My best advice is to follow the advice of SSDan. He is most often correct.

Is it a super six carb? Or 318?

Make sure your module and engine have a good solid ground to the chassis. Start the engine, look at all your ignition wiring for arcing (sparks), listen for popping sounds (arcing). now wiggle the wires going to the ballast resistor, ignition module, distributor, and coil. You might have a...

I took .030 off mine (was free and what I could afford at the time), and ended up just shy of 8 to 1. 7.97 or something like that.

Actually, there are a lot of reasons to use the super six carb. Subtle differences make it ideal for the six, smaller venturis, different pump cam profile, and Teflon coated shafts. The 318 carb works, the super six carb works better

yes you are correct, my linkage is a little different from stock because of the headers. yours will line up with the throttle cable. as far as the carb numbers, I don't have a clue to what they are. maybe someone else can tell you what car that carb originally came on. to your original question...

I have seen the one barrel kick down rod rebent to work fine on a super six. You also want to Pull the throttle cable from the V8 car, it's a little shorter,fits better.

Let me ask you, how much experience do you have at this sort of thing?:???: does your carb look like the one pictured?

Take some pictures, let us see what you have. I don't think they used a lean burn on the super six.

Actually, the super six carb is a great little carb. Perfect for a stock to very mild 225. Subtle differences from the 318 version are the key, the pump cam has a different profile smaller venturis, Teflon coated shafts. http://www.imperialclub.com/Repair/Lit/Films/348/. If you have a genuine...

I wouldn't be afraid to reuse steel gasket. it will save you a loss of compression with the newer style gaskets

Yes, but you must use the correct rocker arms for your cam and lifters. Solid or Hydraulic.

Get a new dampner. Slant six dampners were notorious for slipping. The rubber ring debonds from the core,once this happens it will keep slipping. Eventually it will come apart. If it's running at the time, it could do some major damage. I had similar problems with mine and once I swapped it out...

yea, it is different. although you can use the long rod from a one barrel on the super six, I've seen it done. you just have to "modify" the bends a bit:thumblef:

that will be gone by the end of the day. you ask the seller for a cut:thumblef:

if the OP is from Australia, and it looks like he is, that oil filter and clutch fork would be normal

with an all stock setup, all you really need to do is up-size your exhaust from the 1 7/8" pipe to a 2 1/4" pipe from the manifold back. don't know about HP number gains but you should feel the difference.

I have also heard that you can use the kickdown cable from a Dakota. not sure of the specifics. you might do a search, here and on .org

if it only happens when it warms up it could be a bad coil.

mine was connected to a nipple on the fuel pump, into the crank case. I just capped it off at the fuel pump when I installed a super six on it.

keep in mind that anytime a liquid (gas) evaporates (atomizes), it cools. think swamp cooler. if you don't maintain some heat it becomes harder for the fuel to atomize. even in the desert. notice that I live in Las Vegas, also the desert. by using manifold heat it gives you a more constant...

you don't necessarily need EGR but you DO need manifold heat. http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=119527&highlight=manifold+heat and http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=59985&highlight=manifold+heat&page=2

I have a 6 blade flex fan if you want to go that route. what part of cali are you?

that's what I was looking for, just couldn't find them. Thanks

I believe it is a 3/8" npt thread

i have lost compression in one cylinder. without opening it up (yet) i have determined is is likely a broken ring. all i can find is cast rings on ebay. what is a good source for new moly rings. .030 over

it may be that the balancer has slipped. put the timing mark on tdc. make sure you are on the compression stroke. install the dizzy. the rotor should be at about the 4:30 position.

I read somewhere (cant find it now) that the super six BBD has Teflon coated shafts, you might want to use a scotchbrite pad to clean the shafts.

I actualy have two.....your choice
