Winter's here ... throw in a block heater.

Looks like maybe this was rectified in another post ...

The only shield I know of is the dust shield like this one:

I'm curious how you can change intakes a lot w/ studs? As this is a 318 (not 5.2L) the studs wouldn't be vertical ... Edelbrock 2176 doesn't have provisions for bolting to Magnum heads. Maybe I'm missing something ...

I love using studs in place of bolts whenever I can; however, it adds one more step if you ever decide to replace the intake ... they go in at an angle & would need to be removed (not just the nuts / washers) before you could lift it off the heads.

I really wish Chrysler would have left it: - carbureted ... LA engine, - fuel injected ... Magnum engine, and never mixed them up like in that late 80's early 90's era!! Thanks for all of your responses folks!!

I've got a hydraulic flat tappet cam here somewhere & the hydraulic roller cam is loose so I'll put them side by each & compare. Appreciate the help!!

This has an LA timing cover but the mechanical fuel pump mount has been blocked off.

So w/o me looking at my cam, should a pre-Magnum factory fuel injected 318 cam have the snout?

Join the club ... it's Friday.

I've got a very low mileage 318 '89 roller cam / lifters & there's a fellow looking for a stock cam for his '94 5.2L Magnum. I told him he could have these but then got wondering if the cam is compatible w/ the newer engine. So it's out of a fuel injected LA 318 & hopefully going into a fuel...

Are you referring to having holes drilled for the roller lifter retainer?

I have a 318 camshaft & roller lifters out of a 1989 B250. I know these engines are kind of in a grey era ... between a carbureted LA engine & a fuel injected Magnum 5.2L. My question is: will this cam & lifter setup bolt right into a Magnum engine & if so, are there any modifications that...

which would result in 0.083" lash (darn fat fingers)

I agree; however, taking into account the rocker ratio (1.6 for me) that gives 0.075" ... I may have been a bit off on the number of turns ... maybe it was 1 1/4 which wouldresult in ).083" lash at the valve. The cam card states for "Standard lifter pre-load" so I guess that's a bit subjective.

That doesn't help though if you're running factory non-adjustable rockers ...

If I remember correctly, mine were 1 1/8 turns counter-clockwise from 0 lash.

My cam manufacturer recommends .080" - 0.095" for hydraulic flat tappet pre-load.

These numbers don't show up in the charts I know of to ID Mopar heads ... maybe there's others though. Mopar Casting Numbers - Mopar1.us - Mopar Part Numbers
