Well this thread certainly isn't helping MSD sales

Bewy it has two wires that go straight from the distributor into the msd 6 box. It's not a 6al Just a plain 6 box. So yeah it would be voltage sensitive Car has a brand new battery 2 months ago. And its always on a battery tender when I don't drive it. It hasn't shown low voltage...

I understand why people say =may die suddenly A friend just told me he parked his car for winter and then his msd coil died too

SOLVED! My MSD blaster 2 Coil was weak Once I swapped it ,instantly stopped missing, and I was able to get the timing back down where it should be. Bewy vacuum came up, it's at about 12 now I'll recheck it soon Thanks everyone! I really appreciate all your responses

Yes Bewy I read it. It sounds like I may need a HEI type distributor or an adjustable box Im gonna research that more

Ok my friends, I took a moment and used a piston stop tool . I rotated my engine by hand till it touched the piston and stopped. Made a mark on my balancer, then rotated it backwards and made a mark on my balancer , and well what ended being in the center is the top dead center mark I was...

Ok here's something we never talked about My main body upgrade has primary jets 72 primary and 84 secondary That's probably overkill and not helping. .I have a set of 67 and 76 I will put in.

I can get NGK 2238 in heat range 5. It has the 5/8 socket for my headers. So for the ease alone of not fighting the 13/16 between those pipes it's a good idea. My old 360 has NGK and it never had fouled plugs. The champions everyone recommended the parts store wants me to order a case of 24...

The heads where redone and they got new bronze valve guides installed. Brand new valves from Hughes engines. There's no slop there. It could be poor audio from my cheesy camera. I can plug my stethoscope on and listen

here's a video showing what the car is doing Details on the engine answers to some of your questions, I haven't tried all of your suggestions yet, but quite a few In this video I lean it out and try taking the timing right down to 5 degrees at about 600 rpm and even if I take the timing all...

Excellent is that the 5/8 one ? Cause the big 13/16 ones are impossible for that driver side rear #7 between the headers Hey I am making a video , off exactly what I have , what is happening and trying all of your ideas everyone I really appreciate the help!

Awesome advice. I'm gonna try those suggestions for sure. I'll try to get video of what's happening

At idle and lower rpm it happens Just a pic to show you what the engine looks like. I know it's incomplete and the linkages aren't on in the pic. It's got a factory mechanical fuel pump I had a machine shop do the heads and they have brand new comp valve springs. I cc them and there was no leaks

What my vaccum guage shows with timing set around 18 initial and my carb leaned as per Holley and idling around 850rpm

I have super thick gaskets and locking bolts. The exhaust is super tight. All brand new. It's like a misfire or unburned fuel Nothing backfires through the carb

Hi, just trying to fine tune a 360 with about 10.5 compression. Iron J heads 2.02 . Medium cam lunati 703. I get a pop pop at random in the exhaust. I have the timing set around 18 degrees intial. It doesn't seem to matter where I advance or retard it too. I get a random pop pop...

Yes I got the running time done. I've gone to a flexible rad hose. Doesn't look like the factory molded hose. But I need it to work. I'd have to get a molded one custom made. I'm waiting on a 16" fan I like the advice and feedback I get here ! I will get this car out to events this year and...

I made a little show about diy Mopars Here is the first startup of my 360 0.60 over KB107, lunatic voodoo cam, ported J heads 2.02 valved Not my most exciting video, but it shows how you can expect the unexpected, and plow through at home

Checkout my channel, my idea has been to show people what average Joes can do at home without a big shop, or sponsors. Highlights the trials and ingenuity. Taking things next level always improving. Sharing tips I learn along the way to help the next guy

I want to know what stall I have on my A904 so I can choose an appropriate camshaft Ok I removed this torque converter it has markings on it painted and stamped 90P Also stamped on it 12432 9586 A436 No brand name Thank you

Ok, Im wondering if I can't get the machine shop to deal with this, going to a thicker head gasket for extra room Interesting your pistons collided with factory head I need to figure out how tight this really is

Do you know how high it came out? Was it the factory heads ?

Ok so moving pistons around didn't change anything. No 2. Is about .008 out of the whole no.4 is about .004 out of the hole, no 6 is about .003 and no 8 is flush. The other side around .015 -.013 depending So it's not as bad as my initial measurements

Ok, so I have put pistons in all corners. I have remeasured , Cyl 1 is about .014 down , cyl 7 about .014 down Cyl 2 is .008 up and cyl 8 is perfectly even with the deck.

They cleaned the deck and didn't say how much

Ok I'll put the corner pistons in soon and let you guys know

Yes it appears to me that one sticks out that much and the other is below that much. Thank you! The shop that took my j heads and installed 2.02 valves for me machined them a bit they are shiny and straight. I have no way of knowing how much they took off and if it's still safe.

I have a 360 La block. (Factory crank and rods , resized and balanced) I have begun installing my kb107 pistons and I notice the first one number 1 is almost flush with the deck. The number 2 piston actually sticks up. (I'm not exactly sure my written numbers on them are accurate with a...

I've got also autolite 65 plugs going to start there and evaluate if I would benefit from colder plugs later I've got a set of Fel pro 1008 head gaskets I hope are suitable. doing as much as I can myself to save cost.

Here's a look at Ansen Sprints on my Swinger Im trying out the idea of my own little show. If people like it and subscribe I'll give it a real serious go. I've got a few episodes up I'm planning on before and afters, attempts to validate performance modifications and experiments. but with a...
