Does anyone know of anybody who is actually building and selling a crank Mandrel/blower pulley mount?
It's time for these engines to have mechanical injection for the masses.
Looking to drive a mechanical injection setup on methanol through a tunnel ram.
I've seen them made. I may just be...
This right here. That engine is exactly what I'm talking about..
IF I ever do it I would run a hyd roller with the 470. Multiple reasons I figure on the 470 (and the 451 might be better).
My thinking is that the engine could last an extremely long time. Decent piston skirts. Hyd Roller cam...
This setup has interested me for a long time. I know all about how the stealth heads are according to many sources on the web.
I see it mentioned all the time. Take a 400, stroke it (personally I would go 470) and slap some stealth heads on it. Put a factory looking intake and 383 badges...
I'm glad to see the outcome. If I see another stock looking 426 hemi or 440 six pack or 318 Dyno test I'm gonna nut up.
The two things I like about his channel is it's a lot of "stock appearing fun horsepower" builds.
And his attention to certaint details like leaks and such.
As far as...
I've taken a torch, heated the ends of the slots, and hammered them to 3/8 of an inch with a bolt laying on its side at the end of the slot. Little bit of grinding here and there. I believe I got it to around 32 all in and let it fall around 16 at idle. I doubt 9:1 would give issues.
It's in...
I'm aware of the b bodies being offered both ways, sorry if I mislead.
I'm really wanting an aluminum headed 470 low deck in an A body. I think a 67-69 2 door post valiant would be the hot ticket. It just has that look I like and it's a great platform. Unless I come across a cherry not back...
Ok. I personally like the look of a two door post. Like the intermediate B bodies. Such as a Savoy.
I also always thought they were stronger cars. Which would be a win win for me.
I was looking at some A bodies and came across a Plymouth valiant two door that looked to me like it was a Two...
Well, I've always read the safe limit on the low deck factory block is around 650 horsepower. And that's possible with some TF 240 heads and a SFT cam. If I were to go over to bushed lifters, the expense of a solid roller, and max wedge heads then I would rather put all that down n the...
So with the 400 block the 470 seems to be the street strokers with the wrist pins out of the ring lands and the extra support of the skirts. At least it seems that way for most, some always disagree. That's cool.
My question is with regards to the 4.5 bore aftermarket 440 blocks.
How much...
93 ethanol free is everywhere. My truck runs on it. It's at Walmart.
I was just wondering about it. The storage life of race fuels. May not be worth the hassle.
There's also two airports I could get an gas at. I'm actually 45 minutes north of lake Charles.
What type of fuel is easiest to store that gives the ability to make more power over 93 octane?
I'm just wondering if it's really any better storing a 55 gallon drum of something like methanol over just ordinary street fuel.
A street legalish, car that may get 60 miles on the street during...
I am hearing this, what I call horseshit, thing about bolting on a smaller chamber aluminum head will loose compression due to less heat in the chamber.
Wouldn't less heat allow for hotter tuning? More advance? Ect?
The argument is this "I want to build a "proper bottom end out of my 400...
This must be what I was thinking, and had my mind mixed up. So it's a yes on stage six heads with RB manifolds on a B.
So now another question. Just how much meat would have to be ground off the B manifold? Couldn't a manifold be welded up?
I've searched around quite a bit and read all kinds of conflicting stuff from it won't work at all to Trickflow is coming up with a manifold.
I am under the impression that the Trickflow 270 with "Max Wedge Type" intake runners wil work with a B block if using an RB intake manifold.
Is this...
