why would someone fly on an airline that doesn’t go all the way!

So I was walking through our warehouse the other day and saw a truck driver waiting to get loaded so I give the customary " How ya doin?" And he says" I feel great! I retired a few years ago at 62 but I couldn't stand sitting around all day so I went back to work and I am the strongest I have...

Hi All, I had something happen the other day that scared the crap outta me. Driving home from work Friday I was just taking off from a light and as it shifted to second I heard a loud bang and a tire screeching. I was able to turn onto a side street instantly to find the left front wheel frozen...

Hi I hear they make lower quarter patches now for the 67-69 barracudas. I just can't seem to find them. Anyone know who makes them? Thanks

Why are these cracked #2 cylinder blocks always finding there way to me? Back last October I posted (Bad week at the Homestead) that I found out my 30 overbore 318 had developed a cracked cylinder after trying to flush the coolant and hook up the heater. My friend found me a 69 318 that a friend...

I just read somewhere that guys over 50 are invisible to women. But then it came to me that they wouldn't be able to pick me out in a lineup!

Hi All, I have a choice to make and need your opinions. I had a post a few months back about my 318 having a cracked cylinder and needing to replace motor. I have found a recent long block that has a fresh .30 overbore with 285NP 0.30 pistons (Federal Mogul?). I am not sure of the cam but...

Hi all,i just found crack in cylinder #2 on my 1990 318 block after a very trying week. it is getting cold up here in NH so last weekend flushed out the old coolant, hooked up the heater hoses, put new prestone in it and fired her up. Noticed after about 5 minutes the right side exhaust...

I can't seem to cure my exhaust leak at the 3,5 location. I have old Hooker Competition headers. I started with some white Mr. Gaskets and just bought some Percy's Aluminum but it still leaks. You can see the imprint on the header side goes into the gasket hole. These are for 318-360 size...

I All, Finally found where my 53005714 heads came from. They come from a 1991 318 truck according to the NHRA spec sheet. What is the difference from the '302' heads also offered in '91? Also, anyone know what cc these may be? They are closed chambered heart shaped. Thanks in advance

Anyone know if these Gold Plated S/S wheels are still available? I have a set with the sbp but are looking for new ones. Also, when do you think they were made?

Hi All,Ijust removed the stock 318 from my 68 FB and noticed the converter has orange markings on it. It reads 1125A. Is this possibly the stall read from the factory? I am planning a 2500 stall but was curious to what these markings could mean. Thanks in advance.......

Hi All,I picked up an electronic distributor last fall at a swap meet and was planning on replacing the points one on my 318. It has a 375505 number on the tag. It seems to be about 1/4 inch too long. I realize electronic dizzys are plentiful, just want to know what this may have come out of...

Hi All,I have 2 Performer and a LD4B intakes as well as an old Streetmaster. I know the Streetmaster is a lousy intake but what about the other 2? The engine is a 30 over 318 with flat tops 65 in the hole with 53005714 closed chamber heads. It has a HP340 cam 218@50, 454 lift. 600 eddy. Car is...

What would a 318 with flat tops .065 in the hole with closed chambered 53005714 produce with a standard .040 gasket produce? The pistons have no reliefs and are .030 over. Also, would anyone know what Summits engine kit uses for pistons (I am assuming this is where they came from ). Thanks in...

Hi All, I was wondering what bearing material is preferred by you all. Reason for the question is I bought a '90 318 with 5k since the rebuild and it has a spun #4 rod bearing and also took out the journal. It was over revved.It has what looks like clevite bearings....tri-metal....soft...

Hi all, I recently bought a 318 that had been rebuilt 5K ago. It has flat top pistons without reliefs and is running closed chamber 53005714 heads. When I saw the ad It was still in the car and I wanted to hear it run so I went to hear it and it had a mild knock ( disclosed by seller). I...

Hi, I just switched from stamped rockers to adjustables from a 273. I am also running Mopar Performance Valve covers. Ya know those little holes at the top of the rockers? They sure squirt some oil don't they? Right onto the tops of the fender! ALSO direct hit to the PVC. I was not having a...

I just ordered a new basic ring and pinion install kit (RAT-400K) from Summit but something just dawned on me. I am getting a slight hum from the rearend once warmed up. And a slight vibration more like oscillating at highway speeds. I recently had the driveshaft shortened,straightened and...

Hi guys, Where the heck do you buy just a crush sleeve for a 8.25 rear. Seems all of the auto part places around here (And even Rock Auto) don't have a listing for it. At least in there Dorman books..... Thanks in advance

Hi, A few of us have had shifting issues trying to set up the Lokar cable and some of you have chimed in about different length levers coming off the tranny. Does anyone out there have one or better yet, both levers handy that the center to center can be measured. I have gotten the tranny to...

Hi, I bought the wrong emblems for my 67 barracuda. I bought 2 never used emblems that have the following numbers on the back.........63259....2901 852. I need 72270....2582 878. The difference is where the mounting posts are located. The original have the posts behind the B,middle a...
