Re: Mods for 350

And, seriously, do you have either a learning disorder, or is English not your first language? Let me rephrase in grammar you can understand: "u no spaek oar type gud"

He did figure it out eventually and sent us casting numbers. We all gotta start somewhere. Reading books while pooping is a great way to start.

Judgeing by this reply, you are either in high school or about to graduate; one of the two. Most of the guys on here and most likely in their 30's or late 20's maybe older. I have been following this post and most everyone has given you some solid advice. I think maybe you have not heard the answer you are looking for and do not want to hear anything anyone is telling you. On top of the grammar lessons, i think you should take on re-learning punctuation as well. You have a huge run on sentance; i dont know if i would even call that a sentance. The fact that you could not figure out how to get your valve cover off properly tells me you shouldnt be touching an engine or the car in the first place . I have an eight year old son and i think i would have him wrenching with me on my car than you, oh thats right he does help me .

Re: Mods for 350

Well you have more than one person telling you to figure out why your car is pulling to the left. Once you figure out why your car is pulling then you should start to worry about your suspension upgrades. Like one person said if could be a hung up rotor or something along those lines. Do you know what this means? Your asking what you can do for suspension upgrades, but it looks fine to you. Do you know what your looking for when you are inspecting? Can you identify parts? Do you know what a tie rod is? How about a ball joint? Bushings? Chances are that most of the items i just talked about could use refreshment (new parts).

We can understand them but you came and asked for answers and we asked you to type complete sentences and words. Neither was asking too much.

Generally when you want someones help the best way to get it is through respect not insults.

neat. hope you can figure out how to install them. I wouldnt personally let you change an air filter though. and BTW, WTF does a set of shitty heads have to do with a suspension?

Although to be fair, i wouldnt imagine a super high end suspension will be needed by the time you are done.. car wont be drivable. oh well, at least you can sit in the car and make vroom vroom noises as you touch your uninstalled heads.

got a full casting number?
i'd say on one hand that yes, they're better than 882's,...heck just about anything is.
on the other hand,...i'd be very leary of some $40 heads.
it would be smart to run them past a machine shop and have them check em out before you bolt them on. chances are they're gonna need work. they could be scrap metal?

i suppose it could be good "practice" if you just want to "throw" them on.

have you ever taken the time to get the casting numbers off your block? or are you ASSuming its a 350? the block casting number is behind the rear china wall, bellhousing area. sure would suck to find out it's not what you think.

so fill us in,...why was the car pulling left?

Impressive. In the same post you misspell "you" TWICE, in two different ways.. then call us idiots. That's a special kind of.... well, special.

Re: Mods for 350

This is how it works.Well for me anyways.I stumble across this thread going on for what looks a better part of a month.Why???. Well it is posted in the wrong section in the first place. Then I start to scheme through the posts and realize it is a butt grab between the posters and seems like the O/P isn't will to listen to suggestions. So this is how it is going to work. I'm going to walk away with 50 some yrs of experience not helping.You say why post at all and just let the thread die on its' own??.

Well two reasons. I saw some posts from members who have been on this forum for awhile and say your guys are smarter than this.Come on guys!!.

Second reason for the newbie's. This forum is a clean forum. So for the swear words,clean up your act and you won't see ###### that so much. Abit of advise to you guys.The Admin's and Mod's will tolerate this for only alittle bit and then act as they should.State you suggestions on topic and even if you disagree you made your case and be done with it.
