Mine is also black hard plastic - there are universal ones available from Lokar and even cheap versions on Ebay that are braided

I am running a typical 92mm LS style throttle body with an LS throttle cable bracket and an adapter plate. The adapter bracket needed some slight shaving to make it all fit - not the prettiest or most "trick" set-up but was extremely affordable

I believe the "S" numbers refer to ISKY's master lobe chart... not sure if this is true but given you know nothing else about it - it MAY help someone have an idea "S-480" = 288* advertised / 254* @ .050 .547" @ 1.5 ratio "S-396" = 292* advertised / 259* @ .050 .547" @ 1.5...

Not an A-body but I got my 6.1L heads off in the car

Indeed - the manifold is the most difficult piece - I believe Indy makes a low-deck mod-man intake that can mount a 71 series blower

I have the BBM to T-56 scattershield in my storage shed - The T-56 / TR-6060 should have the same bolt pattern to physically bolt up the the same bellhousing... the issue is that various T-56 and TR-6060s have different input shaft lengths... I couldn't find any specs on the Dodge TR input...

Arrington Performance Sells crate engines...

Was going to say the same thing - he has factory truck iron magnums 1.92/1.625 heads at 214/147 @ .600" lift

You can always get the bare heads without springs/retainers/locks and have a competent machine shop finish them off and install the appropriate springs for your cam. I ended up doing this with my TF heads - my machinist was really impressed with the castings and overall quality - he just...

My opinion is if you're going to swap pistons and probably rods then you're not far behind a drop in stroker kit --- could get a forged rotating assembly and drop it into a 5.7L block and have a 6.4L... You also know the exact components within the engine. Gen III heads are out there and...

That one I pictured was actually for my forward light harness that went under the fender... used 16ga wires where as the EFI controller uses mostly 20-22ga so I went with a larger capacity pin. I went with MS3470L18-32 for the bulkhead and the MS3476L18-32 for the connectors... I am...

I'm using some mil-spec bulkheads for my wiring harnesses - mounting them directly on the firewall just above the transmission tunnel so they stay pretty well hidden

Thanks for the response - I figure for minor tuning while out and about it would be easier to just leave the Pi in the glove box -- if major tuning needs to be done back at the garage with a laptop -- I appreciate the info

Curious - I am converting my Gen III over to an MS3X and will be running Dakota Digital gauges - would the Pi allow me to make adjustments in TunerStudio on the fly while driving (Instead of having to use my laptop while driving)?

I had a similar issue with an engine a customer brought into the shop one day- very different as it was a 440 with aluminum heads, aluminum intake... the engine builder only used a stamped valley pan... what happened was the expansion of the heads/intake were so much that a vacuum leak...
