Hey guys. Quick question.
I'm replacing a rear seal rope to a rubber seal, but what do I do with this pin?
Cheers

What I have found since pulling it apart is 020 bore. New timing gear. Standard iron heads ported. RPM air gap manifold ported. extractors 4 into 1.
Sound like a v8 mainly with a bit of extra go

I didn't know much about this engine when I bought it except what they told me. But some previous replies jogged my memory. First thing I did was to pressure test the cylinders. So all going well until number 6 (the lifter in question)and no pressure at all. I did this twice and no pressure thinking that the gauge is not working, third time I tried it came up 140 psi and thought no more about it.
So is it possible the lobe was damaged at this time.

Yea I think I new that just needed to hear from someone else
Thanks guys

Hey guys
I had a problem starting up a 302 after it had been sitting for a while. Not sure how long, but was told it had new lifters and heads had been remanufactured. So after putting it on a engine stand and starting it up, it would only run for about 2 minutes and then stall. After pulling it apart and not finding any thing wrong until I pulled out the lifters all were good except one which is stuffed.
Any answers why this would happen will be appreciated
Cheers

Not yet mate definitely next on the list, just quickly going to try ground distributor straight to battery cause I have a funny feeling where I'm grounding it may be an issue, but after that going to chuck his dizzy on. Just have to punch my gear on it cause he's one just has the standard strength one

Thanks jca4 
I have since bought a second hand one which works ok but would still like to rebuild the original one.
So I will check some brake shops and let you know how i go.

Hi all
Need some help with a brake booster out of a XE. I don't want to spend $400+ on a refurbished one, so i'm after a kit with the diaphragms but can't find anyone that sells them.
Does anybody know where to find one. If not is there a later model booster that will fit for example XF or later.
Any help appreciated. Peter.

Well for $28 the Pedders check was good value. Turned out to be the LH eye bolt was loose, and they tightened it for FREE.
But the rest of the check ranging from adjusting wheel bearings $40 to various worn bushes added up to more than the ute is worth.
Cheers and thanks again.

Thanks for those ideas, but all appear to be ok. To me anyway.
Booked it into Pedders for a check tomorrow and i'll let you know if they find the problem.

Falcon with low mount air con at AFD 2016. Used a universal compressor with custom hoses and custom brackets.
 
Bolts into the head somewhere and just in front of the engine mount. And couple of other places I think. Hard to take photos of.

On a Chrysler in Adelaide the other weekend - electric powered compressor. Quite small and very tidy fit on inner mudguard. 
 

Found a loom at centre road wreckers out of a v8 which is a very rare find at a self serve wreckers
Also bonnet cable, C4 inhibitor switch and a pocket full of nuts and bolts to cover the $2.00 entry fee.
Cost me under $50 so it was a good day.

Not sure how the fire started most likely electrical as per your post.
No fire in the cabin but a lot of plastic has melt under dash.
I consider myself lucky as I pulled up next to a auto shop and they came out with a extinguisher and a fire station just around the corner
were there in 15 minutes. 
If 6 cylinder loom is the same that would be good.
