I agree that problem dogs are most often traceable to problem owners, regardless of breed. There is a stereotype of people that are not capable/responsible dog owners that tend to get breeds like...

What are these things?

They're calling these cars '77 TAs . Looks like someone went to a lot of trouble to ruin them. There appear to be several different versions of front fascia, hood and fender vents. From the tire...

My general take is that if you live in Europe and you want to get into automotive luxuries or hobbies, you need to be higher up the food chain than in the US.

Don't listen to me or anyone else. The poll was fun to see what others think, and it was quite interesting. The fact that it was essentially even between all the options means that there is no...

Yeah I thought about that too. I was just wondering about the fact that the OPs motor is a stockish 400. So I thought that may tolerate a 2.87 1st gear with a 3.73 rear a little better.

Obviously, that's the set up that I have. I think it's near perfect. It's like having a M20 with a 3.77 rear gear in first and 2.68 rear gear in 4th. I think you're gonna love it.

Why are stick guys so not into shifting gears? There's a reason why there are 5 of them in a TKX. You're supposed to use them. Otherwise, just put in a powerglide and be done with it.

The choices you have it narrowed down to are so close I don't see any benefit from the wide ratio. Given those two options I'd go close ratio with the 3.73.

OK, so there are a lot of factors that come into play here. But blaming any certain breed and condemning it uniformly is not right. Too many other things to consider. People buy cars that are too...

I think I may have an even worse situation than just the E heads. The IAII block while it has a much beefier lifter valley, it also looks like it has worse drain back than the much more open factory...

Maybe I'm oversimplifying this but, if the Edelbrock heads don't drain as well, couldn't you compensate for that with a little more oil in the pan? What is the estimate of how much oil is pooling in...

That's exactly what my builder advised me to use with basically stock type clearances and a 60 lb pump. On my recent oil analysis, the viscosity was on the thin side for the stated weight.
