Pshh, Here in free society we don’t have to have inspections and emissions test on even new cars.
Please stop recommending **** if your recommendation’s KYB.
Did you put KYB’s on the sprint car? This is pure bufoonery.
@mad dog Keep in mind @Oldmanmopar doesnt really know anything. He just...
The only other area you will need to address in the difference in intake bolts and their angle between the '65 heads/intake and the '84 318 version. Either get an earlier intake off a '66-up 273/318, or, redrill and get some angled washers for using your 273 intake on a 318. A 2bbl-4bbl...
'70-77 model timing cover. '69 and earlier have the timing gauge on the passenger side. Starting in '78 the balancer seal could be installed without pulling the cover, otherwise will interchange with the '70-7 cover. There should be an actual date code cast into your cover in case someone wants...
Pittsburghtacer has always ridiculed my W5 & W2 bashing low lift flows against his stuff and other heads.
I have often called him out on this and challenged him to do better but he has always said “No Thanks” to task. I asked him if he ever has ported a set of W2 or W5 heads and he said no.
I...
I randomly chose the Wallace calculator and got about 7:1 assuming 64 deg intake closing ABDC based on the XE274 cam. I'm not overly familiar with this metric but I don't think 7"1 is good for a na motor. I think this llustrates why cam mfg recommend minimum compression ratios.
Welcome!!!
Like just said, make it safe! Obvious brakes,tires, and suspension, and then there is reliable, as in drive train and then what ever it takes to make it enjoyable for you!
Make a plan and stick to it ( if possible)!!!
New Comp Cam, new solid roller lifters, new Smith Bros pushrods, new set of Harland Sharp rocker arms, somehow figure out how to drill out and re-tap a broken valve cover stud in the passenger side W5 head, swap converters, get rid of the weak two piston brake calipers on the front wheels and...
Ok, let me find some lobes that aren’t so aggressive.
The valve train won’t take that with 5/16 bolts although I know someone will say they are running 280 on the seat and 650 over the nose with 5/16 bolts.
I don’t like that.
these are a set of a body W-2 headers comes with all adapters and hardware
i got these headers because i worked at DLI and Dick had a set of the std version on his blue 73 dart sport that car was featured in the big three shootout I basically got this because I wanted to collect old mopar...
Thank you all for your help and support in my favorite hobby! It’s been indispensable having such knowledgeable folks here and over at FBBO. I couldn’t have done what I have done without you guys!
Moreover I am thankful for the friendships I have made and the community at large. We need more...
I just saw the thumbnail for this video at lunch as well, but haven't had a chance to watch it yet. Just went through their website and looked at the instruction manual. Looks interesting, though maybe not a great fit for all wheel styles. Kind of seems like it's aimed at wheels with a...
The Holley also has the bolt in baffle, that bolts into the the pan. I assume that the Milodon pan has something similar welded into place. One thing that the Holley pan has, that I didn't know it had until I needed it, is that the windage tray will accept a 4.050 stroker crank without mods...
On my 74 w200 I used a Canton Block plate:
Canton Racing Products 22-575 Canton Racing Oil Filter Plates | Summit Racing
Then the Clear View Filtration oil filter block adapter. I like this one because it uses -12AN ORB fittings, which are large and ORB fittings usually never leak.
Clear...
