Nice! Here is another one of the same truck:

ok thanks!

The two most important being the middle?

Very nice work!! I am wondering what you did the crank modifications (knife edging and such)with.. A grinder? or?

Not likely unless you have a lot of core shift or are using it as an all out race engine.. With it being an earlier casting I would say you will be ok. But really you want to have it sonic checked to see how much material is left in the walls. Then you won't just be guessing.

Have it sonic checked... But I don't know why you would go .050 over. You can't get pistons in that size... Just .060 over would be better. and most 318's can handle that.. Especially the older ones.

Wow... That is a great price if they will clear..

Make some? just cut off the flange of an aluminum aftermarket set then extend as needed. Where are they hitting?

you can use a regular bolt for the lbj bolt. Just make sure it is above grade 5. and it should not be threaded all the way or it will act like a saw when it vibrates. Use a nylock nut.

Double post.

I would like to know too..

I have to go with Chip Foose on this one. "the engine is the centerpiece of the car". So don't do it black. And Green would just blend into the engine compartment. I would go orange.

Looks like a LA to me... No clue why it has those pistons though... They aren't right.

Well, I don't have a lot of time to explain why, but I wouldn't do it. the cubes gained are negligible and the difference wouldn't be noticeable unless you had REALLY good heads as they would be the big bottleneck in flow (the key to power). the rotating mass and forces will increase A lot...

Hmm... Maybe he is? I wouldn't know then... I am as confused as you are now! haha!

The main bolt (or stud in this case) is one of the things that hold the windage tray on. The only thing in some cases. You need the stud to space it right.

Well I have no first hand experience... But I would LOVE to do a build with one of these... They can handle the power. Mopar performance would sell you one that would hit 8600rpm and makes 800+ horsepower.. But I can't afford one so I guess I'll have to wait. I do know that they are the 48 deg...

That works too... But I found mine on sale so it wasn't too bad.

Nope... The 360 has a different size main bearings and the pans cannot be interchanged. Sorry. You have to get a 360 pan. And if you buy it new it comes with the pick-up you need. I got mine from mopar.

That is what I use in mine too. Works great. Yes, the zinc has been cut but I'm pretty sure it is still higher than the Gasoline oils. This is in a stock 318 by the way.
