Mine cruises at 65=2240 (manual trans, in overdrive); quiet as a church-mouse...... until you stand on it, then, screaming all the way to 7200. TTIs, dual 3" all the way, turn-downs, and TTI-supplied, Dynomaxers circa 1999. The hangers are also from TTI, big ugly dual-strap, rubberized things...

I installed KB107 Hypers in my HO 367, back in 1999. I used to shift that thing at 7200 all the time. Engine now has over 100,000 on it. The trick with hypers is to run extra top gap, and mine are a lil loose in the holes. KB107s are 502 grams for my 360. You think a 273 revs fast? EDIT; {I...

and they use different BellHousings. and, the 360 will make mincemeat out of a non-A230 , in short order. Those were very low torque boxes. IIRC the A230 and the A833, shared the same BHs, at least in certain years, having the dual-pattern.

Here is a formula that will spit out an approximate tire height for you; {(Metric branded width/25.4) X (aspect-ratio X 2)} plus tire diameter. Example 185/80R13 {(185/25.4) X (.80x2)} plus 13= {7.28 X 1.6} + 13= 11.65 + 13= 24.65* see below *Metric sizes are rounded up or down to the nearest...

I have found that my Accell super coil, at WOT, will run on battery voltage just fine, a quarter mile atta time. I haven't tried it for any longer periods of time.

1.03s/1.08s will NOT be too big. With adjustable HD shocks, you will be ready to tackle anything the streets and country-side can offer.

Well then, with this new information, I would have taken a guess that the cam is on it's way out; Except you didn't mention top-end noise..

As to your shaky engine, my guess is it's carb related

ONE MORE TIME: Where the rotor is pointing to, relative to the #1 cylinder, makes absolutely no difference, at the time that ANY one cylinder is at TDC/compression! What matters is which tower is above the rotor at TDC compression, of the chosen cylinder, and where that associated wire is...

Yes I know you have a 4speed for it, and I know the little 273 can be fun with a 4-speed. But. if you go the performance route that most guys go, yur probably better off with a higher stall/auto/and big gears. As for me, if I had to run a 273/Mopar4-speed, I would order up a Commando gearset...

pardon my ignorance , but what makes those different from regular wheels.

Butte MT is at 5538 ft above sealevel. Unless you are planning a BB, or supercharging, that's gunna seriously affect your engine's ability to make low-rpm torque. Which is gunna seriously affect your choice of ways of multiplying whatever torque the engine actually produces, to make it an...

Well there you go, a 4bbl, a higher stall, gears in or near the 4series, plus slapper-bars are your friends.

For the street, which is a two-gear application, if I already had the 318, and if I didn't have something else; I sure wouldn't waste time and money looking for something else. Instead, I would just regear it, and stall it up some. This goes double if it is a high-compression unit. It's hard...
