I finally got everything correct in my mind. I do have expert help, even though he is a Chevy mechanic! I put everything together and the engine started right up and after cam run in it is running great. Thanks to all that replied, the help was appreciated, especially since the car is running...

Now, If I have dot to dot and the distributor is in, the rotor points toward the driver. With the cap on,is the rotor pointing to #6 or #1 firing.

Sooo, if gears are dot to dot and #1 piston is TDC , with the distributor in the rotor should point to #1 firing, correct?

FYI, could be this was worked on before. Forgot to say the cam gear was 180 degrees out, the dot was on the top of the gear when the dot on the crank gear was on the top!! Seems number one plug was where #3 was? I did change it to the correct timing with both timing marks across from each...

Thanks, just ordered one, OH well, Thanks anyway.

Thanks, the car was not rebuilt as far as I know. It was an automatic 904 and the correct weighted flywheel was installed. the old balancer does have some cracks in the rubber insert so I am going to order a 360 balancer. Thanks again.

The engine has been in the car for about 15 years and I have had it for about 10 years. It had a 904 auto trans which I changed to a 833 four speed about four years ago. I installed a professionally built drive shaft that cured most of the vibration problems. Just not sure about the balancer...

The engine has been in the car for about 15 years. I have had it for about 10. It always had a vibration at high mph. It had a 904 auto trans which I changed to an 833 four speed four years ago. I did have a professional built driveshaft put in which solved a lot of the vibration problems. Just...

I am in the process of changing the cam in my 70 Dart. It has a 78 la 360 and I know it is externally balanced. The balancer has a smooth face and I have seen a video that shows a balancer with a half moon relief in the face. I have noticed that there is slight vibration at or above 70 mph. The...

Well, in my hast with my manifold I didn't notice that the gasket for a QJ was still on the manifold and it turns out it was over a spread bore plenum like the one in the bottom picture of the two blue manifolds. So, I guess I have a 79 360 manifold for a QJ or thermo quad. Thanks to all that...

I have an intake manifold casting #4100340-3. I believe it to be a 1978 360 truck manifold with a quadra jet plenum. It had an aluminum adapter with a Holley 750 df/dp. I bought it this way and am in the process of doing the seats and guides on the heads. When I took off the carb I was surprised...

Thanks so much Mike and Keith, I will probably be installing the Z bar within the next few days.

HI everyone ! I am new on this site, but have been watching for several months. I am in the process of converting from automatic to 4 speed. I have the hump cut in and just finished putting in the pedal assembly. I got my transmission from Jamie Passon and he set me up with the correct shifter...

Thanks for the welcome, will try to get pictures.

Hello everyone, I am new to the website, and look forward to using this media. I have a 1936 Dodge D2 that is mostly original. The car was painted around 1961 after the driver discharged a 357 magnum down and out through the front drivers door. The hole is still on the inside of the door panel...
