Broke in the cam 2200 rpm for 30 mins, the temp went up to 260 then dropped down to 195, oil was steady at about 60-65 psi. It's a damn smooth runner. We just have to dial everything in tomorrow. THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :notworth: :thumblef: :salut...

Yeah tell me about it, It is in a shop right now and will be inside until I start running anti freeze then its comming home and I only have a "2 car garage".....hahahahahahaha yeah right more like 1 car after I get all the workbenches, dirt bike, toolbox, engine hoist, and other toys in there...

I havent filled the coolant yet but I will try running streight water for a little while (it's getting real cold here and snowing off and on). I primed the oil on Sunday and it shot streight up to 60+ lbs on the Sterwart Warner test guage and there were no leaks and It was holding the...

It is now 8:27pm sunday nite and Im running on 6 1/2 hrs. of sleep so far this weekend :sleepy3: but the motor is in. All I have left to do is tighten up the exahust, put in the distributer, bolt on the carb and get some new heater hoses for it. I prelubed the motor before I dropped it in...

Ok, The new intake fits, everything is done, loaded in the truck and ready to go so tomorrow Im getting up early driving to my friends shop and yanking out the old 360 and dropping in the new 360. With any luck by sunday there will be another 73 scamp back on the road! Break in... 2200 rpm...

I got the new eddy performer from summit today and installed the intake,carb, valve covers, water neck, all the chrome plugs, and acessories. Then I spent about 40 mins. just sitting in my garage and starring at the new, shiney, fresh painted 360 on the stand...It feels good!!!!

I called up summit and told them whats going on and they said to send back the Weiand and they are overniting me a eddy performer. The summit tech guy and the customer service guy didnt sound too surprised when I told them that the Weiand didnt fit right. So I will drop the motor in the scamp...

But shouldn't a brand new $176.00 intake fit without having to "pull" it into place? I'm ganna order some of the Mr. Gasket ultra seal intake gaskets and try that and if it still wont fit I'll call up summit and see about getting a new one.

The new intake sits too low so the holes are too high but I have tried 3 different intakes on it ( the old offy, a eddy duel tunnelram, and a stock 2 bbl) and they all fit just fine. So why would a brand new streight out of the box from summit Weiand Action Plus intake not fit right, Should I...

I was test fitting the new Weiand Action Plus intake on my 360 and noticed that the bolt holes didnt line up, even with the blue felpro gaskets, so I took the old offy intake and sat it on the motor and they all matched up fine. The paperwork with the new intake said that I need to use gaskets...

Well I broke down and ordered a Weiand Action Pluse intake from summit and it will be here tomorow. I figured that the old offy 360 intake is old crusty and has 3 helicoils in it already so to hell with it. I have a new eddy 600 carb that was only 4 months old when the old 360 died. Rocker...

This thing is going in the car thanksgiving weekend so Im going over everything about 50 billion times. In the book "How to hot rod small block mopar" by hp books they say to torque the rocker arm shaft bolts to 30 ft lbs. I have a brand new torque wrench and at 30 ft lbs. the rockers seem...

Thats what I was thinking, I just needed someone to back me up. It's the whole "everything else is new and shiny and it looks really neat in that summit book, and I really really want one.....but do I need it?"

What about a HV oil pump? I have heard that they are worthless on a street car and even on some mild builds due to the fact that they pump too much oil too fast and you end up with no oil in the pan.So I should just use an over the counter stock pump? Is any one year pump better than another...
