Not to Hi-jack the thread but .................You sure do nice work CudaChick.

What Scampmike said, make sure you have a good oil in there and make sure it has zinc. Most of the newer oils don't have zinc and you will wipe out your cam lobes. You can buy it separately and add it to all the autozone sold stuff later. Good luck

Depending how creative you want to get, you could always do something like I did...it's hard to see the Alternator but it's down there. And yes, it's a Meziere Remote Pump.

I gave a running 318 away FREE when I started my Duster project. So I can't think it's worth much or I'm just real generous.

I have to agree with going with Bloomer Performance, I got a Forged 4.00" crank and Compstar Rods from him and I already had the Diamond pistons.

Tony at Mirror finish polishing quoted me $390 for the Indy Mod Man Intake and the valve covers were $155 ea...kind of expensive but I had to do it once I looked at some of there work they have pics of on their website. Turn around was 4 weeks.

Here's a link to there website...Send them pictures of what you have and they will give you a price quote based on the photos and work involved...Here's how they recieved them from me. Now I think I will send out the Indy Mod man intake so everything matches up. I'm going to have them Clear...

They will polish.....of course, I had them professionally done.

Heres a picture of a set I found that look nice and shiny. He said he polished them after milling off the fins.....So I'm gonna give it my best effort to match the look of these before I resort to paint.

Thanks Replicar, I appreciate the help....I actually plan on modifying them as soon as I pull them out of the Box.....Milling off the fins and logo,stripping off the Black paint and polishing the living crap out of them, then get them Clear Anodized to protect them. Here is the motor there going...

Thanks Jim

Does any have a set of Mopar Performance wide valve covers part# P4876124 that they could measure and give me the overall height, I assume there around 3" but would like to know for sure before spending $300.00.Thanks.

I wish I had the Mod Man Multi-port intake before I post these pics but I'm kinda pumped about todays delivery so without further delay here is another cool engine add on part for the 416 to make it stand out a little more. Dual Polished FAST EFI throttle bodies (1375 CFM each) FAST Dual sync...

I considered a Cam cover but optioned not to do it, I have never had to pull a cam in the car before and hopefully don't have to start on this project....so It got scratched from the idea. I believe my offset is 2" but my motor is also raised in the HemiDenny K frame almost 1" for ground...

That's why I decided to square off the timing cover instead of the traditional Small Block shaped one...once complete I'm hope people will stare at it and wonder what the heck motor it is. I can just hear the stories now...someone will be telling there grandson "I had a motor just like that back...

Already got that accomplished...I took one like in the picture and just used the black pointer part not the aluminum bracket. If you look close at the front of the cover you see two holes that are where the pointer will go, it will still be adjustable like before, I dont want to drill and tap...

Thanks for the comments...Today I notched the inset the motor mount arms and adjusted some of the gaps and angles, Now everything lines up nice. I need to get the Billet-Tech alternator and aluminum KRC P/S pump so I can figure out a low but cool way to mount them. Tomorrow I will machine in the...

I'm gonna but some type of coating on everything once I'm done, theres no way I'm gonna polish all this stuff. Either anodizing or powder coating...maybe a nice Titanium color

I had a 14"x24"x3" chunk of 6061 T-6 Aluminum I bought 10 years ago for a project that never got off the ground.....so it was finally used for a good purpose. Now when I buy the aluminum for the billet valve covers I plan on carving out of solid stock that will be a different story. I have...

I thought I would post the pictures of the Billet Aluminum Timing chain cover and motor mount combo I just made. I still have some minor machining work to do on it, once complete the motor mount ears will be flush with the block cover. I really don't like the way the Edelbrock RPM head overhang...

Heres what I had in my 76' Power Wagon, the 416 going in my Duster project will be even more unique.

If you want real nice valve covers that are nice quality and don't have bolt holes that look like after thoughts, I always use ones from Unique Fabrication for big and small blocks. There not $90.00 but there made in the USA and Cost about $ 250. Heres a couple pics of them and a link to there...

I agree with the look of the bolt bores, I went with these fabricated aluminum ones a few years ago on my Power Wagon...I mounted the breathers on the inside wall and ground down all the welds then decided to paint them, the look was definatley unique and got alot of attention, people thought it...

Thanks again, I appreciate it

Is that a accurate measurement or a best guess ? I am hoping someone had a motor on a stand and readily available to get me a spot on measurement. Thanks either way

Thanks Rockerdude, I deleted the pic to avoid confussion.....I am building a LA 340 stroked not a newer Magnum engine.

Okay I know this is a off the wall question, but I am some custom parts for my 340 and the front of the heads measurement is very important and am not ready to purchase the edelbrock 60779 RPM heads I will be eventually using. But I need to know how much further the heads (especially Drivers...
