Nice ride and welcome sir. Do yourself a favor and familiarize yourself with the ignore feature. It makes this board much better. :)

There is truth to that example. Then there is the other side of the coin where it cost 750 bucks for a set of brackets to convert a big block to a serpentine belt. There is a mopar tax and that has in part made mopar owners fashion there own stuff sometimes or just not buy period..

We all know that around these parts. Thing is a restomod mopar for sale with a 340 under the hood would bring more interest and money than the same car with a similarly built 360.

You are a good man passing along deals to your customers. I am sure that many of them become friends as well.

Yes. Some are manufactured now in Isreal if I remember right. Still will go out of my way to use them whenever possible.

Other than the carb and tune that you are already addressing, the cam overlap is where I would look for fuel consumption related to the engine.

I guess it depends on what someone defines as "performance". It is a sliding scale, not just an either or choice.

Wow PBR you made what was already a decent set of heads great. Interested in hearing the old vs new ETs when your friend runs them.

For ***** and giggles here is mine. Just for the record I only enjoy certain people getting what they have coming to them. Got no issues with the average Joe. Machiavellianism 2.71 Narcissism 3.00 Psychopathy 2.29 Sadism 3.29 low ⇒ average ⇒ high level

Since you asked here is my two cents. If you are going to swap the motor anyway, I would not swap the heads and especially not the cam. Inviting trouble with the cam. Electronic ignition might help if there is a problem with the points distributor. Not a bad idea to swap for long term...

I know you are joking with Dan, but I have bought all kinds of stuff for cars I didnt yet own.

Can't say for sure about your block, but it would be highly unusual for anyone to spend the money to put multiple sleeves in a 318 block.

Of course. Not a noob to this stuff. :)

Thanks guys. I tried moving it earlier today in neutral with my tractor. Didn't want to move. Been sitting for a while so must have a brake not turning loose. Didn't want to push it too hard without making sure that is what was happening.

I need to move my 2002 Ram van and it currently doesn't have the wiring harness in it. Hoping I won't have to pull the driveshaft.
