You will have to ask your dyno guy why he picked .048". Did he even try a run with your .063" gaps? In general, as you turn higher rpms, the energy per spark decreases. In a conventional coil and br

I replaced my corroded old pistons with stainless steel pistons from Sunbeam Specialties. They are very nice quality and should solve your problem if the calipers are otherwise in good shape. Bob

Even if you use these bolts on HiPo 289, Boss 302, or 351W rods, the rods have to be reamed slighly to fit. If you have standard 289 (5/16") bolts, then definitely DO NOT machine these out to 3/8"!!

According to our local Sunbeam expert, Loren Smith, the only part that was painted gloss black was the servo vacuum can. I guess they waited for a sunny day to paint those. Bob --Original Message--
