Great name. Hollywood Knights is one of my all time favorites.

That’s what I meant. Felpro. Oh boy. I’ve had a long day.

Look how much better that looks. The head gasket I took out was a Permatex 8553 I think. The plugs are NGK V-Power GR4

Post 15 of this thread has a couple of pics of the plugs I pulled out. #5 seems to be the one being talked about.

I understand where you are coming from. I am going to stop by Advanced Auto on my way home from work and I will do a wet leak down and see what happens. What should I use for the test? Paint Thinner? I don't see myself pulling the engine and doing a complete rebuild at this point in my life. I...

So a compression test is not a good test for overall condition of each cylinder? My compression test produced 7 holes of 140 or more and one of 105. With all the plugs out and the block stone cold. I don't consider that worn to the point that I need a complete rebuild. #5 was one at 140 PSI...

Thats the plan. Friday the other one will be coming off.

Oil level is pretty steady but it doesn't get a lot of use till the fall and I drive it whenever I can when the weather is cool.

Whatever intake and head gasket issues I might have had will be replaced when the engine goes back together. Other head is coming off since I have it all apart to make sure all is well but will probably get it to a shop to have it looked at. It would be stupid to just fix the problem i know of...

What should I clean up the top of the pistons with. is a wire brush on a drill to much? I would like to get some numbers off of hem. Why would someone put 8.5 to 1 pistons in a matching number block that came originally with 10.5 to 1's

The plugs are NGK Power 4 I think. What do you recommend I use cause when I put the engine back together I will be replacing the plugs most likely. I did the leak down and #7 exhaust valve is the culprit. I got the head off today and brought it to a shop and he took the #7 valves out. The valve...

what o you see in #5 plug? What causes the electrode post to get discolored? I'm off today and I'm going to give a leak down test a try. Will post what I find later.

Here are the plugs. I’m planning on going to Advanced Auto to rent/borrow a leak down tester tomorrow morning.

I drove the car all season and it felt like power was down some. Not sure where this winter project is going to go but today I was off and decided to do a compression check. Engine cold and all plugs out 7 of the 8 cylinders were low of 137 and high of 155.......Cylinder 7 was at about...

Sorry for your loss......Losing a pet is one of the worst feelings ever.

Welcome aboard neighbor. I live in Shelton

Is there a rain date? Weather not looking good currently.

Love your Dart. I would steer clear of air shocks for sure. I had them on a car in a previous life and they did make the car look cool for the time but the car rode like crap. Big old L60x15's on the back and every damn bump I hit especially turning the *** end wanted to come around.

My 70 340 Duster came with manual disc brakes up front. Pretty sure that was standard and not power assist.

I am losing what I thought was a good income stock next month since the company was/is being bought out by a private company. Care to share the company name and symbol? I thought 7% was good with the previous holding I had.

PM sent on 72 - 6138

The kit was $109 plus tax and shipping around $130.....Not cheap but it worked out well so it is what it is.

Here is the kit I used for 1/8-27 NPT

Thanks for the Time Sert suggestion. Got the kit today finally and I was done with everything in like a 1/2 hour. Just got back from my first ride with my new used intake. My work area is dry as a bone

Here are your pics. My thread repair kit should be here tomorrow and if it does show up I will be done tomorrow hopefully.

I used one of these recently and first time installed.....No Leaks Thermostat Housing Gasket - Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth - Older V8 Engines

LD 340 intakes are not cheap if you can find one. Saw 5 at Carlisle and all sellers had 5 as the first number in the price.

I am a gluton for punishment. I couldve been done with this if I just crumbled and brought it to a machine shop. Then again i was turned away a few years ago from the place thats local to me cause I brought in my lower control arms to have the bushings removed and replaced with the new ones I...

I have a buddy with some nice Mopars and a couple other cars. He has lost touch with doing anything himself and pays people for basic repairs and he suggested trying JB Weld too.........I have done my share of half assing stuff before but this won't be one of those times.
