...don't have to keep going over the same old questions. And since almost everybody has, or has had, a 318, usually an 8/1 variant, with a stock 240* cam, lets start there. First of all, forget about SCR (Static Compression Ratio). This number has little meaning other than being a tool to...

Ok this sucks big time I just spent over an hour trying to find my stinking in-box. Where is it hiding? I'm so done and going to bed

I guess conversations are now called Bookmarks? I have 8 that I can count. Yet when I try to start a conversation with someone else, or they me, a message comes up that my inbox is full. What must I do to remedy this situation?

To whom ever hooked me up, hugs and kisses. May AlmightyGod; bless you, keep you, heal you, and show you the way out of Babylon.

...time. A better way, in my opinion, is to use the numbers of compression degrees plus power extraction. Say your cam numbers generate an Ica of 64*. That means your compression degrees will be 180 less 64=116*.. Say this same cam generates a power extraction number of 108* .. Together that...

...on pump gas, is ~8.0. So; what Ica on the cam, can we run at say 800ft elevation? Well it turns out that, even the Ica of the stock cam (Ica of 50*), can only get you 137psi@ E-Dcr of 6.97. This will get you a pretty low VP of 112. And performance cams don't start until the Ica's get into...

Here you go Rumble, knock yourself out

...know what the bottom end of your engine feels like. Lemmee show you what happens to it with a bigger cam; '73 318 at 8/1, VP of 110, Ica of 50* at 54*Ica, VP drops to 104 at 58*Ica, VP drops to 97, 273 sized at 62*Ica, VP drops to 91 at 66*Ica, VP drops to 84, slanty sized Each of these...

of the Mopar ECU, and system When your factory Electronic Ignition Mope fails to fire, here is an on-the-road guide to finding the problem. The only tool you need is a 5 ft length of 14ga insulated wire. If it has alligator clips on each end, so much the better. First; >Do yourself a favor and...

Off brand, but that is what I read on my 2014 Chevy-Orlando. I purchased this unit for my wife last fall, with about 70,000miles on it; and right from the start I thought it cranked a lil hard for an Ecotec DOHC. Well yesterday I finally got to the compression test.; 240 in all 4holes.This is...

I've been working on the outside of house this past summer, and the yard, etc. To the point that the my small shop(450ish sqft) kinda got neglected. So this week, I've been cleaning it out in prep for winter projects. Well today I found the floor! And hiding under the debris I found a couple...

when it's degrees Celsius. That computes to 100.4F, and our local weather office is reporting that right now.

Cost of gas just hit $4.85 per gallon US equivalent. My tank holds 23 gallons US. The countdown to starvation has begun.Or, more likely, homelessness.

Ok so who's up on this stuff? I need some help. I have been researching this a bit, and it seems like the MON test is a more stringent test on the same RON fuel. Then the two NUMBERS are averaged to get the R+M/2, But it's still the exact same fuel, just with a new lower ant-knock index. Can...

This is our story; Mopar Mike, Canucky, 68383GTS, and me AJ. Sit down, this could take a while to tell A short while ago MoparMike_87 posted a pair of Barracudas for sale. My curiosity was piqued so I responded. After I saw the fastback car was missing it's rear quarters, my excitement abated...

What's It Worth An acquaintance of mine is asking; I have a nice one, still on the parts car. What might be a reasonable selling price, if you had one? What might be a reasonable purchase price, if you needed one?

It seems I might be losing it Does anyone know how carbs are cfm rated and how 2 bbls are rated differently than 4 bbls and what the conversion factor might be. I am specifically interested in converting a 230 cfm 2bbl to 4 bbl equivalency and specifically interested in re-rating a 650cfm 4 bbl...

...may have; too much idle-timing,too fast a mechanical curve,or too fast a V-can rate.Cans are adjustable 7)Typical street-cammed SBMs may run 12to18*initial,and 32to36*power, and up to60* cruise. 8)You may have to re-index(phase)your rotor to ensure the spark goes to the intended cylinder...

AJs Quick guide to selecting an initial timing number; Basic is 12* add; +1* per 5*of cam timing larger than 220@050, and, -1* per 5* under 220@050 So, basic plus; a 220 cam needs (220 -220)/5 = plus 0*, So 12*, and a 250*cam needs (250-220)/5 = plus 6*, So 18*, and a 200* wants (200-220)/5 =...

Story time! Every once in a while,I see a guy struggling with selecting a cam for his 360 streeter. So I thought I would share my experience. Take from it what you will. Part 1, the combo I have a 68 Barracuda,outfitted to be an S clone. The engine is just a basic zero deck,4.04 short block with...

OK my turn to ask questions. I have this 80Volare rust bucket with the 225-904. And I have this nearly-a-rust-bucket 1984 p-up which had a teener-904. I have decided to make the old D a dump-runner. Just something to fire worthless stuff into all week, and then run it to the dump on Saturday...

So this customer calls me up, and says she needs help. She had another fellow recondition the engine,in her 67 Belvidere, and on it's maiden voyage, it bent 6 rods. No problem said I, I have teener rods.And oh, BTW the intake and carb are missing. No problem said I, I have teener stuff. So this...

--Yeah so, as you guys know by now, I got a lot of opinions. After nearly 50 years of wrenching maybe a guy gets into a rut, IDK. And I'm forever butting into other's posts and wreaking havoc. So I decided Maybe I should start a thread of my own. I think this might be my second thread. Feel...
