If you have a good coating of assembly lube on the cam, you should be fine regardless. It's a good idea to brake in a new engine with conventional oil. What weight depends on the engine. I change the oil and filter after the first 100 miles or so and then again at 500. Then if you want to switch to synthetic, after the first 3000.
My understanding was the engine only needed it for a break-in period that’s why they took it out. If I recall the story correct, it was a few years ago and it was my friend’s sbc but the machine/engine shop said he had to put an additive in specifically for the cam and for break-in and its not in oil anymore. it was to Harding the cam if I remember right.
if your going to powerwash an old car that your rating 5 of 10 be ready fof a big mess :hick: if you going to do it in the street i hope theres a drin near by. or niegbors are going to freak lol
these are good very reliable cars especially in the 5.0s
i have gt40 irons and tfs-1 cam love it also have a bit of stall in her maybe 2600 but let me add. before i put those heads on i did mill them and the cam did lika the compression (10:1)
Pay no attention to the Thunderbird when the redheaded Italian comes into the picture. I think you hurt her feeling you better bring home some STP and treat her to a soapy washing.
just plugging it in isn't going to make it work. you have to turn it on as a 2nd or primary monitor in the user control settings.
I did that and picture and video work great, but I have no audio. Audio only works out my laptop which is very low in volume. The HDMI cables are not carrying the audio or my laptop won’t let it. It’s an Inspiron 1525
Well, I came up with a plan to continue working on the car. Anyone want to buy an 03 Avalanche or 00 Kawasaki ZR7??? May post in the for sale section soon.
i dont know who feels better me or you lol most guys here want to see the car fixed
Last night I tried doing the same I bought HDMI cable because my lap has a outlet for it and so does my 42 inch plasma, plugged it all in and no worky. The funny thing is the computer makes connection noise every time I connected and disconnected it from the back of the TV. So I know it’s connected I wonder if I need one of those converters some of you talked about.
Lets not all forget the old philosophy, these cars and car shows bring people to the showrooms. How many dedicated ford fans are there today because of mustangs or and hotrod fords growing up now they buy the family car threw ford. That’s the angle of concept cars.
