BBC stud girdles

(1/2) > >>

crider:
Does anyone here know what stud girdle will fit BBC pro comp heads? I ordered one from procomp and it won't work on their own heads. So now I really don't know which one to try. I'm running out of time before winter is going to shut me down for the year

dusterdave173:
Call JOMAR  they only make girdles and they make the very best--they can advise you how to measure so they can send you one that works! When you get the chance sell those and get some different heads--the guides are yellow like bronze but they are soft as butter!! They will soon be sloppy worn--also take great care when screwing in studs--they use an oddball china helicoil in the threads on some of their heads-- it is very weak and a really goofball size--not metric and not US  Jomar is the best place to try--call them Monday--they are very helpful and they sell the Baldwin oil filters with no bypass too! Good Luck!

crider:
Thanks Dave. I'll give hem a call on Monday. I replaced all the guides and put good valves springs and such in them, but I will be in the market for a some real heads in the future

Frontenginedragsters:
I'm trying to be polite.
Don't buy Pro Comp stuff

crider:
You don't have to be polite for my sake. I know better than to buy their stuff too, I just put this motor together with the junk I had laying around
