perk Gearhead Posts: 338 From: Staley,nc Registered: Sep 2000	posted 05-28-2001 02:48 PM Well guys,since my last post about piston slap,I've been able to find someone with more knowledge than I have. It seems it very well may be the main rod bearings.The noise is getting worse.Anyway,, I've bought another 351c 2v and I'm getting ready to pull and take the old 1 apart. Any sugestions for a low budget build up?? I've got the KB pistons from the old engine, 2 cams with very little miles or useage,280H and a 292H (Crane Cams). 2 intakes,holley St.dominator and Weind X-celarator. Use any of it or junk it all ??? 8.59 was the best we ran with the 292h and the X-celarator,running 4.11 gears. thanks guys,,,,,,perk IP: Logged

It's a whole lot easier (and cheaper) to put bearings in a motor than build any low budget deal. Just my opinion. IP: Logged
