    Old wiring harnesses…toss um?

    Year One as well, all of them, old and brittle. After 40+ years I think they have paid for themselves. I know a guy who's car burnt to the ground due to an electrical fire....

    Why a Roadrunner?

    As RonLiv has shown above my 69 was the second car I ever owned and it was a dream come true. Love the stick cars. I was in grade 10 when I bought it in '73 for $1,750 and I still own it today.

    cooling fan

    I suspect you have a 22" rad support (20" opening) as this is a 383 car. Try to buy a fan that is not too heavy so you don't rob HP. A good fan choice has a metal body and thin blades that flattens out at RPM but is highly curved to draw lots of air at low RPM, just my thoughts as you...

    ENGINE OIL...

    I have used this oil for many years and I change the oil every year before storage. I try to get 1000mi per year but don't always make it. The weather in Alberta Canada is not the same as CA USA. The oil is specially formulated for flat lifter engines and contains primary ZDDP, and secondary...

    Aluminum heads

    I agree but you still have to remove the air-cleaner/carb etc. With a larger push rob opening in the head you can you it all by just removing the valve cover

    Aluminum heads

    You don't have to pull the head but you do have to remove the valley pan and if it was a two piece as suggested above you can remove the center section and have access to the lifters etc. I do think you can buy 2+ valley pans for the price of a two piece valley plate. I used the original and...

    Aluminum heads

    Found one soft lifter and replaced it with a matching Comp cam lifter, all is good. I had installed a Hughes Engines 1 Piece Single Plane Valley Cover and doing this does not allow you to watch the lifter action or easily remove the cover. With the cast heads you can use a magnet and recover...
