    How much should a basic 340 rebuild cost?

    How is that insulting you. I suggest he’s saying he can’t or won’t do it for that money. Damn you are a thin skinned baby. Sorry NC, I didn’t mean to step in your stuff but this guy is just running off at the mouth. It’s sad really.

    How much should a basic 340 rebuild cost?

    Exactly. You say I’m ******* people. Yet I don’t care. I don’t lower my standards to yours because of what you think.

    How much should a basic 340 rebuild cost?

    Same to ya! I never gave a **** about what you think say or do. I’m betting engine builders on here who do it every day and get paid to do it charge way more that you do. That means they are either screwing the customer or they do MORE. I didn’t say **** about the quality of your work. I said...

    How much should a basic 340 rebuild cost?

    lol. You are skipping ****. Or you don’t value your labor. Or both. Charge what ever you want. There is a big market for what you do.

    How much should a basic 340 rebuild cost?

    lol. My opinion makes you cry. Boohoo. Making the claim that 1k is what it costs to assemble a Pro Stock engine shows you are either stupid or trolling. Probably both. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate guys like MO and you because when the tire kickers and coupon clippers come in I send them to...

    How much should a basic 340 rebuild cost?

    lol what a classic. No one is talking about 1k to assemble a Pro Stock engine. Go clown somewhere else.

    How much should a basic 340 rebuild cost?

    No, actually I stated my OPINION and you got your mangina inflamed. You think your opinion is all that counts. It’s not. So cry to a moderator because that’s what you’re all about. You make my opinion an issue because you are (evidently) a hack.

    How much should a basic 340 rebuild cost?

    That means there are only two explanations for what he charges. He does the work and doesn’t cut corners. Or, he’s a scammer and he’s just charging you that much to screw you out of money. I suggest the former is far more likely than the latter, because when someone is putting THEIR NAME on...

    How much should a basic 340 rebuild cost?

    So you don’t gap the rings? Verify compression? Mic the crank and measure the bearing clearance? Degree the cam? That’s minimum **** that needs to be done. And it takes time. You either cut corners or you don’t value your labor. Neither one is a good thing. But it’s ok in your book...

    How much should a basic 340 rebuild cost?

    If you can assemble an engine for that you are skipping things. There is no way I assemble a complete engine for that. Double it. At least.

    Balancer?

    https://www.pera.org/can-your-crank-handle-1000hp/ One I have not watched yet. I’m sure it’s interesting. All you have to do is sign in with your name and email. It’s free.

    Balancer?

    I’ve been looking for a Rattler for a while. If I could find one I’d surely buy it. At one time I was going to call TCI and find out what the issue is and if they had a time frame for getting them but I just didn’t have the time.

    Did you sell your junker yet? Not even the tire kickers want that slug. If my **** was that slow I’d quit and sell out too.

    Why would you test slew rate on the engine?

    Update on total engine timing

    Exactly. People need to use the same terminology or no one knows what’s going on. I don’t know anyone who actually does distributor work that uses locked out the way the OP is.

    Update on total engine timing

    Only the digital 6 and 7 boxes that are programmable. No analog boxes have that, and not all the digital boxes are programmable

    Streetability????

    I’m working on doing more videos. I still need a camera like 318WR said to get, but the used one I bought was a pig in a poke so I got my money back and haven’t had a chance to look for another one.

    Streetability????

    Well, if **** goes well I can have the engine on the dyno in a month. The cam finally showed up, right before I had to go out of town. Two weeks ago now. And maybe more. Maybe I can go home tomorrow but I’m not counting on that until I see what happens tomorrow. But…I know I have at last count...

    Yup. It’s a trend. And it’s sad really.

    Right. Go drive your car and ignore the crowd who continues to whine you can’t drive THAT on the street.

    Ultra XP850 Almost there!

    You probably are on the booster. Just because I’m curious how did you end up with .032 in the bottom emulsion hole? I’m not home so I can’t run out and look at my notes but there have been some times where I’ve used just one emulsion. IIRC it happens when I get the MAB sized small enough...

    Ultra XP850 Almost there!

    What’s your tire size and axle ratio? You may be right on the edge of starting the booster while you are still into the T slot too much. As the throttle blade moves from the closed position to the top of the T slot, fuel flow from the T slot tapers off. And as TT5.9 said above, if you are on...

    Streetability????

    Not really. Either you can drive it on the street, in traffic or you can’t. These things dont have to be miserable to drive. They drive like **** because the build is wrong from the start and they you play ****-a-round with the tune up trying to fix it. Like running the cam 6-8 degrees...
