Definatly horsepower to be gained or lost with spacers. Have seen it first hand on the dyno.

Yes. You have to run alot of fuel pressure an make sure it doesnt bleed off to. Run my moter 7000rpm for about 60 seconds an the first thing was a high flow fuel pump

Interesting subject. In our racing asocation we are restricted to av gas. Always wondered how high I could go with the compression? Right now running about 14 to 1 with no problems. Many said it would not live. Believe as long as you get the squish right you can run alot of compression an that...

AV gas

Are you sure the cubes are 396? Maybe 392? I run a similar set up in a race boat. W2s an 14 to 1 compression. on the dyno it was 651 horses at 7000. Think you can run pump gas at your compression if you get the squish right.

Yes i have to run spacers on mine. i do not recomend double gaskets with out the shim because it wont be long till there leaking or tightened down till they hit.

I am running w2,s on mine

Has any body ran a 416 an a 392? Is there a noticable differance? How about a 408? I am running a 392 an am allowed up to 412 in my class. Looking at possibly a 408 just wondering how much I would gain?

the better they flow the more you get. hard to say without seeing what you have.

I was wondering about moving the the oil pressure line to get a better reading. Have you ever did this or heard of any one doing it? would also like to talk to Ryan about this dry sump set up?

Yes I would like to talk with Ryan. Do you have an email or phone number for him? Bet by now your thinking if I set it a little closer to the computar you will be able to see it. Just trying to learn as much as possible before I put it back together. What kind of oil do you run? I have been...

I will try your 3/4 bearings next time. Have always used full but finding there is alot to learn about mopar. Never have used a scrapper before an want to look into that to along with a different pan an a windage tray. How tight are you torching the mains? How tight on the rods? Do you know...

I didnt mean that 3 was ok. They all were starved an 2 an 4 were so bad they spun. The second time you could really see it bad on number 1 so think that this crossover tube should fix that problem. Seems weird that it gets the mains an not the rods or maybe have just caught it before they get...

Yeah it is pretty fustrating when she comes apart. I am past the plastigage stage. What is the difference between lifter bore bushing an the tube? doesnt it acomplish the same thing? I have the right side tubed an the other side blocked. Would this not be the same? The two main I lost were 2 an...

h had 85# of oil pressure if i remember right an pleanty of heat. First big mopar I have ever tried to build. I do enjoy building the moter as much as racing. I wont learn anything if I send it out an have some one else build it. the first couple of Chevys I built had problems too but now I am...

dont happen to remember were you seen it?

yes you know anybody in Idaho

the block was tubed, notched for the stroker, an the oil filter housing cut back for the dry sump setup when i got the moter. i did not do any more to it the first time i put it toghether. they had let the valves get out of adjustment an lost one when i got it. second time i turned an straitened...

yes they were a little looser

yes it spun perfect. measured everything. wondering if it might be the pan? running it in a sprint boat, with sharp turns left an right. live in a small town in idaho an every moter builder i have talked to in my area has never done much with small block mopar when it gets much past stock

I am running a roller top end an have blocked off one of the galleries.could you elaborate a little about the plug at the dist. have a dry sump oil pump so the gear is on the distributer instead of a shaft.

36 is where the timing is at. ithink that shopuld be good. where were you at on the timing?

spun a couple mains first time. had crank turned an straitened+ line honed. second time i caught quicker. was just starting to eat them. i am thinking starvation but wondering how to fix it second time warmed up really good, checked the filter,was good. ran it around gradually increasing the...

Iam running a 392 stroker moter in a race boat an have lost the bottem end twice. it lookes to me like a starvation issue. i believe i have made all the oil mods needed for this block. i am only turning the moter 68oo an cant figure out whats going on. i have had my navigaters eyes glued to the...
