    440 ‘69 Dart Swinger vs 5.7 HEMI 1970 Challenger

    Did it give you a MPH at the 1000'? That 11.6 is a 14 second 1/4. Where to start... Those coil overs, in the trash, they will beat the mounts out of your car and the leaf is supposed to hold the car up, not the shock. If it has strong MPH, then there is some positive. If it MPH's like a 14...

    Fake Money Used to Purchase Classic Car

    Selling a big item, tell buyer to wire the money and cover whatever fee they have to pay, usually about $35-50. If they balk at that approach, your "I'm gonna get screwed" senses better be on high alert.

    3.58 stroke x 340 main (rods/pistons?)

    Probably 368 ci to start , make .060 over 360 370-2ish For all the considerations, it's a overbored 360 from an air flow requirement standpoint. That crank and KB107's for the lower buck build

    3.58 stroke x 340 main (rods/pistons?)

    You are building a .040 over 360 if using the 3.58 crank as a starting point in a 340 block.

    340 head, intake advice please

    Run what you got. If you have the time, equipment and skill set to open up the port window on the 318/360 performer intake, it will help a little. IMO, for a driver deal, it's not worth the time or effort. That performer intake with a 1" open spacer works well on warmed up stuff. Open the...

    Adding Pinion Angle Shims - Tell Me If This Sounds Correct, Please

    ...the yoke doesn't have a flat surface machined into it, I would not use it to obtain the trans angle. Whatever the trans angle measures, down 3*, you want the pinion UP 3* for prallel state, then roll it down to obtain the "roll up" variance. Your math approach looks correct. Dr Diffs...

    71 dodge demon headers

    As the OP is finding out. You can't bolt up one and install the other here. You likely need to drop them in at the same time depending on how you have the engine situated.

    What is the best/worst you've done when selling at a swap meet?

    You mean it's not a good idea to "gas monkey" sellers? LOL I love those people. Same as others have mentioned, I have a price on it and you offer 25-50%. Don't have time for you. Most of my stuff even at the marked price was a really good value. My last day really running a swap spot I...

    410 LA small block will not rev past 6000

    Most likely the lifters giving up. Just a guess, it's going to give up around that RPM anyways. IIRC, Hughes puts a bunch of preload on the hyd lifters. I never set stuff that will see that RPM at more than 1/4 turn, most of the time, 1/8 turn

    1972 Demon with 71 340 casting

    72 model year cars were built starting in Aug 1971 IIRC. 6-8 month lead time isn't that big of a deal on a block. They didn't do just in time inventory, stuff got brought in and stacked. If it sat in the corner for a bit as newer casting came in, that's where it sat. Stamping looks like...

    Another LA Roller Cam block…

    Sawsall the front of that **** with two vertical lines... Pull it out the front. It the way it is in those yards anymore. Watch someone destroy $500 in parts to get a $5 part out. Never a big proponent of that approach. Half off day is the key at PnP

    Break in cam with new Schumacher ceramic headers?

    Yes indeed, it can be done right. It takes about 2 minutes of wrong to touch up those pretty headers to the ugly side! Header companies say that to avoid customers that don't do things correctly then wanting a redo because the customer messed up. My all time favorite was a kid I knew that...

    Break in cam with new Schumacher ceramic headers?

    Put 40-45* timing on it when breaking it in. If you run vacuum advance on an engine, it likely has more timing than that WITH a load driving down the highway. There is no load on the engine when breaking it in. Timing numbers can be increased without issue. Done a bunch of ceramic coated...

    Trailer/Winch Mount

    I cross drilled the mount so it could go 90* to trailer and also fits in the truck receiver. Makes grabbing cars in odd places much easier to access The winch mount is an old hitch receiver. I cut the ball mount of of it.
