Don't know if you've seen the new movie "Ford vs Ferrari" but here is a great youtube video from the 60"s called Carroll Shelby Goes Racing. Shelby tells his story.

Geary - Did you do the toe-in yourself? My FIA use to float around at high speeds and would drift off every time I drove on top of a groove in the pavement. Looking at the front tires showed no...
Overheating problem solved. Got ride of $200. Eldebrock Victor 8843 high performance water pump and installed a GMB 125-1230AL (Ford Windsor). Purchased from Amazon for $43. and free shipping. ...
Was in the book store and picked up the issue of Kit Car Builder and saw an article that had a picture of Uniques yellow raffle car.
Hoover Tactical sold every single rifle they had. Even all the .22 cal. Heard a gun dealer in north Bham purchased two months ago 1.5 mil dollars of AR15 AK47 type rifles and after the shooting and...
This Edelbrock Victor 8843 water pump has been a disaster and a waste of $200. I did locate the web site for the original manufacturer GMB and have sent them photos of original pump to see if they...
It's my understanding that indexing the plug to pointing the open portion of the plug towards the intake valve so the spark is open to the chamber.
Tony - double check that the bolts will fit through holes.
They go in with the nut end facing the rear end. You have to turn the shaft to get each one in. Saw them off and twist them on a grinding wheel. I put a nut on first, then saw and grind and twist...
Tony - bolts are 3/8" x 2" x 24 threads. Shank measures 13/16". Not sure how long I cut off but you can use one of your old ones. I remember it's a bear to try to get a box end wrench on to...
I made up a set with long enough shank and cut off ends. I've got one on my bench and I'll check when I get home. Also used a metal self locking nut. I remember it's a fine thread. I did the...
Well I couldn't sleep at night so I took the pump off and opened it up and it's correct. First photo shows old pump on right and Edelbrock on left. Edelbrock uses a vented brake rotor type...
Pat - You got me confused. The lower heater connection on the water pump pushes water from pump to heater. Upper connection sucks water from thermo housing back into pump which gets pushed back...
I put my old thermo in pot and boiled. Use meat thermo and if began to open at 184 which was right. I got the top heater hose going to left side thermo housing and bottom is capped off (don't have...
I drilled hole in thermostat. Installed like other one came out (portion with spring facing towards engine). The backplate on old one was leaking and it started squeaking. For the 2 heater hose...
Installed new Edelbrock 8843 Victor series water pump on my SA 396W. Drained off 11 qts fluid before and put 12 qts back. Warmed up to 180 degrees and thermostat opened and temp dropped and then...
I got out my 5/16 x 24 tap and re-tapped the holes. Once tap is started, went real easy. Bolts now fit like a gloove. I guess Edelbrock needs to put in instructions (which by the way there aren't...
The pulley hub has engraved around the outside edge 24-8843 which means it's a 24 thread. I just got off phone with Edelbrock customer information network tech and he said sometimes when they...
Just installed my new Edelbrock 8843 Victor water pump. Put the belt pulley on the front and the 5/16 x 24 hex bolts won't fit, are to big. So I tried 4/16 x 24 and they are to small. Is ther such...
Cooling isn't my big worry. I've got the 2 push fans and installed a Spal puller on the inside. I talked to Susan at Southern Automotive and she said the only water pump they carrry for a...
That was a great show. What was the gold cobra with the square 4 point roll bar? Correct me if I'm wrong but when they were standing over the 289FIA car they said this was the only car that won a...
Thanks for the link Pat. Only question is if car heats up more when idling at red lights, would the "High Performance" pump which is designed for street rods be better than the "Victor Pro" circle...
My Windsor 396 stroker water pump is squeeking and leeking and needs to be replaced. Need a recommendation for a high flow water pump. Any suggestions?

Sure heart broken to see her go. Moma Jean was truly a southern lady. Always kind and courteous evertime I called or went by the shop. She treated everyone like they were her own children. The...
