I gave Paul at Paul's converters, Salem N.J. 8568781449, the specs as described and he provided a converter that performs exactly as requested. Paul has a one man shop and has been building convertors for 30+ years

If you're turning 6400 /116 you may want to look into converter slip

Oz, You have lots of torque but I'm afraid you may not have the head to turn much more RPM I have a similar combo in a bit lighter car and am turning about 6500 @ 130+ with a 29x10 maybe a taller tire is in order. I am also running 3.91 gears.

What size tires and how much does it weigh?

3rd Gen HEMI and get the best of both worlds. Light weight of small block stroker, power of the HEMI you can even make it a 426!

I have a novel idea, why not run what you have and save this money for your stroker project?

I bought cheap broke a shaft then bought HS, Best move I made. They will fit fine with your beehive springs. Make sure you use thread lube on the adjusters.

I have mine set at 32 and haven't had time to really experiment with it. I have heard that these strokers don't like a lot of advance though.

I bought my kit from S&W it was OK for a race car but would have been a problem for a street car where you wanted the tubes tig.ht to the body. It also required a lot of fitting and cutting. When I bought a kit for a Dart i really thought it would fit with a minimum of modifications.

My 360 with 230@50 .488 cam ran out of umph at about 5500 and best E/T was shifting at 5K. Changed from 4.30 to 3.91 and went from a 27.3" tire to a 29 and picked up about .4 when all was said and done! Car laid down at about 1000' with the 4.30's and pulled all the way through with the 3.91 and...

"I don't think a window net is required until 9.99 (6.39) with a stock firewall/floor pan" If you have a stock floor and firewall no net until faster than 9.99/135 The rules that apply to us are listed in the rule book under ET handicap racing and general regs. You don't need to worry about...

(I usally finish my burnout in 2nd... make sure to try to release the line lock or break under full power and burn away from the box... I then come to a complete stop and shift into N... this gives me a chance to clear the motor and then pull back into first. If you dont go into N and you get...

Is one of the trucks a standard cab and one an extended? The tow rating is reduced by the added weight. ie. 4X4, ext Cab etc. I have an 05 dually 4.10 gears 14 -16 MPG towing 70K miles trouble free. I also do regular routine maint. It doesn't move unless its hauling or towing

I'm running a basically stock 904 with about 200 11 second runs and 50 low 10's. 727's are heavy and have issues not experienced with the 904. The CSR shield fits without modding the tunnel. Car weighs 2900

Those headers are not going to help much on a stock 318. Until you decide to tune that baby up a bit I'd just clean up the manifolds and put them back on.
