    Blue pill or red pill = 675 or 920

    bro, those 920's look tore up from the floor up. if you wanna keep it on a beer budget, snap on those 675's and ship it. there's no telling what could be wrong with those 920's-- janky guides, wasted seats, bad deck, cracked, and on and on. i wouldn't run those without a hot tank, mag check...

    Best intake manifold and carburetor for a 273

    eddy performer with a 500~625 carter/eddy afb or AVS 2 (and that's performer, not RPM or air gap) if you could find one and don't mind splashing the cash, eddy LD4-B would be awesome. **double check that you have the later heads** early units had a different bolt angle and take a specific...

    Anyone done a strong 400 build ?

    a 400 with moderate compression (9.5:1) and a reasonable cam (under .500) and some decent heads-- breathed on 906/915 or eddy's will put down 400+ all day without even breaking a sweat. a little more cam and some head work would see you knocking on the door of 500 pretty easy without anything...

    Best Electronic Ignition Setup for a 273

    be wary of the cheap repop and offshore junk available on summit and ebay. the yards are littered with them, but don't get a lean burn unit. a wanted ad here would probably turn one up. or @halifaxhops our resident distributor master would be a great resource.

    not sure what to think ??

    if those missing headlights are feeding twin spools... i'm oddly okay with this. otherwise, that's gonna be a no from me dawg.

    Best Electronic Ignition Setup for a 273

    273/318/340/360 it's all the same. factory electronic is the way to go.

    Sanden A/C Compressor to fit a 273

    that's a possibility, and yeah the bracket set up from late 70's thru 91ish would work with a little futzing about. the support struts attach to the intake manifold, so you'd need an aftermarket or a stock 318/360 from that time. the alt mount is different and frequently takes a different...

    Super Stock Hemi Cylinder Head Porting with Darin Morgan

    i have this holley economaster 450 that i got in a trade with some funky 8 bolt crank that i 'll be using as an anchor. do you think it's worth the upgrade to a 500? i could probably sell that 450, i hear you don't see them that often any more and they're getting harder to find.

    1960 Valiant Restore: advice welcomed.

    you'll get no argument from me there. maybe a high end alum. unit on the later 67+ cars, but for the early stuff nothing really fits as well as the stock unit. add in the uniqueness of the early early road toad and i can foresee just all kinds of pain in the assedness little fitment issues.

    Super Stock Hemi Cylinder Head Porting with Darin Morgan

    excellent. that's what i was hoping to hear. i'll port match them to this "torker" intake i just picked up. by name alone this promises huge potential in power production down low.

    1973 360

    they were both strippers: manual steering/brakes. both had 3.23's SG's at the time, the dart sport now has 2.71 for road tripping purposes (along with a borgeson upgrade). i've worked on both cars a fair amount over the last 10+ years, so i'm confident in saying that they're a pretty fair...

    1973 360

    i think it was 70 that they didn't make the val in a 2dr? i'm not much of a betting man, but i'd go a slice of ham that a 70 dart is several hundred lbs lighter than a 74 duster/dart sport having driven and ridden in both an early 340/727 dart and a later 360/727 dart sport, the earlier car...

    1973 360

    i didn't see one for dart, but it lists the valiant (so close enough) at under 3K so that's still 250+ all day without the nitty-gritty of 4spd v automatic, undcoating (+30 lb!!) or powersteering, etc.

    1973 360

    do you have a source on this? the reason i'm asking is that it's common knowledge that the later cars were heavier than the earlier stuff. so i'm kinda wondering how say a 74 dart sport with a 360 would be faster than 72 340 dart when it weighs 5~700lb more.

    it's fine. fffiiiinnnneeee. there's 60 with the drill. i mean, if you're really concerned with it, you could always get some white lith grease in the can and just aim it on in there with the little straw... the valve covers are already off anyway. then just hit the valve train with some WD...

    340 Oil Priming Question First Start

    this is far too much maths. just pop the rockers off and throw them on the bench and then lean on the starter till the engine bay, hood, fenders and floor are sufficiently covered in oil and hope that the starter lead didn't melt the jacket off and light off all the slick stuff.
