Goooooood distributor!

LMAO! THANK YOU!!! I was notified and I did notice in the video. I had no idea. Better to inform that not. Thanks. I had no idea. I’ve never had this happen to me. I’m not sure where to go with it yet. I have a bit on the table to do first. Starting with the wife’s car and then I’ll get back to...

Actually only a few are turbos. The Dynomax turbo is a true turbo muffler and most others are not. Read the description in the below custom video for you I just made, so - with hopes - you can get a good idea how what I have sounds. I forgot to add in…. I reved up the engine from idle to...

Walker “Quite Flow” or the “Sound FX” mufflers. This is the following method for suggest for a quite ride without getting crazy. Headers or manifolds, it doesn’t matter, but afterwards… Use an “H” or “X” pipe, I like an H because it’s quick and easy. At the OEM muffler location, use the...

I met a guy a long ways back an had a 273 he’d rave about. So we challenged him. And put my 360 on the “L” column. Yep! Got whooped! By a Bad *** 273.

That was one of my reasons as well. Ugh! And I was young then! LOL! While there is nothing wrong with points!, it’s when they get old and coupled with today’s junk at the stores, it’s more of a PIA to have a sweet running old machine running the OEM equipment. I’m had a cam so worn out on one...

Tony, when we met years back for some parts, you sure don’t look that old! Certainly fooled me! LMAO! Keep up the good work. We all have a car or two….. or three… LOL… that we wish we still had. I could name a few for sure. I’ve always liked the electronic conversion kits way better than...

That was the later years no doubt. The 340 cam was also used in HP 360’s. Not all 360-4 engines got the 340 cam. (Cali- standards for emissions were also higher thereby reducing HP further.) Nice! You bet! Read on below. I never tried the difference comparison. But this is essentially what...

Actually not to bad considering all of the imposed emissions on it and reduced compression ratio. A lot of people trans it but it’s nothing that an ether a piston replacement can’t fix (super hard back in the day) or a head milling can’t fix. Even though that would require a big cut on the...

Use it or loose it what I was told. I write stuff down now. If I don’t make a too do list, I do nothing. My library still yet grows.

Nice additional info. That helps a lot. Try the LD-340!

The fellas are on target there. We are missing a bit of information. Here is what I’m looking for; Camshaft duration @050 Car Weight Gear ratio & tire size

Right! Another way to get there (390 cubes) is the 4.00 arm in a bored out 318. Add a good head and a cam! Hummmm, a 360 crank @ 3.58 into a 340 block bored to 4.100 for a 378.12 or a 6.2. Add a good head & cam! Right! 3.58 (360 crank) into a bored out 318. Might as well go .030 over...

Have you taken note of that bore and stroke combo?

This crap annoys me.

Yep! Sometimes a manufacturer will spec an ohm resistance for there gauge. It doesn’t make sense to us but for them, you have to purchase there material so they make the money of everything. This way you just can’t run out and grab a generic or manufactures sending unit and be back up and...

If that’s what you think…. OK!

And on with the thread as scheduled!

Bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla….. You add in your two cents and get push back, then cry about it. What did you expect? Then you stoop down to sexual remarks out of know where. Yeaaaaaaa, OK. Shows yourself really well and where your at. Excellent job. I’ll belittle you in person if you want! I...

Biggest bore, shortest stroke possible. Not in my wheel house stuff. But would a work truck that WORKS due? Then I would just be the most stoke I can get in the block do that makes sense for the intended rpm usage. In other words, I don’t see a need for a 4.15 crank in a 440 inch f the stock...

Go to the bedroom or bathroom and clog the Dolphin for a while. Click the below for help. Then eat a snickers candy bar. Perhaps you’ll calm down afterwards? https://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/threads/omg.446298/

The same answer applies really. You want to add bore size? Or stroke or whatever. But sticking with bore size, 1.3 sq in will add, let’s just say, 5 HP on a stock engine. Add a cam and retest, it’s now a 15 hp difference. Add cylinder heads, let’s say, OOTB Edelbrocks, that’s 15 more? 25 more...

Because sometimes there is a weight break at a low CID that you can take advantage of. This is an unanswerable question due to the near endless amount of combinations. If you tested this idea at the same cubic inch then you would also have to try the various strokes. Then there is every part...

What’s the B&S combo?

A better than average build with a reground cam? W/3.55’s? Not happening. Not possible. Speak with Oregon cams. They’ll set you up with something along the lines of a cam of 226@050 with more lift. If you choose an OEM AVS, you’ll need the MoPar dual plane intake which if it’s actually found...

An electric pump for the mechanical pump was the old way of doing things to ensure the mechanical pump would always have fuel. The fuel pump also acted as a pressure regulator. Fuel pressure regulators came in later when the fuel pumps introduced more pressure for more volume. Currently, I use...

A slight increase in duration affords a good jump in torque without the need of extra stall in the converter and a few hundred more rpm’s with often not adversely effecting gas mileage.

Visit a car meet and find a MoPar club rather than a local mechanic since most are not of an age where they understand a carburetor or the ignition system. Much less one where it’s been altered and upgraded. If a local shop has an older fella you might be in luck.

Where are you in Ohio? There are a bunch of members in that state and surrounding areas.

Hooker headers, excellent start. What I mean is, dual exhaust with an H pipe or X pipe and what size are the pipes? Then muffler brand. No worries, no that important at the moment.
