Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: Front Control Arm U bolt

Rangers game is over & I haven't seen a response so I pulled a disc brake u-bolt & it's sitting on my toolbox. I could meet you @ the school in the am I guess (none of the Garland HS's are that far from me)??
I'll check back in early morning.

Re: Front Control Arm U bolt

Well, he called me back & found out that the 'new' u-bolts are for disc equipped trucks & he has a drum x-member so they're too big. I'll get him one of the smaller dia ones so he can get going again tonight.

Re: Front Control Arm U bolt

SCOTI came through big time great guy thanks again. I just could not see myself setting in a parking lot drilling through a frame with a cordless drill trying to get the 9/16 to fit.
