    Putting up a shop in CA - fire department being a pain

    Great resolution! Their original definition of a dwelling is so off base. Anything to them with exterior walls and a roof is a dwelling with that viewpoint. If they have the plans, they know that it interior framing and kitchen amenities. A sink would not be out of the ordinary for a shop...

    ~450hp from stock stroke 340?

    There was a guy in LA way back that had a 69 Z28. Ran around with 5.38's in it. Launching that car was fun to hear. Screaming little SB.

    Fresh carnage!

    Depending on the RPM that let loose, I'd be concerned with valve to piston issues.

    cam gift

    If my bad math is right that is installed per card at 108.5. You might want to put it in a bit ahead of that like 103-105 with a lower compression short block. JMO Depending on over the nose spring pressure, it might be on the brink of a stock stamped style rocker arm breaker.

    cam gift

    If you lined it up dot to dot, you have no real idea where it is installed without verifying using a wheel.

    Off set upper control arm bushings

    Instructions are fine, the dopes made the front of the car the bottom of the illustration IIRC. Also people want to reference the hole with the arrows, not the arrows on the bushings. People don't notice and put them in backwards thinking the front of car is top, which makes sense.

    Valve Spring Recommendation

    Good point on which part number for the head. The flat tappet shouldn't be a big deal.

    Valve Spring Recommendation

    Will the the cheaper 901 springs. Comp or similar from trick flow etc. That cam needs little in the way of spring pressure. Stock 340springs, etc. The ede springs are only a 310 rate. Not crazy. Have to figure out installed height pressure, but it can't be that bad for the cam.

    Stock Market

    I trade a lot with Fibs. The dreaded 1/16th quotes. ugh Emotions and respecting stops is a huge EGO barrier. I remember when options expiration was a royal screw job for retail. If you had an option and it wasn't at least .25 or more in the money, it wouldn't get auto-executed. LOL...

    ~450hp from stock stroke 340?

    340, 10ish :1, cleaned up eddies 270cfm, XS282 comp, victor, 750DP, tti's 450ish hp Car ran 116-117 in garbage air and poor tune in Las Vegas at about 3200# Biggest difference is the cam, XS is light on lift, more duration at .050 than the OP's cam plus solid vs HR.

    ~450hp from stock stroke 340?

    It'll be close to 450hp with that cam and 1.6 rockers. Tune up dependent.

    .480/230 cam in an 8.5 CR 360?

    When you advance the cam, you close the intake earlier, meaning the volume in the cylinder is greater creating more cranking compression/pressure in the cylinder vs a straight up 109 centerline. We did this all the time with the 480-484-508 hyd purple cams, cut on a 108, install at 100, makes a...

    Dual Magnetic Dizzy Mopar Perf P4876735

    Line up the reluctor with one of the pickups, is the other pickup offset slightly from the reluctor. Probably a retard deal for high gear

    Sure grip housing... send it?

    Take a run out and backlash reading on the current open diff set up. Swap the ring gear to SG diff, install it, set back lash and if you want, run out. Drive it. All SG's swap from case to case. Doesn't matter where the SG diff started, they all fit in other cases without issue.

    2024 15th Annual FABO NASCAR "Pick 'Em" Game - One More Time!!!

    What a last lap by the 17.... definitely deserved the win before the last yellow. No reason for the last yellow. Track was clean and cars would have been clear.

    this damn car is freaking killing me.

    I had one of the full later style gaskets on an early 360 with a kevko pan, leaked like the exxon valdez all over the dyno floor. Put the cork/rbber ends in, no leaks. nice work, i like the denso alternators. I think the 4 runner with a groove pulley are good choice.

    Can You Help Me ID These Cragar Wheels So I Can Sell Them?

    Cragar 5 on 4's were direct bolt, no unilugs. At least all the ones I sold in the 80's The unilugs were 4.5 and 4.75 circle. There may have been other patterns (4.75/5.0) that used that unilug stuff, 4.5/4.75 was the majority.

    Correct initial position for distributor

    make sure you have some swing for the vacuum can to clear stuff regarding setting timing. Don't have it all the way forward close to the intake plenum area. Where the rotor is currently pointing is fine. Load the wires based on where the rotor is pointing, not the diagram. Rotor position...

    340 cast crank harmonic balancer stops on crank- help!

    you could use all thread, like a stud, so you aren't stressing the crank threads JD's approach with a long bolt is the same. IIRC, autozone rents tools, including balancer install sets
