    318 1/8 time improvement

    I know that but the gas is a big factor and the air / fuel ratios , timing etc. I don't remember the cranking pressure , I would have to look at the build and dyno sheets. I would like to see the bearings after a couple hundred runs at 12.5 to 1 compression on pump gas !!! I just got my carb...

    318 1/8 time improvement

    Wow !!! the gas must be really good where you are ! I am currently running 9 1/2 to 1 compression and I constantly check the specific gravity of the fuel I buy it usually checks 728-734 where it should be for 92 Octane Super . Lately its been checking at 710 no good ! According to my engine...

    I think its been " stroked " and its not really a 318 but bigger, especially with that much torque.

    318 1/8 time improvement

    The fact that its a " build " tells me a lot of thought went in to it and there's more to the story. Its not some 60,000 mile half worn out 318 like mine was. Yes 12.50s is fast but imagine how much quicker it would be with gears and a converter , say a 10 inch converter and 3.91s and still be...

    318 1/8 time improvement

    11 to 1 compression probably on race gas as that compression is too much for pump gas IMO. A S/S head is a whole different ball game . Why waste your time on a 318 head when you can run an Edelbrock, Indy , "J " or W style head. If you want to make real power put a stroker kit in it. Thats...

    318 1/8 time improvement

    There you go !!! 11 to 1 compression and ported heads , my 360 heads were stock and I am lucky if the compression was 8.5 to 1. I went 11.30s with a 9 1/2 to 1 340, 557 lift cam and ported J heads. Now I run 10.80s with a 9 1/2 to 1 compression 410 inch small block , 585/595 lift cam with...

    318 1/8 time improvement

    Probably had more compression and a bigger cam or was spraying it . I just threw it together to race while my 340 was being fixed. It wasn't really my primary race engine I am sure with more work the 318 could have ran quicker. I sold the motor but wish I would have kept it.

    318 1/8 time improvement

    Just a little FYI ! years ago I broke the 340 in my 68 Dart race car , I bought an original 318 out of a 68 Charger we did a quick valve job , put in a stock type 340 cam and an old LD4B intake, Holley 750 , 1 5/8 headers and the car ran 13.90s with a 3.91 gear. I put on set of 360 heads and the...

    Super Stocks Springs have i reached the limit?

    I ran S/S springs for many years on my Dart it actually ran its best 60 ft and E.T. on them : 10.40 with a 1.40 60 ft. I switched to Cal Tracs , their mono leaf springs and rear ( Rancho 9 way adjustable ) shocks awhile ago . My 60 fts became more consistent . I tried the Calvert adjustable...

    What's on your "to do" list for this winter on your race car?

    Not much ... I just got my carb back from AED after a rebuild and calibration and I just put it back on about an hour ago. I have to redo my exhaust again as the TTI H pipe I bought last year is junk ... the mufflers are hitting the driveshaft even after having the pipe rebent to move the...

    Pulling Engine/Trans over the winter....Header Question??

    I have had my motor in and out several times since going to TTI headers but I have never taken the motor out with them attached. The passenger side is pretty easy to remove from the bottom but I have left the drivers side in the chassis until the motor is out . I leave the trans in the car and...

    Anyone Using Starting Line Enhancer on A-Body?

    Yes I spoke to Biondos about an electric shifter but they aren't available for my Turbo Action shifter only if I change my valve body to forward pattern. I run a trouble free 904 , I constantly have friends trying to talk me into a power glide .. it would be expensive with me having to change...

    Anyone Using Starting Line Enhancer on A-Body?

    Biondo Racing can help you out with anything you need just go to their website or call them. I have a DD starting line enhancer in my car but am not currently using it. Its basically a spring loaded lever that you mount next to your shifter that you adjust via a thumbscrew to get your desired...

    Duster Breaks FAST Small Block Record

    One of the fastest Duster 340s in the country running D/SA Won class at the Dutch Classic with a 10.24 and I know this car has been in the nines by the previous owner. It just makes what you do on a small tire with more class restrictions all the more impressive!

    A virtual Dyno said this...

    IMO I would say no to the cast crank and hyper. pistons , I went as fast as 10.70s with a stock bottom end 360 crate motor but it didn't last long before we upgraded everything to better parts like a forged crank etc. I am not a big fan of nitrous , I saw the damage just spinning a bearing on a...

    Mopar Muscle induction Extravaganza Dyno testing SBM intakes, comparison....

    I always dyno my motors mainly to break them in we don't test to many different parts. However on one of my small blocks years ago we swapped my gasket matched Strip Dominator for an out of the box Victor and it was 13 hp better with no other changes. Most of my motors are in the mid 500 hp...
