    Small block + 4 speed build

    Small update: The block required a lot of work. Previous machine shop screwed up, one hole was sleeved and it ovalized hole next to it which required another sleeve. Both decks were canted forward and it also needed line hone. This was supposed to be machined block that was ready for assembly. I...

    Small block + 4 speed build

    I’m not worried about weight, I’m using 7/16 .120 wall pushrods in my own engine. Heavy pushrod is a good thing. I don’t have pushrods for this yet as I don’t know the length I need yet, but I was planning on getting some hardened .080” wall 5/16 pushrods in this…

    With hydraulic roller cam and lifters?

    Small block + 4 speed build

    Block is now bare and at machine shop. It was machined before tear down and assembled. It sat with iron heads torqued down for a few years, no heat cycles. I will know this week if decks are flat or not and decide what to do. I kind of like to get my numbers where I want them... Some progress...

    Small block + 4 speed build

    Pistons are .01” down the hole. I was targeting .045” piston to head distance so will take off .005”. Block was machined before. Frankly I’m debating with myself weather not to leave it as is. With 1008 head gasket it puts me at .049” piston to head distance which is not bad at all. Will be...

    1000hp 727 full manual build

    For sure less rotating weight is a good thing. I will get it when I order billet input shaft and hub. This should be last step for me, but I'm swapping these only when trans needs to get off the car ;-)

    It also looks cool ;-) ;-)

    I am doing all the stuff because my son is very often in the passengers seat. Want to minimize risk mostly because of him

    So aftermarket front drum can still explode? I was reading somewhere that factory drum explodes arouns 13000rpm and A&A billet steel gets deformed at over 30000 but does not explode... I have expired csr carbon fiber shield that I could put on if needed, should I after all these upgrades?

    So how is longevity of aluminium drums? Do they get wear marks from steels inside? Whats your experience?

    1000hp 727 full manual build

    You should focus on stuff not exploding for your own safety, so billet front drum and low band apply vb would be mandatory I guess. The rest is really not must have if you are willing to look into the transmission more often.

    Nice, do you know the specifics? What did they modify in the transmission exactly?

    1000hp 727 full manual build

    This season my car will see track 3 to 5 times tops only for some tuning sessions. I want this car to be effective on the street, thats my biggest goal given local reality. Tracks where I am have no prepped surface at all, just some rubber that cars left and thats it. Thats why no trans brake...

    For now with 470ci input and output shafts should live even with some nitrous. I’m using controller with softened nitrous hit. With new 500ci bottom end ready I will have perfect opportunity to swap last weak points in the trans. This is around 1700$ more added to what is already on the list...

    1000hp 727 full manual build

    Thank you, I must learn to search better instead of duplicating content here. Yes I was mentioning Chris Andrews and yes my wallet will be smashed by this but its not like I have a choice. I wanted to do this gradually but I realized it makes no sense at all. This is why I decided to build my...

    1000hp 727 full manual build

    Yes if needed, at this point I am willing to add whatever is needed to do it as well as possible without comming back to it anytime soon. Frankly when I think about pain of removing my transmission, I'm motivated to do it right.

    Seems like everything used here will be a&a. The vb I had worked flawless for so many years its really impressive.

    1000hp 727 full manual build

    There will be photos here, all parts listed etc. Thats the plan and only reason for opening this thread. Counting on Chris to provide the parts and also most importantly insight into all this, we already talked. Initially I didn't want to do all stuff at once because of cost of all this but...

    The core I have has these red servos and I was thinking about swapping ones I have with these. My unit (the one I will be upgrading) has K029 reverse servo and aluminium retainer for it plus K080 front servo both made by Superior. Hope these are better than red Sonnax? My unt has 4,2 ratio...

    Hi Yet another build thread from my side, this time it will be transmission. What would you guys use to build 727 that can live behind 1000hp nitrous combo street strip Duster? Car weight is 3250lbs with driver, engine is 500ci 12:1 solid roller dual dominator tunnel ram combo with small wet...

    Not so much a clone Hemi Dart

    Wow very clean! Yes it was making 1100 n/a and 1500 with nitrous.

    Not so much a clone Hemi Dart

    Yes all top end is Indy here. Material used to cast these valve covers is very porous, these valve covers look very nice but up close it’s pretty obvious even after tumble polishing. Best et for this car was 8:00 but now it’s time to make it more „usable”. There is still full interior in, cage...

    Not so much a clone Hemi Dart

    Yes I put the 605 back in the Coronet today and installing headers was a piece of cake! Took me 5 hrs to install trans, engine and bolt in all in place, hook up gas lines and 95% of all needed stuff. My personal record!

    Not so much a clone Hemi Dart

    I always wondered how rough is life with Hemi in A-Body... I mean big block is not fun at all but I still am tempted to go Hemi in my Duster. I recently finshed building 605ci based on Mega block with Indy cnc heads and tunnel ram, also Milodon gear drive on it. Its now topped with 2 King Demons...

    I like your cam more than the one I got but it was too good deal to pass. Lots of port work on W2s? Aluminium or cast iron?

    I do that every time. Some of these blocks are all over the place.

    Small block + 4 speed build

    I will probably do that as I want to deck it anyway, the same money where I am. This way I can skip 170$ cometic .027 head gaskets and use standard 1008 felpro.

    Small block + 4 speed build

    I have 2 types of connecting rods that could be used for this: Eagle SIR 6123CB I beams and Eagle 6123C3D H beams. I like the weight of these I beams but I'm a bit worried these are too weak for this build. Eagle rates these I beams to 500hp and 6000rpm, which seems conservative? Anybody has...

    Small block + 4 speed build

    OK I ordered the same pistons you are running. Decided to use the Hughes cam 238/242@.050” 109lsa, 104 intake centerline, cam came with factory style lifters but slow bleed version from Hughes to save some budget as it was a great deal. This will have decent .578’/.587” lift with 1.6 ratio...
