    Ailing engine

    Ouch. Would pull the plugs and bore scope. The pressure numbers could be all over the board due to the valves not fully seating from carbon buildup. Would for sure pull the valve covers, give the valves a slight tap with the dead blow as your working through the cam timing to close the...

    The burnouts in front of our buddies house were so bad a Facebook post from the city was put up. Funny thing is that his house was outside city limits by a half mile.

    Pistons

    I love B5 blue. I have a 70 duster in B5 blue, going to be a 10 second 4 speed drag car at some point in the near future. Also the dark metallic green is sweet. There was a thread the last few days that had a 340 one posted in a pic. 10 bucks, this so called 76 Dart Sport DTM is looking at is...

    Pistons

    No kidding, this guy has more excuses than a pregnant nun…. Almost 10 years of being on here bench racing n dreaming of finding a mopar. Waiting a few days to save a few grand. But could have bought one 9 years ago for way less than this month… Fish or cut bait….

    When is a new car "yours"?

    When you get the MCO for the car. Aka the Manufacture Certificate of Origin. And if you only get a title from the state, that means they own it.

    Internal Retaining Rings

    Yeah, think that are made off shores. Look at McMasterCarr. And you also would be better off using the spiral lock ones, but that depend on what is called for from the piston maker.

    Adjustment for positive Camber?

    If you have the correct tools to do an alignment then a machine is not necessary. But your talking some real dough for a Camber / caster gauge, toe plates, bump steer gauge, turn tables, scale plates and platform, laser level. Is it worth inventing in all of this to do your own alignment when a...

    Pistons

    The other thing not mentioned in this thread is that some high performance and almost all race engines at a simi pro and pro level are having pistons custom made to their design specs. Which is about 500 give or take per piston. Don’t forget rods, cams, and everything else. So comparing a racing...

    Looking at purchasing a "portable garage" (aka, tent) for temp storage. Any recommendations?

    I had the Costco ones. It lasted 2 winters and one summer. It got hella windy where I was and over all was impressed for what it was.

    2.76 vs 2.94 gearing

    Those are cruiser gears. By going that direction you will be save a few hundred RPM when your at cruse vs what you currently have. But to me the cost is not worth it. If you want a little bit more pep out of the car and don’t care about gas MPG I would go the other direction and go to 3.23...

    318 with a new 4” crankshaft.

    There’s the old adage, cheep is expensive and expensive is cheep. Or buy once cry once. Meaning do you but buy the best you can afford and will stand up to the abuse of the power level your building to. Just look at how many motors Cletus has trashed the last few years cus they are on the ragged...
