I put one in a 7.5 to 1 compression 440. Ported 452 heads. CH4B intake, 3310, Made 415hp and 465 torque on the dyno.

Had a poly 318 in it. Also covered in rat poo. I put plugs and points in it with a good carb I have. It purred like a kitten after smoking the place out for a while. I couldn't believe how nice it ran actually.

This has been the filthiest car I've ever worked on. Gravel roads forever. Grease on the K frame was 1/2 inch thick. Really preserved it though. It's super solid. Just a little crust on the bottom of the gate and the spare tire area. The back glass had been down for probably as long as it was...

I also pulled the heater box to clean and put in new seals, heater core. Scrubbed all the floors with purple power and a garden hose. A guy is making me a piece for the rear window crank. Replaced the front bumper with a straight one. Replaced some grille parts, lenses front and rear, a few trim...

So I found a candidate for thd 360. I picked up this rust free 66 Coronet wagon last fall. After completely removing the interior to clean out all the rat **** and nests, new carpet and a few parts, it's actually pretty nice inside too. It has 56k miles but was abused and left neglected for...

I've used a 2500 from Hughes Performance in 3 cars. Two gm one mopar and they worked well. Ordered them from Summit. Reasonable price.

You could retard it a couple of degrees from the recommended intake centerline. To close the intake a little later.

It ran really nice. Very smooth, and didn't require any jetting changes. Just a little timing adjustment. We set lash after a couple pulls and it gained 7hp. They were a couple of thou loose. Which tels me I could've used more duration. But im happy with 510hp and a nice flat torque curve...

I had it on the dyno over the summer. 510 hp at 6000rpm, very flat torque curve. Just about 9psi. We cut it off at 6k since the bottom end is basically stock components. I still haven't decided what I'm putting it in. But I do want it running in a car next summer.

I just freshened up a motor home 360. It too had a knurled snout.

Thanks for all the replies. I just bit the bullet and ordered a copper brass reproduction radiator. It was definitely more than 500.00. But my car is nice and hopefully I won't have to worry about the radiator ever again.

Could be a nice radiator if they had their **** together.

I bought an ACC from ebay. It didn't fit. The cap hit the hood. And the right side bracket was 1/2 inch away from the radiator support. I put one of these in my 66 coronet with a 440 and it works great.

Well Mr Ratrod, I hope you're happy. I just spent 736.00 on a radiator. Now go ahead and tell me "I told you so".

My dad had a radiator recored this summer. It took 2 months. I can't wait that long unfortunately. The shop around here that used to do it are gone.
