    Distributor Rebuild Question

    If you press on the small diameter internal part of the main shaft the cam and advance assembly should come off.

    4 speed linkage

    Only one I could find offhand. Original 64 A-Body Hurst shifter. Two above the cross over and the reverse goes below. Revers arm points up.

    64 Dart? What mounting plate are you using?

    Distributor Rebuild Question

    That is not a reluctor. It is the cam to open and close the points. It does not come off separately.

    [WANTED] Rallye gauge test

    Not as simple as I thought. I got these instructions with a RTE IVR3 solid state voltage limiter. So you need their limiter, or a constant 5V source and the pictured resistor to read full scale. https://rt-eng.com/index.php/RTE_limiter.html

    I don't blame you. Funny how some things get decided for you.

    360 vs 383

    Sorry, for the misconception to both of you then. I'm not interested in old magazine times or speeds 50+ years a go on glass belted tires. A lot has changed since then. I took it as unbelief that the Road Runner ran what it did.

    360 vs 383

    The short answer is Yes. Rebuilding an engine should be a well thought out process. Most people do not know the capabilities of engines. They simply have not driven them, modded them, driven them all over the country. Either is a good engine that responds to mods. If I am building an engine...

    360 vs 383

    You always need to know what you have. It is not a good idea to rebuild an engine and not bore the block unless you measure the bores and they will clean up with minimum of material removal. It is not like you can run 10:1 compression pistons on pump gas any more. So in either case you will...

    360 vs 383

    So you think a 383 Road Runner 4 speed with headers, slicks, milled heads, rejetted carb, and 4.56 or 4.88 gears will run 15 seconds. Sorry, I believe George. I knew him and there was no BS in him. He was 101 Airborn, he'd give you the straight scoop, just two Mopar guys talking.

    No real problem with a cast crank from Chrysler. I only have one cast crank, from a 318 magnum, all the rest are forged. It may never get used, but it might be easier just to use it with the Magnum as a throw together engine.

    360 vs 383

    OK. On a small block 360. I am not really down on them. I built more than a few really good ones for other people, but they are not the be all, end all. If you have one, they are a good starting point. Nothing wrong with them. I personally do not like the external balance, cast crank, and...

    360 vs 383

    Drag racing is an all out burst for say 10-15 seconds. It is hard on everything. When I build something I can't abuse it drag racing. I am a top end guy. I tried 4.10 gears once and it would smoke the tires all the way through 1st and 2nd the half way through 3rd. What was the point? Those...

    I'll go with RRR if HP 383 and tuned by him, but few of us would keep it stock. Even my 273 ran a 750 cfm TQ.

    360 vs 383

    I'm not a quarter mile guy. I never paid attention to my friends Road Runner. You know, back in the day anything in the 13's was considered fast. Drag racing is best done with a car set up to only drag race and goes to the track on a trailer. A street car is a whole different car. You can...

    I've had three 360's over the years, none great but got the job done. None were fast, but I did not expect them to be. Pick up and two B-Bodies.

    360 vs 383

    No, the 383 had higher compression, 360's never had much since they came late to the game and began life, like the 318, as a low performance motor. It wasn't till they retired the 340 and gave the 360 the good stuff in 1974 that it went somewhere. Some of us noticed though, 360's used the same...

    360 vs 383

    Not much difference from a 383. Same strong block, forged crank, decent compression. Early heads only flow about as much as a 360 small block. The recipe is the same as any motor, get the best flowing heads first, and go from there.

    An A-833 Manual transmission will fit without any modifications, if you have a floor shift body.

    273 commando cylinder head bolt torque specs ? same as 340 ?

    Torque on a fastener cannot be calculated. It is an attempt to get a desired stretch on a blind fastener. It is found by trial and error, and is also dependent on the lubrication. See posts #14 and #19 and take it to the bank. Perfacar also is giving you which head gasket to use. The most...

    I would listen to @perfacar. He is the real deal.
