Re: FE engine question ?

you are so right -i was just out looking at them and the pedistle bolt holes are not round--their elongated on the bottom-- oil comes out of head up around the bolt into the rocker shaft--

i knew i knew how it worked -- but just seemed to have an old man moment--

back in the late 60s i raced a 390 [dirt track] blwe more than one of them-- you could buy a used 390 for 200 dollars in any junk yard - ready to run--

200 for motor -- weekly wage after taxes 69 dollars--

gas 24.9 a galon- cigs-25 cents a pack-- draft beer at local watering hole 25 cents-

dam im old --
