Yeah i wrote them already about exactly that! Thank you!

Yeah i will be using magnum oem roller lifters, and a #722 cam regrind of oregon. so i should have 1.6 ratio rockers otherwise the kit of mancini would be great

My block doesnt have the oil holes, and i need new 1.6 rockers anyway. So ill contact prw then

So some of these come with drilled adjuster amd some not drilled??

Hi guys, can somebody confirm please that i can run LA aluminium heads (edelbrock knock off) on a 5.9 magnum block if i use the PRW 3231812 rockers? Obviously along with hollow pushrods, but i will have to measure the length first. Some people say you need to drill the adjusters of the...

Thanks for the answer, LCA bushings are quite new poly ones, just had them apart, definitely not metal on metal, they look the same as when I installed them new

Hey guys, I just installed tubular UCAs from PST and I struggle to set the camber. I just wanted to pre set it so I can drive the car to the alignment shop later. I have boxed stock LCA, adjustable strut rods, 1.03 torsion bars, stock disc brake system, car is 1974 Scamp. First I set the...

No trans is filled

Here is a little video from the running engine: VID-20240426-WA0001.mp4 (hope the link works)

Ok guys just to keep you updated whats going on: As when I pulled the bottom end of the 318 apart i found that one of the pistons had a massive crack in it, so i put all the 318 parts in boxes and they lay in a corner since then. But ive found a 5.9 magnum engine out of a 1997 Dodge Ram with...

The whole area was covered in dirt grease and was basically all black, actually tool the head off yesterday and didnt even notice that it was repaired, only seen it today when I cleaned up the block

I took some more pictures of the misery: The piston has a little dent aswell from the part sticking into the cylinder (see left cylinder in 2nd pic)

By the way, do all 318 blocks have the same deck height? Was the compression change only due to piston height?

Thanks for that, actually 318 blocks are not that rare here in Europe too and quite easy to find, but they are obviously far from free, or pick one for 100 at junk yard or so... so I rather invest that money in the 360

Thanks for all the answers! The story is actually I just broke my 0.30 over 360 block of my 408 stroker as the lower oil rings of two pistons broke and left deep scratches in the cylinder 1 and 4. I first thought about fixing it with two sleeves but with the machine shop prices over here that...

I also thought that, just wondered because it seemed like it has never been apart before...

Hey all, I just teared down my 1969 318 engine and found this (see pictures) between cylinder 4 and 6. As I thought I removed the thin stock looking head gaskets I wondererd if this is maybe done by the factory? Anybody seen something like that before? Actually I wanted to reuse the stock...

Sadly u joints are also the small 7260... Dont know whats exactly been done to the 904 but its fully built by a well known trans guy over here in Europe with billet parts from A&A so i think thats gonna be fine

Hey guys, ive got an got an aluminium headed 408cui in my 74 Scamp, about 10 to 1 compression, comp XE275 cam, air gap, holley 750 dp, msd ignition... nothing too crazy. Last year my second hughes 2500stall converter failed and ive thrown in the stock converter with the stock flexplate, which...

But whats the reason for that or how can it be prevented? Im just worried that i put the stock converter back in and the same will happen

I hope you can hear the sound of the parts falling around inside the converter.

Its a street car never used nitous flexplate is this one: TCI Auto 145200 TCI Forged Flexplates | Summit Racing when I change back to the stock converter I have to use the stock flexplate aswell because of the 5/16 bolts, any issues using a stock flexplate behind a 408? Sadly I am in europe...

When ever I installed the converter it moved freely forward and backward when the transmission was bolted to the engine. I first put the converter in the trans as far as possible, then bolted the trans and engine together, then pulled the converter forward to the flexplate and put the converter...

Hi all, I really have bad luck with my 904 trans behind my 408cui stroker. A few years ago, because of reasons I still dont know, my Highes 2500stall converter got desroyed while driving, the internals must have rubbed against each other and the whole transmission was ruined. It also destoyed...

Do you maybe have the measurements of the torque boxes templates? I would like to make some for myself too, thanks very much in advance!

What i also did with no success till now was sticking 2 rubber hoses on the vent tubes, but issue didnt change. I will try to lean idle mixture now, so i will try to go for highest vacuum and then go 1/4 turn or so lean. The jet extensions seemed to help a lot of people, also read you need...

Hey guys, im having trouble with my 750 Holley HP douple pumper, engine is a 408 stroker. I just had it jetted and adjusted from a guy who actually knows what hes doing, car runs really great now, the only issue is that the engine stalls when i brake quite hard. I dont need to slam the...

What would be the downsides of using the xe274 cam, i thought that could work out fine with the 1.88 intake valves of the 360 heads and make a engine which likes a bit rpm, when the compression is high enough??

I just got an offer to mill the block for 140€ plus tax in Germany so if the block would be zero deck, and with some flattop pistons i would be just over 9 to 1 compression with 73cc heads and 0.040 head gasket. So if I could find flattop pistons with about the same weight could i just...
