Re: Engine noise- stuck lifter?
Just armchair quarterbacking the issue, but the rev to 3K rpm seemingly resolving the issue, to me, indicates an oil pressure or quality issue. The result is a ticking lifter or lifters. Does the...

Re: Headers
That?s a really good price on those. Years ago when I bought them they were 450. Then not long ago I only saw them over 600. Did the OBX business go belly up and they are liquidating?

Re: Heater hose return fitting replacement
Well not great news on removing what was left of the heater hose fitting. It has pretty much fused with the threads of the housing itself. At this point, I am considering drilling out the material...

For those who have replaced the heater hose return fitting on the remote thermostat housing, did you leave the housing assembly bolted in place during replacement?
