going to be 17 degrees in northwest Florida this weekend, get your anti-freeze before it is all gone.

how much does the bore dia. enlarge from 70 degrees to 200 degrees F on a complete engine? do the pistons grow as much as the dia. enlarges?

can a 428cj be balanced without taking completely apart? something like cranking it on an engine stand and strobe lighting the flywheel? I had built the engine years ago , but did not have it balanced , replaced the cast piston with forged seal power . I now have a slight vibration now , I don't want to wipe out the bearings .

if anyone is looking to change the rag joint on their older pickup , the part number we found after six parts houses , I use that term loosely , for a 1968 f-100 power steering , was a dorman 31004 .

does any of the vendors  on here sell complete fuel injection set ups for a 428 in 67 mustang street car or do I need to go to summit or jegs ? would rather buy from the guys on here , thanks  ronnie

The sportsman categories in the Amalie Motor Oil NHRA Gatornationals will complete competition this weekend in Gainesville but without ticketed spectators.

However according to an NHRA statement, “In accordance with the recommendation of the Florida governor, NHRA officials are postponing … Top Fuel, Funny Car, Pro Stock, Pro Stock Motorcycle, Pro Mod, Factory Stock Showdown, Top Fuel Harley, Top Alcohol Dragster and Top Alcohol Funny Car."

These categories will compete at a later date, still to be determined. Current tickets will be honored at the rescheduled event or ticketholders may opt to use their tickets as a credit toward the 2021 Gatornationals.

Regarding the remainder of the 24-event season, NHRA says it “will determine next steps for moving forward as additional information becomes available. We appreciate the patience of our competitors and fans.”
