gone... It seem to make the slight shifting noise but never engages. Free revs in any gear. The car looks real good and runs even better so... After looking...

    Ya see, I thought I had all this figured out... as far as setting the motor at TDC and setting the cams "straight up" I'm not sure what you mean...

    Piston Choices and Compression PSI

    Timing base is good, knew how from my 67 Camaro Build... Miles on the new motor, I'd figure run time better maybe 2 hours at most. Actual load miles 6 total. I have the marks lined up exactly. Hard to say though AEM cam gears in silver aren't the easiest to make out. I'll post a pic later to see...

    Did Brian Crower 272's cause this carnage? Pics inside

    Egh... looks like he tweeks the Valve a little bit... OMG The only way I knew which way the crank plate went back on was by looking at the debris shadow on the surface of the plate... Tech Tip: The best time to clean your parts is after they are installed. :thumb:

    So I was just wondering... anyone know what type of compression numbers you could probably expect in a cylinder based on what ratio pistons you choose.Senario... Currently I have a Spankin new "Built" motor with Ross 8.5 : 1 @ .20 bore. In 3 & 4 I'm seeing a respectable 150 Psi on my Guage...
