    [SOLD] Passon 18 spline 4-speed overdrive $2500

    Currently priced at 3595 I think. I also think this transmission would be well suited for a big block or a 3rd gen hemi swap.

    [SOLD] Passon 18 spline 4-speed overdrive $2500

    I believe it might be outside of that timeframe. I just assume that since I'm not the original purchaser, I'm not entitled to a warranty.

    [SOLD] Passon 18 spline 4-speed overdrive $2500

    I'm not trying to be rude or dismissive of your questions. There was literally nothing wrong with the transmission. The unit gets shipped dry and there was just enough friction to keep it from moving. Even after I put oil in, with the side cover off, it wasn't moving. I spoke to a couple of...

    [SOLD] Passon 18 spline 4-speed overdrive $2500

    I opened it up, dumped some oil in it, wiggled the shift forks around and everything ended up being fine. Those two detent balls were replaced because I didn't like the way they looked even though they may have been fine. Some kid at UPS probably chucked it in the van too hard. My TKX was the...

    [SOLD] 65 barracuda 273 2 barrel non formula s

    It pains me but I am selling the matching 273 from my barracuda. It's tired and needs rebuilt. It will come with the Edelbrock d4b manifold and a pertronix unit in the distributor, and I might just toss in an Edelbrock 500 too. It's been covered up inside for 6 or 7 years. The adjustable...

    [SOLD] Passon 18 spline 4-speed overdrive $2500

    I've got a Passon 4-speed I got with roughly 1/2 mile on it. It came with a car I bought so I installed it, drove around the block and decided to go with a TKX. (I actually made a post about it last year because I was having trouble with it spinning and shifting but it ended up being nothing)...

    I need a manual transmission guy around Seattle

    I was thinking about getting YouTube certified and just going for it. I've rebuilt scores of engines for cars and motorcycles but I've made some real problems for myself with a couple of transmissions I went through. A member here just gave me a number of a guy that's right in my neighborhood so...

    I need a manual transmission guy around Seattle

    What does anybody's past experience with passon have to do with my experience? I gave some facts about what I found inside this transmission and I'm looking for somebody to help get it sorted out. I'm a big boy and I'll just pay someone locally to have it fixed. As of right now I'm $0 into it so...

    I need a manual transmission guy around Seattle

    I don't want to start a hate fueled rant about anyone until I have this figured out. Here's the story so far. I purchased a 65 Barracuda from my brother before he passed away this last December. Btw he was a member here called R3dplanet. He had purchased a transmission from Passon sometime back...

    Valve lift question

    I have stud mount rockers. This obviously makes it easier to make the adjustments I need. In regards to my cam selection, I'm probably pushing the envelope for my needs but I've worked diligently with lunati and and my machinist to meet my goals. Once I pick up my heads, I can start checking...

    Valve lift question

    Exactly. The question only came up because the wrong rockers were mailed to me. Or so I thought. The guy at Hughes told me that because of the funky pushed angle, a 1.65 calculates much closer to 1.6. As soon as my heads are finished, I'll measure the valve lift with the 1.65. I'll know for sure...

    Valve lift question

    I have EQ magnum heads. 1.6 rockers are factory. I'm not even sure if you can run a 1.5 without machining for clearance.
  15. Boneswell

    Valve lift question

    Scratch that. I just threw out numbers on the exhaust side. That does put me pretty close to what I want with the 1.65.

    Valve lift question

    Shooting for around .580
  17. Boneswell

    Valve lift question

    Also, I feel like I might be pushing what I want for lift anyway. My cam is .535/.550". With a 1.6 that's .584" and 1.65 is .604". The springs will be fine but I left the heads unported so i could do a before and after comparison. I think I might be at the limits of what my heads flow.

    Valve lift question

    Very interesting. I'm not an engineer but I get really excited about engine dynamics. I have loads of engines under my belt (Subaru, SBC, rotary's, 2 and 4 stroke motorcycle engines) but this is my first mopar. I like learning about and overcoming design flaws as well as exploiting their...

    Valve lift question

    Obviously this question is subjective and too full of variables. Even if I had an exact answer, how much of that is even relevant one the engine is running? Thermodynamics and material deflection will most definitely cause some changes. This really has little relevance to my build. My math is...

    Valve lift question

    Yes, I'm sure it's exponential with the rocker arm
  21. Boneswell

    Valve lift question

    That's not what I'm asking. After you calculate 1.5 or 1.6 or whatever, has anyone measured the lift at the valve and subtracted that from the cam lift? Such as...a .500" lift cam with a 1.5 rocker measured at the valve will not be exactly .500" lift because of imperfect valve train geometry.

    Valve lift question

    I have an LA360 with a lunati retrofit roller cam and hydraulic lifters and EQ magnum heads. I ordered up some prw 1.6 roller rockers from Hughes but was shipped 1.65 instead. This is completely irrelevant because I'm shipping them back come Monday for the correct parts but it does pose the...

    EQ head issue

    Cool! I'll be a smidge under 10:1 and enough overlap to be happy and pump gas. This is also my first foray into running a hydrolic roller.

    How did they work for you once you got them straightened out?

    EQ head issue

    I couldn't find this particular issue discussed in the archives so pardon me if this has been beat to death already. I purchased my EQ heads from Clearwater a couple of years ago and they've just been sitting on the shelf unit the car was ready. I decided to change the cam so I have the heads...

    360 build

    Its going in my desert tan '75 duster. I have some pics on my profile page. Ugly car for sure but I've gutted it, POR on the floors, rebuilt the dash and everything behind it. Dynomat. New vents. New windshield, headliner, seat covers and carpet. It's going to feel like new inside. The car was...

    360 build

    It looks like you have a nice setup. I think I would have been plenty happy just leaving it the way it was but hey, at least 25% of hotrodding is bench racing and blabbing about your engine build. Thanks for your input.
