    Cam Quality...One Brand Better Than Another?

    GSCA's earlier ads said 'We sell only chilled-face two piece genuine GM lifters. These are specific Buick hydraulic lifters'. Ad has been altered to replace the GM with Buick. Wonder what a 'Genuine Buick' lifter is if not made by Buick (GM). Guess you can print anything when you're selling parts.

    3.8 or 4.1

    Years ago, I built a 400 SBC with a 350 steel crank, .030 to net a 377. A builder of Nascar engines gave me the insight on unshrouding the valves with a larger bore. With the same Crane cam, carb, headers, etc... in both Novas, mine walked off and left a 383 chevy in the quarter. I'm a firm...

    Replacement A/C Condensor

    Can't get the search to come up so I'll just ask. What replacement A/C condenser is recommended for the '86 T-type? My A/C has been non-functional for maybe 12-15 yrs. Will probably replace almost everything and use ES-12a as a Freon replacement. Any advise is appreciated...Thanks.
