Thanks for having your wife look that up Rod. My son decided to go ahead and order the .642 one today and give that a try. As I understand it that is the length. I would think the diameter would be the same for all SBC's? Could you elaborate on the 'washer'. Does it go between the button and the cam, or against the timing cover?

That sounds like a good combo. Is that on just fuel, or with a little juice? either way that's a respectable time for a truck.

I really want to build a 406 some day......been wanting to for about 25 years

For now I can get my fix helping my son with his
