    [SOLD] Edelbrock D4B intake

    The older intakes will fit the newer SB, the intake holes are just drilled at the wrong angle. The mounting holes need to be opened up. Its a half *** way of doing it but it does work and there are way more newer LA motors then the 64-65 motors.

    [FOR SALE] Autometer Water Gauge, Mech #3431

    I'm guessing it be $15 to ship, its heavy and U are in Texas. I gotta pack both together, might be more then $15 to ship both in a large box but I did say free shipping on the gauge. If you want to send me $100 for both items, I think it be a fair deal. Peter Send PM for email address

    [SOLD] 79 Dodge St Regis with 340 engine

    Wow, yeah Canada has lots of things that are different then in the usa. I winder if me, being a us citizen can just sell a hundred dollar item while on holiday in Canada without getting a permit or work visa, That old car would not have passed any type of inspection I don't think. If I ever...

    318 tear down... it’s about time.

    Got over 10,000 miles on my 340 with 3.91 gears. Motor runs great, no smoke at all. Compression was all even across when I checked it 2 years ago, haven't really drove it much since then. I rev that baby passed 6,000 rpms like every time I drove it and it goes 75 mph on the freeways. I have...

    318 tear down... it’s about time.

    Forged cranks flex less at high rpm's and are easier on the main bearings, less wear, last longer. The 273 engines were designed for going 3,000-4,000 rpms on the freeways and lasting 100,000 miles. They had solid lifters too, very mild cams but the was always upgrade cams available. Then...

    1965 Valiant Convertible - What's it worth to you?

    [SOLD] 79 Dodge St Regis with 340 engine

    Got a offer on Ebay, hes in NY and wants to tow it back home. Plans on picking it up on the 21st. Think I'm going to let him have it, so this might be sold, if he shows up with the cash in hand. I'm taking no deposit cause hes going through Canada to get here and anything can happen. Its a long...

    [SOLD] 79 Dodge St Regis with 340 engine

    If its OK with customs, I could drive the car to Ontario. Not sure if I gotta pay duties or fees to sell a car in Canada ? I took the Greyhound bus from Toronto to Detroit in the past, its a 6 hour ride but gets me back to my home state. London, Windsor, Hamilton, maybe Niagara Falls...

    318 tear down... it’s about time.

    Why not use 340 factory rods, they be stronger. I snap a 318 rod once.

    318 tear down... it’s about time.

    NO, more RPM"s can make more power. In fact when the limit for racers were 305 cubic inches, nobody stroke the motors and used smaller pistons, they de stroke them and spun the motors to 8,000 RPM's I like to see 2 engines race together, one a 390 with a 5,500 RPM limit and the other engine...

    And so it starts... 340 build

    Most times, nope. Unless the ring gaps were too small and engine got too hot and the rings butted. How would too much rpm's break rings, rods or pistons yeah but rings todays gasoline is so 'weak' octane wise, its the likely reason the rings broke, IMO

    Hellcat Crashed in Colorado

    My presonal feeling are this newer cars are better stuff is just a myth...sure they steer and brake better but when it comes to handling and crash worthy, I feel the older 70's and maybe even older cars were better..yep. Ok, a newer car can go around a corner fast but how is it at high speeds...

    Ford is still much better then overseas anything. Ford gave the USA its first automobile which most people could afford to buy.....yeah i know, thats not the point, still....was over in Flint Mi for a couple of days last month, like 90% of cars-trucks on the roads were GM, Chrysler or...

    How many times can rod and main bolts be torqued?

    Is it a street /strip engine or just street ? If just street use, they should be OK. APR makes good stuff, I reused my head bolts a few times and they still torque fine-- Rod bolts are under more stress but for mild street engines, they aren't stressed that much. Keep in mind I'm thinking of...

    Which oil filter?

    Wix 51515r with straight 30 oil, Brad Penn....the filter says not street use due to light filtering of the oil but that also means it flows better and that straight 30 oil needs it when the engine is cold. I used to run not street legal 20-50 Val but they stop selling it, did not want any...

    Early Cold Weather

    I never figured out why the world doesn't fear another ice age vs global warming. Those ice ages were real, here in Michigan the ice was a mile or more thick, how the great lakes happen. Another ice age would be more harmful then all the ice in the world melting away. Sure the coastal land would...

    Christmas commercials........ Hate them or love them

I lost my grandparents very early in life and I have yet to have any children--which expect for Xmas time, I really don't mind at all, maybe someday it come a time but now isn't it for me. One needs not to...

    Christmas commercials........ Hate them or love them

    I believe I would enjoy Xmas more if it wasn't always so freezing cold outside. Yeah it sometimes can be depressing yet I'm still looking forward to it. One day Xmas will be awesome I keep telling myself, hopefully this will be the year. If not, there is NYE to try to make up for it. I went to...
