nope, I have no problems with steering or anything like that. my oil pan is actually up about 1/2" than the crossemember that the lower contorl arms bolt on to. My pitman arm is about 1" away at full lock one way because I switched to an astro van steering box due to pushing the front end forward.:tu:

Im just putting the finishing touches on my om617 swap and im looking into the alda now. I pulled the motor out of the car about 4 years ago when i didnt know what to keep and what not to keep. So if i understand what you guys saying the alda banjo get directly connected to the banjo at the rear of the intake? what else hooks to the alda on the IP looks like a vac line??

Just run line from alda to back of intake and cap off any others on the alda.
Mine t'ed off at the alda and I just caped it off Vette |

Hi corvette74, hope you won't mind but I have three Mercedes with the 617 engine and they regularly run at 3000 RPM going down the road at 65. I have also had it up to 80 didn't look at what the RPM was but no odd noises. When accelerating they regularly hit 4000 or a bit more. So 2000 is just starting to run.

1:1 would be 4 th gear in 5 th most of the 5 speeds are averaging about .70 for an overdrive ratio

clearstroker
I could buy a tech for this thing but just not that interested in one. As long as I dont over tech it I think it will be alright. Vette. |
