from the photos that's a lovely looking car with tons of potential and way, way too nice to part out. if you're in over your head on the motor, sell the whole thing to somebody else and search out something that's more in tune with your skills, budget or the amount of work you want to take on.

oh, foot notes are required. as is standards for font and margins. i provide a style guide for the papers in my syllabus at the beginning of the semester. didn't you get the email?

d i require a 1200 word essay on what exactly you don't like about it and why it's not a good match. please cite any sources in the bibliography and index. assignments are due thursday at 10am and i will deduct points for assignments handed in late.

+1 to everything max said. until you really do a tear down inspection everything is speculation. as things are discovered different plans will have to be made. for instance, if the bottom end is fine you can get away with a hone and re-ring and some bearings. but say the heads are waxed? do...

lolz. i'm socal native but have lived and worked in a wide array of locales and the whole "dry heat" is a very real thing. humidity kills me, because i'm a delicate flower. full disclosure: i worked in NO and beaumount for a spell. no thanks. gimme 108 and 10% any day of the week. oh and...

i think you need to upgrade the carb? clearly the factory settings should be: gumbo, mardi gras and hot as balls

*cuts eyes* i shall thrash you with a well used fan belt.

used? AFB 625/650 (or eddy performer 600) new? AVS2 500 either with electric choke.

thank you for this. 1000x thank you for succinctly putting it in the words that everybody can understand.

i haven't bought a stroker kit from them, but i picked up pistons for a build. i was more than pleased with the price and customer service. there was a little mix up with the rings and pins and even though it was months later they were excellent to deal with in getting it resolved. 10/10 would...

i do not own a minivan. closest i've come there was a 68 chevy sport van 108. wonderful little van. 10/10 would own another one. your 2018 taurus looks like something a midlevel regional manager at ross dress for less would drive. that's like, the car that resourcing reserves for you on a...

that sounds too much like Mini Van Damme, which would be far too cool for Dal the Naan.

i think @MonkeyMadness has a 392 stroker in his D series truck? maybe he can weigh in.

ftfy ;D

Dan Dan the minivan man likes his taurus with dal and naan!

i've had good luck with jasper and ATK and their warranties are pretty decent. the only issue is that most all of the long blocks they sell are smogger, so you'll need to seal up the air ports in the heads. if i was in your position, i'd go about it one of two ways. order up a short block and...

where are you coming up with this malarkey?!?? too much rum and too much sun for you matey dan! time to head below deck for some shut eye matey!

oh, that was a typo. but i'm kinda digging it. Dal the man nocar! comes with a side of naan and jasmine rice!

so noted DalTheMan NoCar

i mean clearly. should we address you as Daniel NoCar. or do you prefer Mr. NoCar?

i'd save the drive unless you were going out there anyway to hang with your friend.

not necessarily zooty, but what was available then at a reasonable cost. it's a basic build, but wouldn't exactly say it was bolt on. https://www.motortrend.com/articles/ccrp-0401-mopar-318-engine/

...engine builders and tuners, but come prepared to back up your claims when you lay down something that is toward the outside of believable. but you want receipts? here ya go: from this *enhance* some of us are fastidious with paperwork. (please disregard the messiness of my "work bench")

*woosh* ^^ that there? that's the sound of everything going over your head. okay, so, we cannot suspend disbelief because of your past levels of chicanery. you can't even keep the story straight or the timeline, well, in line. come up with that parts list and them specs and maybe i see it...

^^ KS got it. don't forget some properly sized washers

when you get into power levels like that the curve of price point flattens considerably. .... unless it's BPO. that ****'s always gonna be a mint no matter. anyway, you'd know that if you ever built anything. but instead you parrot questionable secondhand information from your sister's...

...>"i believe" >three angle valve job w/ a back cut (c'mon you're just regurgitating info here) >truck block, high nickel content, H beam rods (*snerk*) >"i think, i wish i could remember, i don't remember the exact details, i don't know for sure, etc, etc, etc. it don't matter if you got a...

or if you're like me, the first 2K goes into buying a block, and then a crank and rods, then realizing that one or all of that is crap so then you buy better stuff, and you're half way to 6700 before you hit the machine shop and the heads you bought off johnny race gas needs exhaust seats and...

i'm calling shenanigans on that 650hp 406 for 6.7. you'd need nearly half that in heads alone to put down that kinda juice. yeah, maybe he got some deals but two things: one, how long are those questionable parts gonna hang out-- especially if he cheaped out somewhere on something; and B- the...
