TORQUE SPECS AND NAILHEAD WISDOM -- RUSS MARTIN RULES

I've got to say I'm humbled. In the last two weeks, I've had two nailhead experts indulge me and give their two cents about my T build.

Russ Martin gave me about a half hour of his time after I read most of the infor on his Nailhead Buick site. I purchased a bunch of parts from him because I wanted him to undstands how much /I appreciated his time. Sure, I could have probably found them for a buck or two less using
coupon codes and HAMB alliance vendors and what not.

But when someone gives you their time and great advice freely, I believe you should reciprocate.
I did. Polished Fenton VCs? Check. Polished Valley pan with PCV? Check. Custom alternator bracket? Check. Gasket set? Check.

Russ not only got my business for being a good guy, he talked me out of a polished oil pan that would have left a permanent mark on the first speed bump.   

And now as I tear down my 401 nailhead for a thorough detailing, the value of an expert like Russ become even more important. Becuase Russ does more than sell nailhead parts. He posts torque specs on his site.  Thanks, Russ. I'm sure I'll be buying more from you and sponging more info as I move to the transmission.
