In the past I have always had trouble timing the engine with a light and end up doing it by a vacume gauge and ear! If I use a light and try for a factory setting about 8/10* before the engine will die. I have a true TDC. When I use a vacume gauge and adjust the dist to get max vac she idles...

A while back I asked a question about my heads without an answer and was wondering if someone could in lighten me about them. My motor is a 318. I was offered and bought a set of heads a while back and at that time didn't know much about heads...but the seller said it was a good deal for...

Have a performer intake as showen with a "square" bore Holley Carb. At this time I'm also using a square bore "open" spacer. Should I be using the "four" hole spacer? and does it matter? As it stands now, I don't seem to be having any fuel mixture problems but would perfer it to be correct...

I have two different manuals with different instructions? When #1 Cyl is TDC on compression stroke, one book states that the drive gear slot for the distributor should be "parallel" to the camshaft. (I take that means fore & aft)The other states the slot should be facing or (pointing) to #1 cyl...

During my overhaul I took my head numbers down 4027596. Then went to our Mopar Head site. It read: 81-83 318 HP (Cast-in 360) 1.88" 1.60" / 66cc 72.5cc I figured they were straight 360 heads. A'm I right to say that these heads were built for a 318 direct fit so that there would be...

A few year back I had a my 318 rebuild and did not know much about rebuilds...The only thing updated in the complete rebuild was the 360 heads milled and a 340 cam installed. (never asked for balance/blueprint etc.) Is there a way just by looking at the vibration damper to know if the engine...

Can Vibration dampers be swapped between small blocks...or is there technical issues? Have one on the 1972, 318 that looks a little shabby, however the one on the 69 273 look good. Thanks

Have a SB oil relocation kit that is new in box that's been on the shelf. Does anyone used one of these? Not to sure if I should put it in during the rebuild or not... or if it's just a pain in the *** due to the headers, leaks etc. Any comments??? Right now I just use the oil filter...

Things are slowly happening. I'm pulling the dusters engine to put in the Signet. Question: How far should I go in this? The motor was a complete rebuild with only about 6 months total use on it, however it's been sitting for 2 1/2 years with the odd turning over by hand and maybe twice with...

Guys for a few years now I've been runing with a single Plenum (older streetmaster performer) 8-[ Would the newer Ederbrock performer "Dual plenum" give me more lower end torque for my 273? if so...any window idea's on the plus side from your past incounters. Thanks

Guys, I seem to be having a problem getting the most out of the signet when I mat it around 60 MPH. For starters, I'm pretty sure my kickdown is adjusted correctly. When I mat it I get a burst, but for a very short time (maybe 3-4 sec) then it drops off like the secondries have closed. (my best...
