My other block is in the machine shop, so I cannot compare side-by-side.
What does CA mean on the number?  I know it is 87, but lifter spider bosses are not threaded. It was flat tappet application, probably truck.
Does it look like lifter bores would accept dog-bones and spider?

I removed the spring in my 63 Fairlane after hydraulic conversion. Very happy with the setup.

Another option for the future is ET Lugs, they still have a tapered seat, but extend into the wheel hole for much more engagement.

thats what it uses

I'm doing a hydraulic clutch in my '60 Falcon.
Should the clutch pedal spring be removed? It's similar to the Mustang setup.

The 13.2" Mustang brakes are looking great up front so far!

Thanks

Mixture wise they look fine, but a high energy ignition can make that hard to verify.  The electrodes look rounded (could just be an optical illusion caused by the pics), which probably just indicates they have some mileage on them.  I'd throw a fresh set in it and rock on.

Thanks guys. Ya, those Comp Cams chromo rocker arms are top shelf, a thing of beauty, and with a price tag to show for it.

I'll do my best to get Roseanne done in time for the Bash. But she sure does like to fight me.

I used an industrial system developed by Parker-Hannifin.
It’s a semi rigid and flexible plastic air line with push in brass connections,it is very versatile and easy to install. For me it was the easiest to run the lines up at the ceiling and also a line up to the second floor where I have a 1/2 ton air hoist and sand blast cabinet

They look a lot better than mine do.
Is the engine fuel injected?
