Hello All, I am putting my 440 together for my project Dart. It is a very low-buck engine that is basically a cam/springs/intake engine with some mild head clean-up. The cam is a Hughes Grind with 223/230 at .050 or so. Should I replace the valve spring keepers when I have the heads...

Hello, I am a shop teacher and I used to post here alot, still lurk multiple times a day...and post when needed. Truthfully I am doing the BBD thing so I have been there. Anyways, we are finally working on the BB Dart Sport. It is a budget build, although I did increase the budget...

I have asked about 3.2 million questions since I joined. I am getting real close.....think next week to starting on the car. I have a good running 318 -make that a great running 318 in there. I also have a good-we are looking into it-318 on the stand. I am shooting for a snappy DD...

I am preparing to get to work on some heads for my Duster. I would like to port and polish them. Is there a better source than Summits for the grinding burrs etc. What would you buy and where would you get it? Thanks, ROB

I have had an offer of a 340 Torker intake. I would imagine that this is a high rpm racing type of intake from yesteryear but I really don't know. It would likely be going on a 360 street-strip type of engine. Any comments, tech speces etc? Thanks again, ROB

It seems to me that the Airgap is the way to go for most cars that perform where I would like to be. Here is my question: What is the real world difference in performance between the two on a street car? I was speaking to a friend in a much milder climate and he said that his really...

What is the maximum rpm a stock small block can take? Assuming I have a dead stock 318/360 what is the maximum rpm that is repeatable for say3-5K miles? In other words it does not need to last me for the rest of my life, but some street bashing and a bit of mild racing. Thank you, ROB
