This guy is something else. Just a plethora of knowledge. Reminds me of my old man when I was a kid. Always had little tricks or making due with stuff because we had no money. And always constructed better and worked better than what you can buy at a part store. Ed never fails at bringing back memories from long ago. Happy I found this cat doing his old school thing on here. Just so much experience that kids and most mechanics today sadly know nothing about.

@@BarryTsGarage I built a motor for a 1977 CJ5 Jeep. It was a 343typhoon v8 amc. I never knew what the difference was between a regular 343 and the Typhoon. The motor came out of an amc car but I don’t know what model car? That typhoon had some wicked power. I didn’t really “build” it just put new intake and took the 2bbl off and put a Holly 4bbl on it with headers and dual exhaust. I know your very busy but I’d love to here what ed thinks of the old amc 343 motors. That would be very cool. Thanks. Pete from up in Maine.

Great stuff. So when I put the silicone on that narrow edge, I wait a moment and let the silicone start to “skin over” . Meaning wait just long enough to place the intake that the silicone has some rigidity. It’s tricky. If you put the intake on immediately the silicone does not have enough “bounce” to act like a gasket, if you wait too long it’s not going to stick to the intake and crush properly. Too early and you get leaks.

If those are aftermarket valve cover gaskets with no baffle that PCV valve is going to suck the oil out of the motor. I had a young guy do that on a motor I built for him he changed the valve covers. I knew what happened before I brought it over sure enough open the hood it had aftermarket valve covers with no baffles in them, the motor was well lubricated while braking in. Quart and a half low on oil.

Just a curious observation, but I'm not aware of ANY valve cover GASKETS, with baffles...😁 I DO understand the point made, about VC (s) not having baffles,,,no barrier to slow the oil consumption through the PCV line🎯

Barry T , if you had a GM that had a "hot soak" hard start, half of the time it would be the bottom of the float bowl plugs seeping fuel downward We mix 2 part epoxy on the after they're gently peened. That'll work for a few years without a hitch.

Manifold end gaskets we used to use 3m super weather adhesive to glue it on the block side only. Late 70,s rtv sealer came out and we took out the rubber seals and used only rtv. If a motor was worn with a lot of blow BY that is where leaking would show up usualy first.

If you have a hot air choke you have to have that center port open. In cold weather you need that heat flowing under the manifold so you dont have fuel icing in the manifold.. on the race track its beneficial to block that port

@@BarryTsGarage yeah I do have nice engines in my garage like I said a old man give them to me a backyard mechanic from west Virginia old school . Supposedly he have them from when he was young and kp them oil up they do turn nicely and a lot of compression low mileage but the 289 Hi po was from 1963 Ford tiger the 300 Ford from a old garbage truck in the early 60s heavy duty around 170 hp and i forgot the 340 engine i know was the. early one 4 barrel carb .He give history in my opinion muscle car pride and still today really small block but powerful from factory I know he tell me the Ford tiger was by factory stock a 13 second car that what he tell me.And he tell the 340 Dodge was a monster of a engine both of them higher rpm engines.But his favorite was the straight six 300 engine probably because he grow up in the hills of the Appalachian mountains probably such engine was used more and work more for the hills and he say the right combo for the straight six 300 Ford engine was the 4 sp transmission with the 4 sp with granny gears first gear and reverse gear and like I said he was a west Virginia hill boy breed and born in the Appalachian mountains imagen jjjjj 😁 He used to know everything and combos in engines and transmission and differential gears out there take care gd video ed sounds like him in lots of ways

Asking Ford to building them back .He always said the straight six 300 will be in muscle cars one day putting a lot horsepower and torque that nothing will stop them because people will love them so much that they will not want nothing else.He say that no motor in earth will touch his perfection in balance and endurance.But he always said that the perfect combo was the straight six 300 with the 4 sp granny transmission.He call it all seasons combo hills trails roads highway he say best mule in earth
