Hi-Jack here! Anyone know what a Hemi Barracuda/Dart with a stick use? The Hemi Challenge cars?

There were lots of stories in the old days about a Truck 240 Cu Inch slant. Here is a blurb from a 1969 Hot Rod Engine Swap book. A 240 would be a .110 overbore with a stock 4.125 stroke. I have never seen any Mopar documentation of this engine. Lots of the slant racers are doing that much...

As long as we are talking crazy deals, here is the Green Grenade dragster.

Don't get me wrong, I love them. But they are a PITA to tune and understand how they do what they do. In the future I will post what I am looking at with them right now. But they look Italian Sexy!

So I drilled and installed a short roll pin. It goes through the steel and a portion of the bushing. It should keep them both happy. Pedal turns like butter now, didn't do that before. I have a couple of spacers for the rod end bearing that should allow everything to be snug. Then the slop...

I spite of my best efforts the insert hot a little hot and changed shape. So after I worked on it for hours I got it back together and it turns on the shaft nice. However now the pedal now can move right or left on the insert. SO I am in a thinking mode to get a good solution to an unexpected...

Small hole where the big hole used to live.

I have been working thru regular maintenance for a couple weeks off and on. Head torque, valve adjust, oil change, etc. I removed the clutch pedal to fix the slop in the master cylinder rod. I threaded the hole, put in a bolt and cut it flush. I will weld one side to keep it from turning. Then...

How do all of these disappear without any knowledge? Must have been forgotten and not looked at for a long time.

Why did he call a 70 Duster a Feather Duster?

Steve's 62 Valiant was for sale on a Facebook page a month ago. It was around $30K. It was a 2 door, I missed when he went from a 4 door to the 2 door.

But it could if you worked on it! LOL I just want you to start driving to some shows and such. They are just a burden when they are in a million parts.

Jerry, you would not believe all the crap I get out of slant six shafts. But I know you small block guys take better care of your stuff!

American Powertrain told me I need at least .100 clearance to the bearing.
