I have gone to Walmart for all of my lead-acid batteries - their $140 24F EverStart Maxx has a free replacement 3 year warranty:

Best chance for any number tracing might be an O.S.I. book (not sure when Ford started issuing them).

Local to me (one mile from my house) is the TorqStorm Superchargers shop. They build their S/C's in house, and offer single and dual mounts. They are street oriented, not really meant for any racing applications:

"TorqStorm Superchargers® is a rapidly growing, popular supercharger for the average individual looking to make a significant horsepower and torque gain with their vehicle.

Capable of flowing 1250cfm, Torqstorm Superchargers® are able to support over 700hp individually, and over 1200hp with our Twin Supercharger kits!!

Self contained oil system, straight cut gears, ceramic ball bearings, 8 blade 75 mm billet impeller, and 3/4″ thick mounting brackets. We are able to provide you one of the most brute, forceful, and efficient superchargers on the market."

I always keep a closed system, by using a coolant recovery tank, and matching coolant recovery radiator cap.

Engine operating temperature is closely related to cylinder wall wear (among other variables):

My Sad Sack version:

My 1979 (special ordered new) F-150 4x4 / short wheelbase Styleside / NP435 / 4.11 Detroit Locker / 428 / Black Jack headers / FE rear sump 4x4 pan / modified Ford windage tray, requires engine removal for bottom end block service.

Pulled engine for a new rubber rear main seal (with nails). Trouble, frustration, impatience, but I got-er-dun. Reinstalled, started up, stream of oil running on the ground!

Pulled engine again - you guessed it - seal was in backwards! Grrr!

I have been looking to purchase an ultrasonic cleaning machine. I would like to get one deep and wide enough to immerse a Holley 4V baseplate.

I've been reading reviews for over one year. There are so mostly models made in China, and the reviews all seem to be from fake corporate sponsored ads.

I am thinking that I will need a 1 to 2 gallon reservoir, in a more or less square configuration. My budget is in the $100 to $200 range. I would prefer a US made commercial model, but they can be very expensive.

My main concern is to find a reliable, long lasting model. I am hoping that someone on here can recommend a model or manufacturer.

It sounds like this Y-block is getting close to an maximum, all-out build?

What do you think would be a max-effort? More RPM with an even bigger cam? 700 horsepower? Supercharging?
