Has anyone had issues with the center link hitting the Moroso mid sump pan when turning wheels to the right? Wheels straight ahead and its already almost touching the side of the pan. Right turn is a hard no.

I thought this was a SB k frame, but my pass side TTI mount isn't even close to fitting. Did I screw up and it's a slant 6 k frame after all?

I just bought a 46RE. Was supposed to be an RH but it I bought it anyway. I've been doing some interwebbing and what makes sense one minute, seems confusing the next. From what I've gleaned, the RE is different than the RH in that there are no governors or hydraulics in the OD unit. Correct...

One of my upper control arm mounts was badly rusted and needed replacing. I ordered the new mounts from Classic and set about fitting them after cutting the old ones out and ran into some problems. Has anyone done this? I'm wondering if the inside the frame supports need to be cut down as mine...

It's been a while since I've read up on stroker kits. In the early retro swap days it seems like the 400-410 ci range was the max for stock blocks, and the 440 ci kits were aluminum block territory. Has anything changed? I've seen some more talk of the 440's running around but no mention of alum...

Is there an issue with these swaps using the small block center links, or is the Big Block center link needed for oil pan clearance? EDIT- sorry, I think I meant slant 6 vs. V8. Been away from the A body too long. I'll be using the Milodon mid sump pan if it matters.

Cant find anything with the search, but years ago there was a member who modified the pivot shafts to work with coilover shocks. It was basically a fail safe to keep the shaft in place because there will be no t-bar holding it in position. Anyone recall this or who did it? It may have even been...

I just picked up a project that has been caged and back halved. Shock towers have been gusseted to the cage downtubes very well. I'm looking at using Magnumforce coilover mounts (along with RMS uppers) and am just curious if anyone has experience with this style conversion, and how they like it...

What have you guys used or seen to support the lower half of the Quicktime bellhousing? I have been meaning to add some support- the block plate doesnt seem enough to me. I saw someone use the trans support brackets that bolt to the two holes along each side of the block at the rear, but cant...

Are there any options for a 4 wheel disc master cylinder for swaps? I am on the verge of ordering a Wilwood rear kit and got to thinking about what the options are for a master. What have you guys used or heard of being used?

Not real knowledgeable on the manual transmissions. Needing some thoughts on what the issue is here. At the track yesterday with my 5.7 hemi/T56 Warlock. On my shift into 2nd I heard a noise and the motor started revving. Limped it down track with what I thought was badly slipping clutch. Got...

Need new heads for my '06 5.7 and have found some bare '09 Eagle heads. Will my '06 5.7 valvetrain (rockers/shafts) bolt in? From what little I was able to find online it looks like it will, but I would be more comfortable with some added input. Thanks!

Took the Warlock to the dyno this morning. I will give the link to the FTO site, since it isnt an A body. http://www.fortrucksonly.com/truckforum/threads/dynod-the-warlock-today.2399/

Anyone seen this for sale anywhere recently? I need some for my clutch style sure grip and cant find singles anywhere. Even by the case is getting hard to find...

Gave the truck my first attempt at starting it today. Wanted to see if it would start without needing the push button switch so I gave that a shot first. No go- until I realized I hadn't depressed the clutch pedal. Doh! It did fire right up, and ran with some hellacious valve noise for quite a...

I just ordered up a Lincoln Mark VIII electric fan with Volvo dual speed fan relay for the Warlock. I now need to buy the proper dual thermo sensor to actuate the fans and would like to get feedback on what is the preferred thermostat temp so I can order the right sensor. Are you guys using the...

Hand delivered by some lady from God knows where. UPS mis-delivered my $2100 parcel. Quite thankful it found its way to me- I was getting suspicious of my meth lab neighbors. Time to hit the garage again...

Wondering what you have done to mate the old and new? What size fitting does the hemi's PS pump use? Local shops that used to make hoses are disappearing. I have found one that will take your old fittings and crimp them onto new hose, but that wont work well for me plus I dont have pressure...

Does any one know the sizes of the oil galley plugs (where remote filter fittings would go), and the coolant plug (just below the factory coolant sensor) on the 5.7? 2009 if it matters... I need to adapt my oil and coolant senders, but cant find any bushing adapters locally and have no clue...

I know- its not an A body- but it is a 5.7 swap. I finished mocking up the exhaust for my Warlock today. I wanted a Lil' Red type system, but didn't like the way they usually hang so low so you can see most of the piping. Jeep SRT8 factory headers, full 3" mandrel bend with X pipe, Spintech...

I found an old (really old) aftermarket Accel billet distributor for a 440 at a swap meet last year- missing the pickup and cap and rotor. After a lengthy call to Accel tech support, I finally got info on what it is and what parts are needed to get it back in use. (BTW- huge thanks to the...

I have not seen any, searches turned up none. Yet there are blower manifolds available for the new Hemi's so I assume it has been done at some point. I am toying with trying it, but don't know how the snout, idler, and pulley system work out. If any one has pics I would love to see how it turned...

I figured this might get more responses posted here rather than the drivetrain section. Starting to think about rear axle ratios to get a plan in place. I want a steep gear for racing. The double overdrive then making it driveable on the street. With the T56 1st gear ratio of 2.66, what is...

I picked this up at a swap meet last weekend and would like to figure out what it is so I can get parts for it. There are no markings anywhere on this. The advance mechanism is bizarre- it is contained on the bottom of the unit, separate from the electronics which are on the top side, and when...

Can these seals be replaced without pulling the crank? I have seen and done this in other motors but have never seen a product touting this ability for the small blocks. I would look in my Engine Book, but I borrowed it to my brother years ago and don't think he's gonna return it any time...

What model years did the complete cracking of coding start? I was planning on using Megasquirt, but now am considering a factory computer. Now that Mopar has seen the light and helped Diablosport unlock the coding it seems like picking up a complete motor with wiring harness and computer makes...

Initial test fit to my 5.7 looks like I will need to shorten the input shaft a bit. Before I do this I figured I had better ask a few questions about it. Is there a difference in the depth of the pilot holes between manual and automatic cranks? Is it possible to have the crank pilot drilled...

I am fitting a 5.7 / T56 into a Warlock. Narrow frame rails have me using Jeep SRT8 stock headers. I bought the bell with starter on pass side (8077) thinking it would work but it is hitting starter pretty hard. Has anyone confirmed the Jeep manifolds clear the Quicktime 8074 bell with the...

Looking for some good advice- other than disassembly- on how to get the splines lined up so I can install the axle. I have had the pumkin installed in housing with drive shaft bolted up and in park. Tried to slip the outer splines. No luck. Tried it in neutral with the other axle installed...

What is a normal vacuum reading at idle for such a mild cam? 383/ .474 purple shaft/ Holley 600 DP/ stock distributor Trying to get the 383 in my new Dart tuned right. Got timing set to 32* total. Hooked up vacuum gauge and was shocked to see 5" on the gauge. Adjusted mixture screws by idle...
