I am not sold on reground cams unless you absolutely are having a hard time finding a new one for an odd application. My buddy just got the 5.9 in his 01 ram sorted out after a Hughes regrind failed. It flaked out bad on the ramps and base circle where the material was mostly removed, the lobes...

I have heard there is a check ball inline of the cooler lines that can plug up or stick and kill the trans. I am going to make sure I remove that on my truck.

Exactly what I was thinking when I did buy one. It also has an extra coolant hole for a sender/sensor at the rear of the intake which was nice for running a mechanical temp guage along with the factory sender as well. Came with plugs for the holes, seemed decent for the money, fit well. The...

Had extra gaskets laying around from other builds. 1977 block .020" over. 321cu in. I believe? Anyhow the intake came off of a 70 318, oil pan is a front sump industrial poly 318 pan flipped to the back(note how deep it is), oil pickup tube is modified magnum, factory style windage tray that was...

I agree, even though I did purchase a crosswinds for one of my engines due to the dual bolt pattern for a magnum swap, didn't want to go with the magnum air gap because of the funky thermostat/bypass location, as I was using the mag heads on an la. I have an rpm air gap sitting on my shelf for...

I have been wanting more power from my turbo draw through truck. I have a good 318 that I pulled out of my Dart, so am planning on swapping that in. I will post more pictures and info on here over time. Eventually it will get fuel injection, for now running this homebrewed setup. Going to really...

Yes it is smaller. Forgot my measurements though. My 360 had mag heads and had great low and midrang was not built for rpm, so not sure what it would take to bottleneck your combo.

Ok, was not sure if the bolt pattern was the same. I have a truck bell I picked up at Mopars in the park last year, I checked the #'s so that is good. Summit has a flywheel for 100 bucks so I will just order it.

I have a slant six in front of an np 435 4 speed in my 83 dodge 4x4 truck. Want to put in a 318 I have a small block bellhousing for the trans already. Will the slant flywheel work on a 78 318? I would like to know before I remove it so I have everything I need ordered. Thanks

Not getting into 3rd? Kickdown stuck back?

Awesome! Thanks!

It is a hydraulic.

Pulled a camshaft out of my dart's old 318 and was suprised to measure the lobes all were .345-.346" I have no idea how old or long the engine was put together. The previous owner had no info for me. I cannot seem to find much on it, I will check it with a degree wheel eventually, just wondering...

Yea, I started cranking it yesterday and it was turning over pretty slow. Never even got to the ether and jumper cables, as I had to clear out snow and then went snowmobiling. It is -26 here right now, so not going to even bother, hell I am not sure my tbi 360 truck will start in this, I will...

. I should install an electric heater under the carb pad for extreme cold. It has coolant running under the car for heat, but that only works when it has some coolant temp of course. It is -3 degrees F here right now, I am going to start my turbo slant truck to back a snowmobile trailer in the...
