50lbs?

hybrid in that it had later ports (but not as good as the 4.0 HO ports) but shaft rockers and was shipped un milled so we ended up with a very thick deck

Any more details on the hybrid head you mention?

Milk of magnesia. We use it on helicopters. Makes a magnesium dry lube when dry. (magnesium hydroxide). The plugs always come out without galling. Really. No kidding. I was about to say this. There was a thread on here a while back that had a similar discussion to this. But it was more toward antis...

BTW here is one made by Hy-Lube that is very similar to the system1 adapter, but a lot cheaper: http://www.ebay.com/itm/380919869134?ss ... 1423.l2649

Oh yes, there will be time spend with a die grinder on this.

Bad enough in the same car when something blows, I was talking to a guy in Florida years ago who had no foot from a flywheel explosion. This is a wake up for me, I hope to never see a cylinder head just pop loose on me :shock: This guy was a bit luckier, but could ended the same way: http://www.car...

WOW

I'm a newb and something seemed wrong at the 0:14 mark to me.

Are there better spin-on adapters for flow through the adapter? I received my Hamburger/Trans-dapt 3320 block adapter. It doesn't have the issue that the Earl's you have has. The center bolt is fed by an angled passage and the hollow filter mount bolt does not protrude into the passage. Its a prett...

I currently have the CV-745 remote filter mount which takes the stock sized 3/4-16, Wix 51515 for example, thread filter. Would it be worth going to the larger CV-746 that uses 13/16-16 threads with a filter that flows more? The block adapter will still be going to the stock 3/4-16 mount. Block out ...

System1 makes one that looks pretty good, but haven't seen it in person. It is also a bit expensive. I haven't ordered the Hamburger one yet, but I may today.

You are talking about a fitting like this?

Speaking of fittings, would there be an advantage (or disadvantage) to use AN o-ring port hose end vs. a standard AN hose end with an o-ring adapter?

I was just referencing the style of fitting vs. the forged sharp bend fittings.

Every bend does make pressure drop. Oh, I do know this. But that 5# seems a bit high. This is also why I also would go with the -12 An hose over the -10 hose. I would take Hamburger, as fittings goes straight up. There is a tight turn right from the start in Canton piece. Both models would have sam...

every 90 degree turn in the system will cost you a 5 # pressure drop that is why we feed the front of the main oil gallery on SBC instead of feeding thru the original oil filter boss. Even with a fitting such as this:? http://www.russellperformance.com/mc/hose_ends/img/610260_lg.jpg also do you wan...
