I'm tearing down my 360 to address a spun bearing problem, and I thought I'd try to figure out what converter I have. (I bought the whole drivetrain used, so it's been a detective game.) The only markings are these numbers on the crank hub: C300 2601. It has 3/8" bolt holes. It measures 9...

I love videos like this. No actors here, just all talent and skill.

Looks like there was some kind of contest going on here. :lol:

I'll be checking everything, just like a new build. Heck, it's out and on the stand. Plus, what else does this retired guy have to do all winter? :lol:

Thinking about that, it could've been remnants of the assembly lube.

We’ll check into that possibility. I would think if 7 were bent, the bearing wear would be abnormal. It’s ok. Twisted, maybe? I would still expect some abnormal wear on the rod(s) and/or bearing(s). It’s still something to look into. Edit: Also, Abby Normal piston skirt wear, as I was reading...

I used Plastigage. I can see it not being as accurate as a mic and a bore gage. I used the latter on the cylinders and pistons. I'll have to see if I can cover 2-3 with it. (Excuse the italics, I have no idea what button I hit.) Thanks for the heads up on bearings. Yes, that rod was .002...

A measuring we will go. I'll be doing the cleaning. That's one aspect I'm familiar with. I'm hoping the crank I have now can be saved. Looks worse in the picture than it is, I think. .002" I'll get back when I have more info. Thanks everyone for getting me going in the right direction.

Hi Steve. I hoped that fire isn't affecting you. I hear you on the Kings. The bearings in it are Clevite 77's. Would you happen to know if they're comparable? I just did a little searching about bearings; there's a bunch to learn! I'm curious as to what the machine shop has to say. I would...

I bought a used 360 w/ balanced stock rods and crank, KB191's (measured 10.9:1), 292* .508 purple cam, and ported 915's w/ 2.02 intakes. It has run mostly 11.90's in a 3000# (at the line) Duster. I took it apart to see what was in it, and check it out when I bought it, because the guy I bought...

We’ll, OP checked in this morning. Still no comment. ‍

I would think that it takes a certain type of personality to handle that kind of work. I couldn't do it. It would be interesting to learn the history of that kind of work. I mean, somebody had to design all of that stuff knowing that someone was going to have to put it together.

Watch this on the biggest screen you can.

Funny how you can tell an employer from an employee, huh?

I've never used them, but Shoemaker's Automotive Machine Shop is in Clermont. You're in Somers's Point? I'm pulling my engine now; I have a knock and bearing material in the filter. I've been thinking of contacting them. I don't know of any others in the area. Searching, I see they're on...

OP MIA.

Yes, it is getting better. As far as the lights (rt) go, when I went last month, and the first pass on the 19th, I was watching the tach to see what the convertor flashed to. (about 4k). Those last three runs on the 19th were the first runs I've tried to cut a light in 30 years, when they...

I last went 9-13-24. Here's the thread- Cecil County 9-13-24 A bunch of stuff on there. I'm trying to simplify now, lol. This time I got 4 runs. The D.A. is written on the slips. I made all runs the same except for this: I had my pin-on glass hood "floating" at the back.. I.E. longer...

Terrible thing. Seemed like a good guy. Godspeed. Anyone know what happened? He just posted this morning.

Beautiful colors. And the chrome headers flow to the chrome ladder bars just right. Photographer got it just right.

World's first photoshop? hahahahaha But you have to give the people that do this stuff a lot of credit. (If it's real, hard to say.) That takes talent! I'd love to be able to see the rest of the car.

Here's an example of a NICE car. It's not a Mopar, and it's not a muscle car. I don't know what it's worth. It was in a museum for 61 years and looks almost new! It'll have issues as a result of sitting for so long, but it's nice. I just happen to see it on that site. I like dreaming. lol...

My point being, an $80,000 car wouldn't have issues like that. Plus, what other work is half-a**ed?

318? Better be orig 440 with verrrry low miles, which, of course, it ain't.

What's with the parking brake stuff in this picture? Hard to see, but it looks rigged. Also, the wiper motor and wiring on the firewall don't look like 80K. Seems these dealer cars are always "smoothed over". Where's the trunk floor and floor pan pics?

"Help me buy an $80,000 car" I don't see one. At least I hope I don't.

I'm not familiar with Google Play. I'll look into it. I think that's the link I posted. It's spelled, airdensityonline.

I guess you'd have to know if the air coming in the scoop would go down through the holes, or, would the hot under hood air come up in the scoop?

Is this usable? Maybe just an additional source of info? Cecil County Dragway - Rising Sun, Maryland - Engine Tuning Weather

If I raced more, and had the $$, I'd definitely go enclosed, with some kind of ability to sleep and eat. Hotels and restaurants are a pain. As others have mentioned, you can carry spares, tools and it provides shelter for people and the cart. Don't have to unload/load constantly. I won't...
