So i am about to invest a couple hundred bucks and mill a slant six head .100 However I remember in auto school being told that the 73 and up heads have hardened valve seats to run better on the then new unleaded fuel. I can say I have never run a lead additive on the 73 and older heads and...

So I have a 68 225 slant apart for re- ring. Engine had minimal ridge and seems to be in very good shape. I had a thought that I can take the head in to shave it and raise the compression. Is .090 too much for an engine that I'm not planning to change the cam or much other than putting a 2...

So I'm looking for ideas on how to make an EGR plug. I'm thinking a small freeze plug on the bottom and maybe a gasket of some kind

so this is the original k frame out of a 72 demon and it looks like it was hit on something, hard. I currently need a slant k frame and this guy is sitting on the pile, quickly available but i am wondering if the dent should be a deal breaker or not. There is no noticeable frame damage on...

So I have a slant six and 63 valiant and I can't get the passenger side mount to seat, so when i looked from under the car, the pan hitting the k frame. Were there different k frames for 170 vs. 225?? The car originally had a 170 which was long gone before I bought the car and this is a 225...

So, according to this video, I don't need an expensive 350 cfm for my slant, I can just slap on a mega common eddy 600 and I will still get what the engine needs. Interesting

Ok, so we all know that in v8s you remove the distributor and the distributor drive gear and you can use an oil pump priming tool and turn the oil pump with a drill and oil the engine. This is particularly handy for restored cars in long term storage situations. How does one prime the pump on...

I have 72 demon with an offy 4 barrel manifold and 4 barrel carb. I personally feel the 4 barrel is a waste with the stock exhaust but it was set up like that before I got the car. It runs but not very good but it really needs a tune up. So I am thinking to replace the 4 barrel setup with a...

So I found a pic of something that caught my attention. It appears to be a see through carburetor bowl on a one barrel. Where was such a thing available through??

How do you guys get stuck pistons out of rusted engines? I just beat the the living **** out of 3 slant six pistons and one came out in pieces after I got the air hammer on it. (Pics to follow) A Jack handle and sledge hammer helped get about a 1/2 inch gain even after soaking it with oil...

It seems a double roller timing again is not available for a slant six. But the question is: is a double roller even necessary?? It seems a lot of high performance engines of other brands use a single roller with no issues. Is a double roller just one of those upgrades that everyone thinks...

In doing a lot of research on slant sixes, it seems to me that the most enthusiasm happened in the mid 80s. It was then, big names like Doug Dutra and Clifford were heavy in the business of making cool stuff for the hungry slant crowd. The 90s came and went and the 2000s is when I personally...

I have seen a number of slant six air cleaners pointed like this, especially when they have A/C Is this a correct way some of them came or is that way off ??

Someone told me that I will need to order a gasket from Clifford to run a slant six Clifford intake/ header because its a much thicker gasket??? However I heard from another source that a standard fel-pro intake/ exhaust gasket will work just fine ??? which one is true ?? Can I use an over...

Some of this content parallels the content going into my valiant thread which is the car this slant six is for but this is a slant six rebuild thread. It's purpose is to get input from other members who have built slant sixes before. This is by far not the first time I have rebuilt an engine...

So I am taking my slant six down because it did run when I got it but who knows how old or what the story is. So I figured since it is getting a new permanent home in my 63 valiant wagon I would take it down and do a basic "overhaul" and see if what is in the engine has a story. I found a tag...

has anyone ever seen a fan with a larger hole in the center.....any idea what this came off? I was going to switch the 4 blade fan on my slant to a fan with more blades from an A/C car. To my surprise the 4 blade fan has a bigger center hole than the bigger fan and this is the first I have...
