    So I decided to build a 360 for my Valiant :)

    If it was me and I had all the parts for a stock stroke 360, I would build what I have. If I had money to spend on top of that, I would get some TF heads before I would spend money on a stroker kit. Personally, I like a stock stroke 360, even though I can't argue that a 408 has more torque. I...

    Yikes! Might be time for a checkup. And yeah, probably cut back on the "sauce".

    Does it help that I had to look it up because I was doubting what I thought was the number?

    Oh no, I must have bought into the lies! I thought the bore was 0.090 smaller. :)

    Wide body

    I used to greatly dislike the MII's, but I think it was the too small wheels/tires. Saw a couple with 17" wheels and really liked those. Proportions just seemed much better. Not perfect, but good enough that I like it.

    Wide body

    I used have a Super Coupe (minus the flairs) and didn't even think of those. Frankly, I don't think it is a horrible option to springboard from. Don't think the F-Body parts would work, but it's an idea to start from. They had their issues, but I have thought about buying another F-Body more...

    Any Foxbody guys here?

    I want a 4 eye notch so bad. I saw one sitting couple of weekends ago and there is one sitting a couple of blocks from my house. But I don't have room and don't need another project so I just daydream about them. My recollection is that it wasn't that they didn't make many, but that they were...

    Control Freak Suspensions - Any good?

    My brother has both ends in his '71 Demon project. Only thing I can remember being an issue was it didn't have steering stops so his steering could have rubbed on the wheel (I think?). I know he had custom steering stops added to fix whatever the problem was. FYI, I tried to get him to buy a...

    Any concerns that the amp might get hot? Can't remember if they need airflow or not.

    1994 Dakota is getting this G3 in a few weeks

    Not sure I would use this motor as an example of a G3 not making the torque of an LA. MDS/VVT cam that isn't being VVT'ed, short runner single plane intake, and a cam that while it might sounds small on the dyno isn't really (based on my limited info). It is only slightly smaller than the...

    Classic Auto Air Install Experience

    I have a box out of '98 (or similar) Ram that I plan to mock up at some point. It's been done in an A-Body once or twice, but I don't yet have a clear idea if it impinges on the throttle pedal. But it is another idea. Here's a thread, but you will have to read through it, I don't have...

    Are you the only one struggling with this? I don't remember any one else talking about this problem. So strange.
