rumblefish's Duster project

68;

Thanks.

As of right now, I just cleared up about 70% of the largest bills I have. The wife just recently became a grad of collage as a RN and landed a job at the hospital. It's a wonderful tihng starting at 65K a year. Now, it's pay the collage bill off. LOL

This expenditure for her schooling has left the project in slow to no go mode for a bit. But will pick up right soon. I'll be starting in on the floor boards in about a month. (Next month) Front disk swap (Next week or) at the same time since I only need minor parts for it. Brake hose and pads. Then the fun should begin.

The port mismatch is not one to be concerned about since the ports of the heads are larger than the ports of the intake. The air and fuel will not crash into the head, which would be alot worse than having the air and fuel go into the larger area of the head port from the smaller intake track.

No head port matching will be done on the current heads.

The intakes I have will be run in there as is condition. The LD-340 has work done to it. (As per MP book instructions)

IF, (I hate that word) I can come up with the cash to do the 302 heads, those will be port matched to the 340/360 window size.

Otherwise, I have stock J heads to swap on and Edelbrock heads to swap on for the "Just for fun" reason of swapping them on and run it at the track just to see and post about. That will be a new thread on it's own.

I also have a few things on the Harley I need to replace. That'll be about a grand in parts with me doing the work.
