ok ...i knew that idiot car show from Cuba would not last more than 2 or 3 episodes .. and it dint take long for me to realize that the fast and loud crowd dint know their butt from a hole in the ground .. they built a 67 fairlane GT with a " 289 " big block in it .. now i have watched this episode of misfit garage where they are doing a 64 red on red ford galixie and the engine has a miss .. they determine that one cylinder has low compression . something is not letting the valve close .. then they determine that a slightly bent push rod is the problem .. i say bull .. a slightly bent push rod on that engine ( non adjustable valve train ) might give you a ticking noise but not a loss of compression .. these stupid made for TV car shows are killing me ...

It's all relative, Hoss; compared to an average 4 cylinder rice burner, a Windsor is a big block. I agree about the inanity of most of these shows, though, but I gave them all up when we gave up our cable tv.
