    Replacement 68 340 four speed cams

    Have a guy that comes to our cruise in that fondly tells the story of his old Cutlas that did 170. He judges how far beyond the 120 mark the needle swings I guess :)

    How to set breaker points?

    There is a correlation between the points gap & dwell. Setting the gap to the correct amount is all that is needed. That requires removing the cap, wires sometimes = work. I suspect the dwell # was provided so that mechanics could check the gap without removing the cap. This saved time & money...

    How much improvement will I see?

    Is that a Bracket master? If so what did it cost? 15.00 60 foot. MPH has a mid 12ish in it. Good looking side shot of the car!

    Heard it. And my power had been out since Tuesday 4am and turned on this afternoon. One of the towns he said his sister lived in. Well.. there was just a wind gust 2 minutes ago that rattled my whole house out of the blue.

    Feel like my 440 should be faster

    'Sick of throwing money at it'. Probably the least expensive 'fix' is a cam change. You have UNPORTED factory heads. These will limit upper end hp. No point using a 6500 rpm cam with 5500 rpm heads. It just leads to tears..... I would try & find a 220-225 @ 050 cam, 108 LSA, single pattern...

    Voltage regulator smoking?

    looking into the dash it really does look like someone unwrapped parts of the harness to trace issues, made some fixes and then just stuffed it all back up under the dash. The wire insulation looks so fresh and unfaded that it must have been protected by the wrap. Question to some of the early...

    Something similar was just on KNX. Fellow all up tight about the power outages since he's been blacked out for more than 48 hours and 10 miles away from the closest fire.

    They all in High Fire potential areas. It’s a result of Inverse condemnation judgments (lawsuits) in California “Inverse condemnation is a strict-liability cause of action. The entity did not have to act negligently or violate regulations to be held liable for the damage ...” So the utility...

    Intake manifold options for a Magnum 5.9/360

    yeah that's got both. and a coil mount! that's about what the hong-kong phooey intakes run: 130ish~175ish check 'em when you get 'em, sometimes the ports is off.

    Direct Connection RB connecting rods

    I would get H beam rods. Benefits over factory rods: - stronger steel - 7/16" bolts, not 3/8" - cap bolts used; this eliminates grinding a scallop for the bolt head, which creates a weak spot in the factory rod. - lighter

    Hardly accurate enough for any land speed records. Just for the driver's immediate acceptance, then they can take the gauge reading from there and do with it what they choose. ☆☆☆☆☆

    Intake manifold options for a Magnum 5.9/360

    Looking at the Crosswinds a bit closer.... It does look to have both bolt patterns to it. Why the heck is it so cheap ??

    Intake manifold options for a Magnum 5.9/360

    the air gap and the knock off air gap are all you're gonna find new. used you can occasionally find the M1 dual plane, but it'll be about the same price as real deal air gap. there are arguments conversations about power per $ or lack there of either way on the three of them.

    Magazine cars. How many on the forum?

    In 2001 I took my first really nicely finished Darts to the Mopar Nationals. To get on the show field you had to send them 6 photos of the car from specific standard angles, plus the engine and interior. It is still the only show that I have been to that requires every car to have a fire...

    This thread is hilarious. Absolutely hilarious. I’ll say one thing, I was part of a team that earned two FIA world records at bonneville in two days. We went 164.669mph officially and 171.642 mph peak. I know what it takes to get there. No charger, dart, barracuda or any other old hooptie with a...

    you gained 22 mph the last 1/8, that's good for the area of ET you are at. A sign the 5.9 is making good once it's going.

    AM radio from LA doesn't make it up here very well, unless you're in the perfect spot. I recall one spot at South Vandenberg that worked, but Elon and SpaceX have control of that part of the base now :lol:
