I missed stock bottom end. Then you want a Whiplash camshaft from Hughes performance. That would run up the compression the best, BUT the two camshafts I quoted literally would, "more interested in power when I stomp on it- so something that won't be a complete dog with the lowly stock...

I disagree with your choices, and many of the suggestions. An advertised 206/212 camshaft or Crane's 693901 (Crane 693902 with lifters) for a HEAVY CAR, that CRUISES, with throttle response. Having more horsepower at top end doesn't fit this description. the crane has torque come on at idle, or...

With Respect Rob. Fair Warning. Barbasol -> "One of the most popular shaving creams for men – Gillette, is also one of the most harmful one, along with Nivea Men, Barbasol and many other popular brands packed. These are packed with fragrance, phthalates, SLS and other toxic ingredients that can...

Not with Edelbrock. Edelbrock doesn't sell enough SBM heads to look back on quality control or care for their few customers within this slice of the market. Edelbrock literally throws mud into the eye of the adage that "American made is better" when regarding their SBM heads versus other...

THAT is NOT what I said. I said he figured out from racing, by accident, that a carb that they used which produced large droplets, WORKED with a SPECIFIC COMBUSTION CHAMBER. What the hell is the matter with you? Don't misquote people. That is liberal manipulation. That **** doesn't fly.

David Vizard covers fuel atomization where large droplets DO work with specific (some would label insufficient) combustion chambers. His experience with this subject came from Mini (Cooper?) racing in the 60's or 70's. One combustion chamber needed large droplets of fuel for the most power...

That's what I need!

It must not get hot where you yankees live. That radiator just doesn't cut it in the deep South (ern States) where I have mostly lived (includes humidity, but mostly days 90-110 degrees). When I see those 22" radiators it blows my mind. Maybe RRR got them to work near Mildredge, GA but all of my...

I like the Speed Master Cylinder Head suggestion allot. It is a baseline upgrade option besides magnums, rare W2's (good luck finding afffordable rockers), rare RHS's, and the latest out of production heads: Engine Quests.

Respectfully request: .060" max overbore NO offset grinding crankshaft Are Solid Rollers going to be allowed??

Is there a way to follow Chad Speier?

Please take a look at some of IQ52’s ‘stock’ head/stroke builds. I wanna say he broke past 700hp with a 440. But it has been years since he competed and when I read about the statistics. With stock cylinder heads and stroke, that is really moving some air. You said that you don’t concede to...

Using Speedmaster opens the contest to everyone financially versus W2/Brodix/Indybrock, $, W5, W9. Magnums & LA’s are relatively Available/cheap (my guess) everywhere. But as devil’s advocate, there are (seems like) more 440’s for sale here in Texas than all the abodies ever made. So...

What was the “low rise DQ?” Down here in the 75 degree weather :poke:(, it means Dairy Queen!

We the People of FABO, whom hold these truths (That Mopar is the best) to be self evident…

No W2’s brother. We may have them, but so few people do.

What if we used the speedmaster magnum clones or aluminum heads? They are cheap enough for many enthusiasts.

It’s too bad IQ52 retired. He was an expert within your parameters and would dominate the field-no offense. When we look back he has built many engines within most of your requirements and his/& his son’s ability to port stock iron BBM heads is phenomenal. I wish he would participate one more...

I had to fix a coolant leak and replace pulleys on my 73 road runner. I decided to put headers on my car while it was in my grandfather's shop. Previous years I (randomly,ignorantly) bought hooker headers ($200 every time) multiple times for my Mopars. I tried to install these used hookers (I...

Yes sir, but the website doesn't describe the fitment, or the experience you guys have with installation & performance, and say driving down the road and grinding the headers. One guy on here was saying his blackjack header installation was much worse than previous header installations. What the...

toolmanmike: "Yep, nothing wrong with lightening the stock rods but it takes time. If you do it yourself and your time isn't worth anything then go for it. But, in addition to sanding the beams with a belt sander, they still should be sized with new bolts and balanced. At machine shop labor...

Both and anyone. Please and thank you! I am here to learn and pursue the hobby. Keyboard commando is what inkjunkie called it, but that's what I am. Retired from submarines so I have bought the magazines, the books (for deployment), and now I have time to really pursue the hobby. (I bet that...

He said he made a bunch of mistakes earlier. PLEASE explain to me how did he recover..? I was under the impression that these heads don't have alot?/as-much? metal to remove as the typical 340/360 iron head. Did he remove even more metal to fix his ?loss of swirl? and/or metal-removing which...

Yeah I knew you had to check them, am wondering if they make pistons for their 18 degree heads. Rat you have decades more experience than I do, but I bet YOU could find something in summit webpages, with 1/24th the time of porting the first intake runner of a 302 head!!! ROFL

I am going to go out on a limb with my imagination here. : 1. That stroke is similar to the SBC 350. 2. People here, including me have purchased connecting rods for mopar cranks with the chevy wrist pin size on the small end. This could open up some piston options, like for example the 327 chevy...

I question this. In reality, even with 13% more gear with a 5.2 Liter, WHICH ONE WOULD YOU TOW WITH? That seems to put the perspective of effective torque. While hundreds of pounds of torque isn't NEEDED in an A body, it gratifies results faster, and if you don't have your foot in it to the...

Totally agree. a 5.2 magnum for economy build (which is the purpose in my eyes for building a 318, even if they want 300 or someone else wants 400 hp) or a 5.9 magnum for CHEAP Performance build. Didn't Mopar Action Build a 450 horsepower 5.9 magnum for under $3,000? Years ago I remember...

For the love of all FABO and the rest of us Mopar Zombies that watch the UT/DV Mopar drama with Lunar's leakin' 318...FOR THE LOVE OF ALL PLEASE SEND THAT TWO BARREL TO DAVID VIZARD. I don't care about all of the hypocrisy, inefficiency, idiocrasy... I wanna see their CONglomeration run WITH...

If we have hydraulic lifter camshafts, can we use solid lifters on those camshafts?
