    Diagnostic question

    I have a stumper that someone here (RRR) will know the answer to. I have a 5.9 Magnum in my Dart, dead stock, hooked to a 4-speed. I missed a shift. The next day, when cranking, it sounded like a cylinder or two were out on compression when cranking. wha-wha-WHA-wha-wha kinda thing. Seemed...

    Magnum valve springs

    OK, I dropped a bone stock magnum in my four speed Dart. One fishtail later and the motor's limping. I didn't think about the rev limit on stock 5.9's and valves paid the price. I have a set of OLD OEM magnum heads to go back on to get this car running. What valvesprings can I stuff in there...

    Are mopar performance aluminum #Part #: 312-P5153847 heads just re labelled Edelbrock heads, or are they different? What are generally considered the best STREET USE bolt on aluminum heads for a magnum engine on the market right now? The cam will never go over a mid range torque cam...

    Damper question

    I'm trying to find out, is the key-way on a small-block vibration damper clocked to any certain point on the crank? I know that they're all clocked the same (so the timing marks work their magic), but is the key clocked to any specific feature, like #1TDC or something? Are the bolt holes for...

    Bent valves

    Well, do to a worn-out sure-grip and subsequent over-rev situation, I'm in need of some new Magnum heads. I've got a good set on the garage floor but the Enginequest heads came highly recommended. Where's the cheapest that you have seen them priced? Also, I'm thinking about an MSD-6AL to...

    Harmonic Damper question

    I'm am wondering...does the the keyway slot on the harmonic damper line up with the TDC mark on the damper? In other words, does the keyway slot on the crank line up with Cylinder #1 crank throw? I don't have any dampers available at the moment, so if you do and could post a picture, that...

    What did I break?

    The car: 72 Dart, 360 stock with mild cam, 4-speed OK, drove the car to the muffler shop with open manifolds (trashed the cheapie headers), and they couldn't bend head pipes for it on the driver's side, so I said to leave it be and picked it up. This was a 6 block trip. But, I've...
