what HEI module are you running?

Crank is at exactly TDC. Points look to be open here, max opening maybe. I'm assuming you are going to back it up to 12 or more BTDC?

1/4 of the ground strap up from the threads is black/rest of the length is grey/insulator bone white. sometimes I dont start it for months & I use starting fluid, I know I should be filling the bowls instead. RR

been sidetracked but I will get on it. way back I remember a community college professor said that 73 was the worst year of eng mods to meet emission requirements. iirc the factory initial was TDC!

OK I will dig in & get some numbers starting with a compression test. thanks guys. RR

new to me car/motor. just getting started driving it. drinking way too much gas. RR

bone stock 318 2bbl. just started dealing with it, very poor mileage. I understand 73 was a bad year for emission calibrations. any thoughts on where I should start? thank you for your time. RR

with all the good info here I feel confident. RR

I do have some extra packing tape & no plans to box anything up & use it

good info guys, I'm gonna give her hell. RR

good comprehensive info & very much appreciated. I think I will confirm the TDC slit then glue the sh-t out of it & for backup scribe the marks on the side using it as a ruler. RR

I had prior thought about just useing it as a ruler with a paint stick as I only need a few measurements (initial/total & a few numbers on either side of that} but I am going to glue the hell out of this one. RR

thanks 67, will do

what should I use to lock it on the dampener so it stays put? thank you for your time. RR

the good 340 exhaust manifold (drivers side). what is the outlet diameter/years available? thank you for your time. RR EDIT & casting # please

yes dist/oil pump drive

the chrysler dealer said there are 144 of em on back order at dealers. are these made aftermarket & if so which one should I get?

Thanks guys! he is good people. RR

this man went out of his way to help me resolve my issue. He sent me an intake for just the shipping amt. You couldn't ask for a better man to do business with. RR

I'm probably missing something but I'd call it good! I do shoot for minimal preload & check the contact pattern

^^^ googled it & found it. cryo-tech

what triple R said, I will check the oiling points on mockup first, on my next one. RR

I will keep that in mind for next time.

from what I read on the utube chats I'm gonna need it and it is a howards cam, its just that one of the vids said that comp cams offers nitriding & hopefully that is for any cam that you send in not just for one of theirs. I'll give em a call.

these are Hughes racing hyd lifters & I do measure a crown. I will take all the prep you suggest. thanks guys. RR

will do as advised, thanks guys. RR

My bad, I posted 1.625 instead of the correct 1.265, got my numbers transposed & I think RRR nailed it!

^^^ that's good to hear. just all of the horror stories have me worried. RR

cant go roller (rules) plus its pricey. I want to have a successful breakin with failures being epidemic. been watching some utube vids & they talked about miking the lobe taper & one mentioned that comp cams can nitride a cam. what are your thoughts? thank you for your time. RR

I took the dampener diameter (7.25") times Pi (3.1416) = 22.7766" circumference. divide that by 360 gives 0.0632683" for each degree & times 20 degrees would be 1.625" around the dampener. Am I wrong on this?
