    Slow build 71 Scamp 440

    Flat out, I don’t know enough about big blocks to provide enough assistance other than to know cup vs ball and that they have a longer distance from lifter to rocker than small blocks. Mancini shows a set of pushrods at just over 9”, which would mean the length checker you ordered won’t work...

    Slow build 71 Scamp 440

    The factory stamped rockers will want a ball end, not the cup end that’s on the measuring tool you bought. Aluminum rockers will likely use the cup end (but not always)…maybe use that as your motivation to get those rockers you want;). Also, I don’t know big block typical length, but that...

    My new 340 at the track

    The engine isn’t together yet, so I can’t speak from experience at this time, but I had mine turned down to 2.100 as well. Being a worry wort, I had it re-nitrited. My reasoning was to run the lighter weight Eagle (Chevy) rods, with the smaller diameter 927 wrist pins to reduce stresses due to...

    318 msd 6al, msd blaster ss coil, msd distributor not working

    Dang, sorry to hear that:( Regarding voltage, put key in on position and jump across the starter relay to see if it fires. This can eliminate the voltage drop across the key circuit (installed a push button on mine for this reason…because I was too lazy to chase down the real problem)

    318 msd 6al, msd blaster ss coil, msd distributor not working

    But, you could have put it back 180 out since the shaft key index slot is universal. In the top of the oil pump drive shaft that is.

    Rotor tab to cap gap? Sometimes you bend it down when pulling the rotor off the shaft. Do you have the little card that came with it to verify the gap?

    What do I need to do my electrical system in my dart.

    Yessir! He’s not too far from me and built my first, and next transmissions. He’s a wealth of knowledge and an incredible builder! I give him a lot of credit for the consistency in my setup and run a huge banner for him on my back glass…was able to grab a track championship a little while back...

    It should, I know mine does somewhere.

    What do I need to do my electrical system in my dart.

    Also look for the cut in speed and max speed. First one is to make sure you rev up the engine high enough when you start it to begin charging. Second is to make sure you don’t over speed it (not likely, but good to know if your pulleys end up over 2.5:1 or thereabouts).

    [FOR SALE] small block OEM bolt on timing tabs-

    Thank you for taking the measurement, mine is 1-1/4, which is not close enough.
  21. dusterbing the peace

    GUESS THE ET.

    I was thinking higher converter slip and/or less rpm would limit your speed more...but my vote is cast. Let us know how you do!

    GUESS THE ET.

    I'll guess 9.7 @ 136...but I don't know how high you're willing to rev the motor. Have fun!!!

    Could you also share rear gear, tire diameter and rpm limit please? Thanks!

    [FOR SALE] small block OEM bolt on timing tabs-

    Thank you for sharing the post, and while I can understand that there shouldn’t be a difference because Chrysler wouldn’t want to pay for different balancers…they went to the effort of making different tabs, so I’d really like the measurement when available please.

    [FOR SALE] small block OEM bolt on timing tabs-

    I don’t know the interchange in years, they clearly aren’t what’s on my motor, but if the measurement is the same then I’ll purchase one if still available.

    I might like one of the ones with red or yellow zip tie, but is there a difference between them? I have a 67 with this one, are there different years?
