    Steering gear rebuild - FAIL

    My pump started leaking at the shaft seal, bearings went out on it after driving 100 or so miles after it blew the sector shaft seal from a bad remaned gear box. i got the steering pump with the reservoir, figure im already messing with changing out the pulley why bother with one more thing.

    Tuning for altitude

    I'll be towing with the suburban, I'm thinking I might need to invest in efi to not deal with altitude change and fuel economy. On that note is the Holley Sniper kit better than the Edlebrock?

    Tuning for altitude

    So weird thing, stumble is gone. Been in the 90s last few days. Dont know if that has anything to do with it.

    Tuning for altitude

    It squirts pretty good. I'm wondering if it's the wrong profile for the weight of the vehicle.

    Tuning for altitude

    My bad, so it's a 350 Blueprint engine. 220 intake, 224 exhaust with .50 duration at 114 degree lobe separation cam. 609 heads with the plugs gapped at .45 per Blueprints recommendation. I've gotten about a max of 14 inches of vacuum after tuning with the 64 jets. Theres a hesitation at take off...

    Tuning for altitude

    This was driving 5 miles at 65, shutting down and pulling over and checking after a few minutes cooling down. Thanks I've been looking for a calculator. Blue Print recommended those plugs since they run the 906 heads.

    Tuning for altitude

    So been messing with a holley carb, I'm at 4500 feet and the jets that came with it are for sea level. After research, they said to drop down a jet size for every 2k feet. The carb came with 66 jets. I went down to 64 jets and it ran better. Timing is at 32degrees total. What do you guys think...

    Engine swap

    So started out with a 350 with a window. Pulled it. Started rebuilding the spare engine that came with it and quickly realized it wasn't going to be super reliable with out lots of work. Ended up with this from Blueprint

    86 Suburban 350 Swap

    So is this this trash? Cylinder 1 had carbon build and number 4 has a lip that my nail gets hung up on. Theres at least 2 more with lips but not enough to catch. Almost all water passages were completely clogged. Cylinder 1
