    79 CC C-30. Ls swap or redo big block?

    Im looking at machine shops in my area on the interweb meow. Weve reused pistons in neons with waay worse gouges from when timing belts snapped and bent all the valves. But i agree, it needs new ones. It needs more compression too. Sent from my SM-G920P using Tapatalk

    The white valve is the head with those ghey sleeves on it. The valve tip is from the other head. The keepers are in there. It just looks like the rocker wore the tip of the valve stem off. It ran, but shi**y. I was just gonna inspect and reseal the mofo. But i need too look deeper. The...

    6.2 diesel to 396 swap.

    Sounds to me like its low on fluid, that could be the delay in going into gear. The neck snap, and late 2nd to 3rd shift may be a bad or out of adjustment vacume modulator. Check all the mounts and ujoints whule you have it apart. I bet you will find that clunk. [emoji106] Sent from my...

    6.2 diesel to 396 swap.

    Dont be scared to rebuild that th400 yourself. Me and a buddy were rebuilding those and th350s when we were your age. Just get the kit mentioned in a previous post and give it a shot.
