    Just more spiders, the occasional snake, and a few mice. Chlorinator building is mostly below ground level, roof is only 18 inches above ground.

    Harmonic Balancer 130ft/lbs on Stand

    In the past, I've taken two long bolts that are the same thread as the flywheel bolts and threaded them into the crank flange. Wedge a long prybar between them and allow it to contact one of the "fingers" on the engine stand.

    Gotcha. Obviously, I wasn't going to shoot that spider with birdshot until he was away from that panel. Lol. But he did make the mistake of being on the frame above the entrance door one day. Point and shoot without really aiming. Grease spot and a few of his "steppers" was all that was left...

    Actually, when I had that job, I always carried an old single action .22 revolver loaded with birdshot. The occasional ugly spider wasn't as bad of a deal as the occasional rattlesnake. This was the chlorinator building / control room of the local water system. I was the operator. Building was...

    Differences in 318 block.

    In response to the initial question, the later block has the provisions for roller lifters. The older block has no bosses for the "spider" to bolt to. Other than that, there are no real differences in the block. Cranks should interchange. Height of the piston crowns will probably vary some...

    318 gurus/historians

    Sadly, when money was tight several years ago, I sold all 3 of them. A 68, a 72, and a low mileage 73. Haven't had the opportunity to pick any up CHEAP in the past 20 years.

    318 gurus/historians

    To be honest, I love everything old school Mopar. But the 318 is my all time favorite engine, for exactly the reasons I've outlined. A mild cam, a set of closed chamber heads, and they are peppy enough for daily beater duty. I currently have 20 318s, a few 360s, half a dozen 383s, two 400s...

    Nothing wrong with a good ol teen. A few tweaks, and good common sense, and you get a nice, efficient little mill that will just cry out to have more beatings unleashed upon it. Go ahead, spin it 6500. If it finally does decide to let go, a good core can be bought for 200 or less. Treat it to a...
