    No, no issues with foaming or bubbles whatsoever. Your suggestion is right in line with my thinking. My plan was to pickup an additional quart when we go on Friday. Thanks again! (y)

    First Oil Change 5.7 Vortec Oil level on Add Line

    I was told it was a crate motor the guy I purchased it from. It was already installed when he purchased the car, so he's going off what he was told, and could not offer any additional info. There are no visible markings that I could see that would indicate who the builder is. The only thing I...

    It was a new sealed 5 quart jug, unless I somehow got shorted, lol! Thanks again!

    Engine Oil Filter for Chevy 5.7 Vortec

    They sure were the days Joe. Enjoyed reading about your Nova build. For a small block in a Nova in that era, it didn't get much better than a 327 with double hump heads and a 4 speed! It goes without saying that it was essentially the high water mark for Nova styling and performance. Those small...
