Thanks guys. It's not a big deal to get a std. pump since my maint. Guy at work already said he'd buy th HV for his smallblock he's building if I decide not to use it. It is destined to be a street motor, actuall not far from a daily driver. I'm not gonna be unrealistic and say I'm not ever...

Ok so i was just wanting to get some more experienced input on this subject. I am building what would be considered a mild street 318. I bought a new m72hv oil pump for it. My uncle, who granted is no motor guru, but has built more than myself said it wasn't a good idea to use it in my motor...

I was just putting it out there. Wasn't really rod ratio I had in mind . Although I guess it wouldn't be a bad thing. I have just been scouring different sources of info to find different ways of upping output on a shoestring with as little machine work as I can get by with. I thought since they...

You can get rebuilds for about $40 a piece. And they come factory with arp fasteners! Anybody with more wisdom than myself feel free to chime in. As of now I'm seriously considering this.

Was wondering if anyone has tried viper rods in a 318. I've heard of them used on some stroker builds but I was wondering...they are basically the same as LA rods, but the wrist pin bores have to be honed out about.039. But they are .098 longer. Since 318s run similar distances below factory...

I have both manifolds never been seperated and a carb that I'm sure would need gone through. I'm at work right now. PM me if your interested and I'll dig it out and go over it tomorrow and see if I can't get you some pics. I don't think I have kick down or linkage for it.

Ok made it out to garage today. My heads are actually #4027596 (81-83 hipo heads). My book just gives a range on combustion chambers for these, 66-72.5cc. Block #s are 4104230-318-2, I have two sets of rods 3418645 and 2899469. Are one of these more desireable than the other, also did mopar...

Like I said I can't remember the casting# and not where I can check right now but the 75cc sounds like mine. I know they're open chamber. Was really hoping to come up with some 308s for it anyway. Speaking of.... I've got the cop car heads and a set of small valve J's. I'd trade both sets...

Not being a pest at all rick, I came here for input! Also hearing about the 69, I wonder about my motor. It was already torn down when I got it, but it came from my uncle so I know it's legit. I remember him pulling it from a diplomat cop car. It came factory with a windage tray, Molly rings...

Already planning on a Balance job

Thanks Treblig I'll definitely start looking I appreciate the link for the KB's, but that's out at least for now. I'm just trying to get this thing together on the cheap utilizing as much of the stuff I already have as possible. I just want to drive the dart again so that means the 318/727...

Is there a decent moderately priced piston with enough height to bring a 318's compression up to say 9:1 to save some machine work? Hyper or regular ole' cast either one? Thanx guys

Are these the same between early and late A's??

Thanks Jim and 72!!!:burnout:

Cool I was thinking somewhere around 1.14 maybe even a lil' more. Heck I was planning on running 1.03 with the small block. Is your sons car small block or big block?

Changing directions from small block to big block stroker and was looking for some recommendations on what t bars to run? I am looking at some of firmfeel's big bars but was wondering what the wise folks here at FABO think. Keep in mind this is in a protouring style 65 GT. Thanks in advance...

Thanx guys it's good to hear some encouraging words. I was pretty sure I was goin to end up using it but it sure helps to hear it. Even though I'm not going to be drag racing the car I would like to be able to leave hard at a light or maybe kick it sideways once in a while to show up the bowtie...

Ok so here's the deal. I was planning on putting a small block in the 65, but have since come across a good deal on some big block stuff so I'm changing dirrection. But the transmission deal has just kinda rolled over from the small block plans. I wasn't sure then and I still ain't sure now. I'm...

Thanks guys. After hearing your guys experience and reading some of the previous threads on the subject, I think I might start looking into some 18s

Thanks 67. Out of curiosity, has anyone had a chance to compare the production mustang 8s (early or later) side by side with the aftermarket black copies on eBay? I'm just wondering if I worked it out to run stock pony wheels on the front powder coated to match the aftermarkets if you could tell...

Good to see this all sorted out. Been lurking around this one for awhile. Probably gonna go with these myself as I have already decided to go with you guys on the majority of my suspension parts.

Sorry I meant 17x9 had 5.95 backspace. Man I guess I gotta do some research I was hoping to take the lazy way out on this one. Lol. Thanks for the input man!!

We'll crap the wheels I am looking into are available in a 17x8, but they have 5.95 backspace. So.... what about theses guys that are putting the mustang 5 spokes on em? Are they available in 7" cuz I can only find...

Has anybody got a 9" wide to fit up front?

As a whole I like the 4.7 in my 2000 4x4 Durango a lot. Breaks the tires loose like a champ, pulls hard and sounds pretty damn good with the stock exhaust system. It's sitting right at 220,000 miles and all it has gone through is a radiator, and two clutch fans, although I am in need of a valve...

Hey man I'm sorry ain't been on in a while. That sucks dude I'm truly sorry about the house deal. I was afraid something was up when you dropped off the radar. Anyways I hope things start looking up man let me know if there's any thing I can do.

Hey guys does anybody know if everything's ok with bad? I haven't heard from him in a while. I pmd him a couple weeks ago and never heard anything back. I just as because I see he hasn't been posting on this thread either. Hope everything's ok.

No worries man....Although im gonna have to go back through the posts and see whats up. Havent been on in quite a while and feel like im missing something. Hope everythings going alright for ya.

I have a set of identical heads. Mine are also minus the "J" and the casting number digit. I too did a fair amount of looking into this and nobody seems to have a real answer that I could find.....One of those things I guess. well good luck with the sale and if anybody knows the story, share it!

Last I checked, PAW is only an Ebay seller now and about 95% Chevy stuff.:wack: Sucks man they were the poor mans best friend!
