<br>
The search isn&#39;t working with my browser, so if I&#39;m in the wrong section or if this has already been posted let me know...I have a 1969 Pontiac Custom
S Sprint 250 all original with 200,000 miles. I live on Long Island, NY and I&#39;m sure you know what New York City traffic is like. This has been my daily
driver for over 6 years now and I ran into a little overheating problem in the city. Since then I have slowly been dropping oil pressure, and I have a feeling... ]]></description>

two intakes = 1 and 4 barrel

			<link>http://sohcsix.yuku.com/topic/2154/t/Basic-OHC-maintenance.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ Can anyone explain the basic common trouble points of the OHC 6? Is top end oiling the issue or do the cam and followers where prematurely? If the engine
starts to &quot;tick&quot; can any adjustment be made to increase engine life? I have an all stock, 32,000 mi. 232 CI 1bbl that runs great, any maintenance
advice for keeping this engine running as long and trouble free as possible would be appreciated.

Thanks,

			<link>http://sohcsix.yuku.com/topic/2146/t/4-BBl-Intake-Manifold-Casting-Numbers-68-69.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ Guys, I need to know the casting numbers on the Intake Manifolds for a 68-69 Sprint Motor. Since I plan to change my Firebird&#39;s 69 250 1bbl to a 4bbl. And
as far as I know the 66-67 intake manifolds wont fit the 68-69 motor properly. Or am I just mistaken?
<br>
<br>
What are the modifications that I need to do in order to convert in to a 4bbl? Do I need to reroute the metal fuel lines, change accelerator linkages? Change
to the sprint spec cam since there wont be much of an improvement... ]]></description>

  I have checked all things concerning the cam, the sprocket,  the cam housing and valve stem heights. Putting bridge gage across the stems I get .867 to .849.
  What I did find is under some of the springs are washers of varying thickness. Some valves don&#39;t have them at all. I am a machinist and feel confident in
  all my measurements I have triple checked everything plus some! I followed webrodders help great info there. I think it would be of added value to have info

			<description><![CDATA[ I was always under the impression that 230 1bbl engines were around 9 to 1 compression but looking through my 1967 guide I find that ZF and ZG 230 1bbl engines
are listed as having a 7.9 to 1 compression.    
<br>
<br>
How was this accomplished as all the info I have says that 230 1bbl heads all had the same volume - 59.6 cc-

<br>
From Woodland&#39;s guide:
<br>
<br>
66&amp;67    230 1bbl -  59.6 cc valve length 4.90,    230 4bbl - 47.7 cc valve length 4.99

threads in the block? The front stud and the one at the #4 cylinder have fine threads on the exposed ends. The stud at the #2 cylinder has coarse threads
exposed. Is this correct or has that one stud been changed?
