    Will this comp cams kit require machine work?

    Thanks for your advice everyone. I will call comp and hopefully i will get a little more help than when I emailed them. It looks like the kits comes with the 901 springs, seals, locks, etc. The cam extreme energy 262 was what I saw used in a magazine build of a stock 318. Car is a 70 dart 4...

    Will this comp cams kit require machine work?

    Hello The motor is a stock 1970 318. I see comp cams has a kit with the cam, lifters, springs, etc as a matched kit. My question is, can this installation be done with the heads still on the car or would machine work be required to install the springs or seals? the kit is...

    is it worth installing cam in stock 318?

    thanks again for all the helpful insight. the engine just turned 40k miles and has never been rebuilt, including the heads. This deal is kind of a temporary thing until there is time and money to do something better. We have a 360 block and rebuilt magnum heads and eddy magnum air gap, for down...

    is it worth installing cam in stock 318?

    Hello With money being tight right now does this plan make sense to do. Car is 70 dart 4 speed 3.55 gears. Stock 318 small valve heads, stock exhaust manifolds. we have an edelbrock performer manifold and 600cfm carb and dual exhaust on it now. Question is, until we can do something with...

    Warning - Jimsautoparts.com - shipping $$$

    Going there in person to pick up parts sounds good but I tried that too. They tell you NO. There is no part I would buy from them no matter how bad I needed it. I live 30 minutes from them.

    Warning - Jimsautoparts.com - shipping $$$

    Same thing happened to me a few years ago, and from what I have heard many many others. I am also 30 minutes from them and will sell my car before doing business with them ever again.

    Bolt Ons

    I just put 3.55 gears in my 1970 dart. Car has 245/60/15 tires and 4 speed. I am very pleased with this choice. To me its the best compromise for acceleration and highway cruising. Never used this ratio before and the car is just a cruiser but couldn't be happier.

    carbs

    Another vote for the edlebrock 600cfm 1406. I have had it on my stock 318 with edelbrock intake. Also dual exhaust and electronic ignition. Took about half an hour to set it up and have not touched it once on 6 years. Run consisitant, get good mileage, and I never smell gas.

    gaskets for 318 magnum head conversion?

    Hello All Trying to get a parts list together for this project. Since it's an old engine all the gaskets and seals are going to get replaced. Which brings me to my questions. I think the intake manifold must be the magnum type, are there any others that are mag instead of LA? Do you all...

    Leaking axle seal 8 3/4

    hello No expert by any means here but I did just do this for the first time 3 weeks ago. Brewers has the seals and gaskets. They are not very expensive, check out their website. We pulled the chuck and replaced that gasket too. Used a 6 foot length of 1/2 inch pipe to knock the seals out from...

    Over center spring

    We also use the centerforce clutch and the manufacturer recommends removing the spring. I am very impressed with the light pedal feel and overall performance of the clutch so far.

    Leaking axle seal 8 3/4

    Well I'll add in my two cents after doing this last week for the first time and running into a bit of trouble. Before you pull the old seals measure how far they are in from the flange so you know when the new ones are driven in all the way. I didn't and thought one was all the way in an it was...
