    Normal Operating Temperature?

    Hello again to all. After installing my rebuilt 383 in my 66-300 it took quite a while before I could get her started. Bad starter relay, fuel pump among other of murphys gremlins conspired against me but today was the day she finally fired. I let her run at the suggested RPM range to break...

    CAM degree Timing
