    302 4V Heads on a 289 2V

    302 4V Heads on a 289 2V

    Sorry, Steve I wasn't clear enough. Same carb, just different heads. I agree that the question is a bit unreasonable when the human factor is added. No one is going to drive the same after they acquire added horsepower. But let's assume super-human willpower and everything being the same...

    GT Valance Fit

    Casey, I had the same issue with mine so I whacked it with a hammer!:icon_pani Let me explain. I folded a an old blanket until it was at least 6" thick and placed it against the valance, then I placed a 2x4 over the blanket, and smacked the 2x4 with a 5# dead drop rubber hammer. It took a...
