i have a tiny motor in comparison 320 ftlb max so i got rid of the six cylinder based stuff i went with a 10 inch organic plate over the orginal 9.5 size, and a clutch cover off a modern 5- 6 liter fuel injected v8 (GM holden) so for my 300 ftlb i have a modern car clutch designed for...

The clutch tamer man who posts occasionally, summed it up a while back some initial clutch slip is key to a happy trans and can get you off the line faster if it bites like a rottweiler, and you buttock lifts from the seat base and the seat back groans when you try to press the peddle down...

yeah just replaced gasket on my hemi 6, uses the same set up more or less, no brass washer in the middle but all else much the same. even with a blown out gasket at the exhaust header of no.5 and no. 6 those nuts were still on and were reassuringly tight. caused my own pain here by re-using...

have a chat with paul cangialosi he seems to have little problem in finding diverse gear sets for all sorts of 4 and 5 speed boxes i.e he has contacts granted some of this stuff comes from taiwan and korea BUT he's the kinda guy who aint gonna promote JUNK look up paul cangialosi gearbox...

Yeah can greatly increase chances of success. before you bolt the top on, paint a white line on each pushrod in a position you can see slime the lifters and cam lobes with assembly lube. with the plugs out turn the motor over the correct way with a big breaker get 20 or 30 revolutions on it if...

id want aftermarket over new old stock any day materials and processing have come on in leaps and bounds over the last 50+ years

More compression and higher velocity through the carb = success in my view In my book that means small carb, well matched small runners, small ports, small valves, big capacity = superlative operation at smaller rpm never built a 318 never owned more than 6 cylinders in one motor. but i...

these guys http://www.sankei-555.com Used to make metal on metal ball joints under their own 555 brand and for many many other companies for reboxing as their own parts. i have 555 lowers and they are pretty damn good. obviously mine have an adjusted design for RHD, slightly different...

are you missing your hot box gasket? fits between intake and exhaust at the heat transfer box some of them also have a metal shim to direct the heat and facilitate the use of a flap that moved by a heat sensitive coil spring to basically switch the heat transfer box off and on, and you use 2...

dunno about head gaskets but i have never had a problem with the aftermarket Expanded graphite on a perforated steel shim inlet and exhaust gaskets. specifically designed for joints that Might move or are less than perfect great conformity to the clamped surface. so when used with a nice...

potentially run at max torque for hours and hours, great potential for oil longevity provided you have good rings and a filter. i.e no short runs spend most if its running life at optimum temperature, any in-block condensation driven off pretty smartly every use, Being on or close to the...

even if they were adequate to start with, castings move and change shape for years until they "season" or Work Harden. especially when vibrated or heated or machined or all 3 or any combination small block connecting rods on the other hand..... the small end is often not in the middle of the...

More efficient burn, will illustrate shortcomings in mixture if there is still time left to be producing power it should be used. what was adequate on the fueling front no longer appears to be adequate with the symptom you mention. (although air leak at inlet or around exhaust, manifold could...

if your front disks don't stop you it could be a number of things as stated above i'll sling in a couple more... if the pedal travel is short and the brakes feel a bit like wooden blocks your master cylinder bore is too great. you end up with little brake feel and the fat cylinder is not...

believe this is appropriate for both mopar and HEI. on the approach the reluctor peak causes the voltage to swing low and the low dip gets bigger the closer the reluctor vane gets to the pickup centre when aligned though, its at zero because the voltage has to change direction when the...

just to note, and it probably won't be useful with a set of disk brake spindles that match you upper balljoint you can have any combination of big or small bolt pattern hubs or big or small top balljoint with a caliper pads and rotor that fits a 14 inch wheel its just hard work and you...

I have had the exhaust valves done but i had bigger valves fitted at the same time, the shop seemed very keen to relive me of my money and at the time i was not in a position to argue the toss. if you fit stainless valves, the chances of them micro welding repeatedly to the seats in a cast...

i had this stored on my work laptop cut and paste it save it as a .CSV and it might open in excel or sheets in some semblance of sensible could not work out how to attach the original to this post so had to pull the data out S/No,Model,Year,Engine,Cfm Comp,9263 Comp,9410,OE,400...

i think it could potentially be in the tune. i went from 1/2 - 3/4 gauge reading down to 1/4-half gauge reading with a recurve dizzy new carbs and a better exhaust tuned up right. Or a problem with the stat or cap Or not necessarily the cap, the lugs on the cap and the filler spout profile...

When it comes to Ricks parts i've never had a problem. really really helpful, and he owns an Aussie charger amongst a range of other mopars..... so he is obviously a good guy.... In this day and age, if you want a Chinese company to make a pre existing product line, to your own specification...

if the car is manual this may be useful if its not i'll agree something else is wrong on the electrical side of things .... Your alternator can, at the point of an unexpected switch off, produce a spike in the electrical system. when running, the armature in the middle, has a current...

or you could make or purchase something like this this one fits a hemi 6 but you have main caps in a different place in a slant 6 so some new holes and some ARP washers under the bolt head onto the bracket might have this working. not as effective as a full scraper set-up but combined with...

Did you buy a new water pump? are the outlets in the right place? i.e do you have a 318 340 one or do you have a magnum style one which is designed to turn the other way due to the different belt route on those later motors. if its running the wrong way it won't work, but your symptoms would...

For flow to exist there has to be a difference in pressure in the system between inlet and outlet of the pump.... Doesn't matter how it is created or the type of pump. It's all about pump induced pressure at the inlet and outlet being different, lower at inlet than the outlet means we can assign...

I have to disagree on one point To circulate the coolant, the pump must produce a pressure difference between inlet and outlet otherwise it ceases to be a pump. The pump producing a pressure difference has to be "a thing" in order to get some coolant circulation. some pressure is also necessary...

method as specified in a chrysler Australia tech bulletin for Hemi 265 https://www.geocities.ws/drhemi.geo/camfloat.html I didn't bother with the screw. too much hassle. things have moved on since 1976. I used a 3 bolt cam, machined a Nylon? big block cam button and stuck it in the...

its worthwhile scanning ebay for an alignment kit from the 70s one that uses wheel clamps that only go as big as 15 inch. i.e useless to most workshops these days because cars have bigger wheels i picked up a set near where i live in the UK for £50 swivel plates 2 wheel clamps 2 long...

the "not allowed at the track argument" is usually its more slippery so more dangerous if spilled its flammable. which doesn't make much sense waterless coolant is propylene glycol Normal coolant is 40-60% ethylene glycol both glycols are flammable if you try hard enough propylene glycol...

screw in injector boss Screw in set 8 billet fuel injector boss for EFI conversion | Aussiespeed Street & Racing Products Australia can add injection to any manifold with space enough on the inlet runner jig it, drill it, tap it, done.

check earth strap from motor to chassis/mount back plate. i.e make sure the chassis end is bolted on on the chassis side of the rubber insulator check the battery + connector. if its a clamp to wire fitment, rather then a soldered and crimped original check its all good under the clamp set...
