    Strange Oil Leak

    The motor was rebuilt less than 10,000 miles ago. When it was done, new pistons and rings were installed. The head gasket is not blown. I just had the heads off, and everything was fine. I will check to make sure the PCV / hose is clear. Is it a must to have a breather and PCV valve both? I...

    Strange Oil Leak

    Hello all, I have a 318 with an edelbrock carb and intake that is leaking oil in a very strange way. The block seems to be pressurizing and as a result is blowing oil out of the dipstick tube and around the valve cover gaskets. If I take the PCV valve out the block does not pressurize and...

When I was finished I set the timing to 8 degrees advanced and idle adjustment and had it running pretty well. It was a little hard to start, but overall it ran well. I drove...

    Timing/ Tuning a '73 318

    I messed up and did not do a compression test before and I have not done one since. I should elaborate a bit on what happened. It overheated and did not actually blow a head gasket, It had water in the oil but it was from an incorrectly installed intake. The main bearings were bad but they did...

    Timing/ Tuning a '73 318

    I need help! I am working on a '73 dart swinger with the factory 318. The car overheated a while back and has had the head gaskets replaced by me just recently. After completing the work it's just not quite running right. I have had the car for several years and I feel I have never had it...
