    1974 Dart 318 crank, but no start (Solved)

    Looks to me like your coil is wired into your wiper bal resistor which should be its own thing. Should be a second bal resistor for just ignition.

    Valve spring ID

    Can any of you guys tell what valve springs these might be? Comp 901-16? They came out of a 360 that had a factory cam with 974 heads that had these different looking retainers. I would like to use them with a 340 build running a melling Spd-22. I also have access to a set of Hughes 1110p...

    Melted ground wire

    I have update. Looks like my starter wire was shorting out on my center link. One of two thing happened and I’ll have to further investigate when it’s little warmer. center link was always rubbing wire, finally wore hole thru casing and shorted it out or that fancy McRobb starter which is...

    Melted ground wire

    A You got me wondering if the starter wire got melted to exhaust. In the dark last night I didn’t take notice. I’ll check when I get home from work.

    Melted ground wire

    Understood, i will add one at firewall but based on voltmeter clarification. I definitely am seeing like 24.5 v in 200 dc (flat line w/ dashed line under it in black) and 13.5v in 20 on this 72 cuda and my 69 barracuda is 13.5/13.50 in both settings. Something is off there that I can’t wrap my...

    Melted ground wire

    Just the one from battery to rad support. I assumed since my 69 has no ground at battery to rad but does have one engine to firewall that Chrysler moved it sometime in 1970, also mancini carries firewall grounds only to 69, nothing later. But again I was assuming

    Melted ground wire

    I thought that initially but there is a 200 in red also which I figured was a/c Also doesn’t explain why my 69 barracuda read 13.5 or 13.50 in both 200 and 20 in black

    Little backround. Picked Up a 72 cuda 340/auto no motor no trans. Probably sat for 30 yrs, who knows. Already had 72 340 in my garage so I had to have it and the price was right. So I picked up 73 727 off facebook from an 360 charger and did my first auto rebuild. As I rebuild the 340 I...

    340 rings

    Copy that and thanks. While I go you guys around how about bearings? On Mancini website for mains I see clevite 77 p series and sealed power being the cheaper. Building street motor, what do I need? Not afraid to buy more expensive ones. Same with rod bearing, they list clevite 77 p series...
