    302s on 72 340

    That would be correct. A mill/cut of .0043" = 1 CC 10 CC's =.043" 9 CC's = .039"

    Now, you're starting to look more like a Machinist with the Micrometer, than a Garage Mechanic with the Calipers. Don't ever make that mistake again.

    Well Then, I guess I'll just have to throw out my 'Browne and Sharpe' Micrometer Set. Those Bastards never told me I could use a Dial-Caliper to measure Piston's and Cylinder Bore Holes. $2000 'Down-the-Drain'

    Cylinder Walls

    Piston Knurling Old-school Machine Shop trick. Popular in the late-1950's and 1960's. The Piston Knurling Device massaged the metal outward, and helped create an {approximately +.005"} over-sized Piston. Also, the grooves knurled into the Piston-skirt helped retain some oil for improved...

    I Take It, That You're Looking For A 'Temporary' Quick-Fix It can be done. The Cylinders {though most likely out-of-round} can be 'Flash-Honed" to create a seating finish for 'soft' Oil-Rings. Next step, get a set of 'Sealed-Power' Quick-Seating Cast Iron Rings {+.005"} over-size. It...

    Another ? about 273 heads on a 318

    The 57 CC is 'the minimum' based upon NHRA specs. Not what the Cylinder Head Combustion Chamber CC'd out at the factory.

    318 with 340x heads sluggish

    Start from the Base to determine the culprit. Possible Culprit ....... Rear End and 18" Wheels. #1 ....... What is the Tire Diameter ?

    Isky E-4 cam specs for Wedgy

    T-M-R My Father tested a bunch of them back in 1967 on a Bear Chassis Dyno for Mopar {Northeast Region}. He said that he never got a 'factory stock' 273/235 HP to get over 220 Horsepower.

    Isky E-4 cam specs for Wedgy

    Tool-Man-Mike Did anybody ever post what the Horsepower and Torque gain was with the Isky E-4 over a 'stock' 273/235 HP Camshaft. Back-in-the-Day, we dyno'd more than few stock '273 Commando' and 'Charger 273' engines. On the chassis dyno {adjusted to Flywheel HP} they were in the range of...

    Intake gasket help 318 Performer RPM

    Sounds like you probably have the Edelbrock #7276 Intake Manifold Gaskets with the 1.17" x 2.30" Port Size. Go with the Fel-Pro #1243, which have the 1.05" x 2.08" Port Size. The Fel-Pro units are designed for the smaller port Cylinder Heads, and have a better coolant port gasket-match...

    273 with 360 heads/valves

    Correct Sir I should have stated that with the 1968 and 1969 {Open Chamber 60.5 CC} Cylinder Head was to be used with the .020" Thin-Steel Head Gasket. The 1967 and earlier {Closed Chamber 57.5 CC} Cylinder Head must be used with a .039" Thick Head Gasket. Changing the Net Compression down to...
