Just like clearancing cam bearings with an old slotted cam, but if it works. best of 11.24 at 119 mph 1.60 60’. 68 340 S Barracuda Fastback F.A.S.T [IMG]http://i67.tinypic.com/2mnnnnt.jpg[/IMG]

If we can buy the correct bearings, rings, gaskets and other parts, why can't we get the correct seals. Just can't see a mechanic or dealership putting up with this crap back in the day. Never had a problem with the rope seal and white side seals as the engines were designed for.
