I used hardener, hints the 8.1.1 8 parts paint, 1 part reducer, and 1 part hardener.

The problem I am having with this stuff is that it scratches so so easy. Just touching my finger on the paint it scratches. I mixed mine 8.1.1 and it has been two weeks. I am probably going to just cut and buff mine.

Do I need new valve springs to run the cams listed above? What stall convertor should I look into?

Kind of reviving a old thread here but curious about what cam to go with a pretty stock 360. The motor came out of a 1979 Chrysler Newport. It is going my international short bed with a dodge Dakota frame. The 360 now has a edelbrock dual plane aluminum intake, 600CFM Holley vacuum secondary...

A833s are all 1:1 straight thru in fourth gear. Hiway rpm varies with tire size and speed. With 3.73s, and 27s you get 65=~3000. Every 1% difference in tire size will be 1% difference in rpm. Every 1% increase in speed will be 1% increase in rpm so 70mph will be 70/65= plus 7.7% so add 7.7%...

I am going to tear into it tonight and look at my flex plate and my torque convertor.

I couldn't get headers I got from summit to fit so I got some manifolds off of a 81 Mirada. Never touched factory master cylinder or booster.

That is the exact tire I'm looking for but by the time I'd buy them from you and ship them to Iowa I'd probably have more in them than a new pair.

It doesn't seem to shake at idle but yes with a steady rpm

Actually I had time to look at it again and it does vibrate when you Rev the motor in neutral.

That is super strange. He was always on here. He seemed like good guy. @magnummopar

Any more news on this?

I got it removed but I tested it on the stand. Flex plate and balancer were bolted to the motor when I got it. I saw the motor running before purchase but no didn't drive it. It used to start shaking around 60 to 75 mph, now shakes at around 45 to 55 mph since lower gears installed. No it...

If you think I put an engine in a car with out checking and changing all of the above you must think I am a complete jack ***. It was tore down to a long block on an engine stand and checked over before it ever had new parts hung on it. If you look at the picture you can see it has a brand new...

I have had it at all 2000 rpm and actually at 2500 to set my final advance and doesn't shake at stand still.
