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...

If you already have the 273, why is this even a question? But if you don't then, for me, the obvious choice is /are; 1) a hi-pressure, alloy-headed 360 with a very modest cam. Get the pressure up to say 190, run an A833od with 3.73s for 75=2540 with 27" tires. or 2) if you want to keep the...

Just asking How high is that q-pad? I take it that the pins are pressed in.....

A friend of mine did that about 25 years ago. He had a lathe....Worked out pretty good for him. You know how much room is in an X-head? answer, plenty. the factory 340 pistons weren't up anywhere near high enough to fulfill their potential. You can make a pretty good Quench chamber with those...

(6000 x 85") / (1056 x 3.55) =136mph in top gear, at no slip. Then; (136/2.45) x .93slip= 52mph in first gear@6000 (136/1.45) x .93slip= 87 mph in second @ 6000 65 in Second will be ~ 4150. >85 is a 27" tire. Your tires are only 74.4, but I'll wager those 205s are gonna be toasted pretty quick...

Just so you know, I run a Milodon HDHi-flo, 8-vane pump, with the anti-cavitation plate. (and yes with a hi-flo 195stat) and it is underdriven, cuz my engine, with a manual-trans, actually does spend a lotta time at higher rpms. I run the 7-blade high attack angle bent-tips all steel fan on a...

My money is on the waterpump not pushing

plus How high are you gunna rev it, lol.

What!?, AI didn't mention supercharging? How smart can that program be?

Yeah, great idea, the governor is right there.

Governor blew apart, it happens. A pressure test will prove it. Easy fix but a time-consuming PITA, the tail has to come off. Or TP valve actuator-lever has fallen down. Pressure test will prove it. as will removing the KD linkage-rod off the lever at the trans, and not finding the...

That long-loop spring works great in my 11.1Scr alloy headed 367. Idles at 12>14* , jumping to 28* off-idle , then begins advancing again at 2800, going to 34*@3400. This allows the engine to run on 87E10 full-time, @207*F, without detonation. To that, >I added 22* of VA (sparkport); to run...

Next dumb question is ; what's the best/easiest/cheapest way to lighten my 75 dart-Swinger by 15%, so that the 318 will perform like she be 15% bigger. It's a trick question; best /easiest/cheapest, as it applies in this context, should never be found in the same sentence. EDIT 15% is like over...

They say I hate 318s so .......... install a 1.8 Jetta TDI-turbo and call it done, I hear those can go 500,000 miles. >but failing that, they also say you can bore a 318 out to 4.04; and stroke it to 4inches. Well; They say not all of them I got a 68 and a 69, one of them might work; call me...

I heard that 2-door Scamps are 108wb cars, like Dusters and demons whereas the 4-drs are regular 111s. IDK if that is true.

Or you could just run it NA with an A518, and 4.30s. I ran my alloy-headed 367 like that for 4 years with a 223/230/110 cam, at about 190psi, on 87E10, but with a manual trans. Car went 106 easy enough on 245s and 3.55 gears. I went with a GVOD instead of the A518, is all. After that cam...

I think I might like that Crutchfield guy. He seems to be the only guy that's worth listening to.
