They have to be small but you can hit go advanced then manage attachments browse for the pic then upload. Or if they are hosted you can just post the link with img at each end!

Re: post em up....

Well....guys. I had to scrap project 496 for now. The machine shop found two cracks in the block and the rods are trash as well. I have already picked up a new set of rods but I am going to pull the plug on it right now. Pretty bummed about it...

Re: post em up....

I was going to ask if anyone was using the Profiler heads from Ray Franks, or the CFE heads? I think the port designs are the latest greatest on these heads. Another thing that is hard to believe, I have seen a 500" pro stock engine get a valve job and pick up 100 hp avg. The car picked up close to a tenth. I was always told when convertering hp from an engine dyno you calculate about 8.5% loss with an automatic heavy car. Its kind of a rule of thumb, too big of a cam, intake will make power but not accelerate a car.

Re: post em up....

I tried way too big of a cam last year and my junk would barely do a burnout! It would run good if you ever got it spinning but It was a turd otherwise. I would have needed to spray it to do a burnout!
