Now you just need to get greasy.

I liked Dan’s cam suggestion. Not to darn shabby Dan. A wide LSA for a smooth idle on a more aggressive lobe while not being far off from a friendly driver with mileage. Its duration is a step above standards command lots of lift for how well OEM ports flow. It stays under .500 for an easy...

This section will do. Small block would work. MoPar performance issues would also work. Leave it here. What’s done is done and I s all good IMO. Thanks Toolmanmike!

Freakin A brother. More cylinders, more power.

This is in web sites and suggestions. Super wrong place for this topic. A MOD will be along shortly and mo e it to the proper place for questions of this caliper. (LOL! See what I did there? No, nevermind, it’s been a long day for me. Humor fail…) To answer your question, everything should...

Easy to say, hard to explain and give specific info. To me it looks a hair lean. Not something I’d worry a whole lot about. I don’t see the timing mark left behind on the electrode ground. What carb and jets, etc…. FWIW, I think it’s going pretty good for you so far.

Thanks to those that replied straighten me out on this. So glad to learn something today. This guy is schooled.

Then what are these from?

Are these the same ones as these? Mancini High Performance Exhaust Manifolds

The camshaft is only one part of the combination. I’m going to ask you a small slew of questions that we all need to know the answers to for any type of cam recommendation. Otherwise, you’ll get answers like, “Use a .750 roller cam with 1.6 rockers.” What is your; Cars weight Trans Is a...

Thanks for sharing this. Very cool.

I like the easy going talks and people remembering there old cars they had. I give a decent amount of Lee way to the brain forgetting exactly or details and even screw ups, but when the bull **** flys, in turn off. The majority of people are really good people smiling and remembering the old...

Nice! Similar story here. I was not a cop but a railroad worker in NY. Left that state for Florida and double my house size, land area, built a 12 aq. ft. garage (almost done) and enjoy everyday thank the Lord God Almighty!!! Now to get as many years of life in retirement as I did years of...

Most guys that run and drive the streets use a Hyperutecic piston. The popular one is the Keith Black pistons. I’m not sure what is available from Federal Mougal, but I use there pistons in a 360. Super similar to the KB slugs, these featured a slick coating on the sides of the piston for...

That’s by the numbers and often is not the case.

WOW! I’m not a fan of that stupid high speed driving on the interstates. If you know a stretch of no exits for a few miles and its traffic is ZERO VEHICLES, then I say at your own risk have at it. It’s when these cars/drivers are turning up the speeds and a possibility however remote it may...

All cars capable of creating smoke shows and laying long stripes. When ever the feeling strikes….. Boom Baby!

I don’t know the reason why it’s a no go thing for who ever said that but IDGAF I’m running it.

It’s a nice unit for sure.

The tensioners just are to reduce the cam timing flutter under high wear conditions.

Chain guide? No such thing or reason to have a “Chain guide.” I like the double roller with the Magnum timing chain tensioner.

The intake is duel drilled. Plugs are reusable and currently are installed in the Magnums bolt holes.

For me, it’s stuff like, “My Dad had (or “I” own a ) a - insert random car model - just like this with the 498 dual quad quadrajets and a manual 5spd OD transmission. It was that one year only dual over head cam model for that extra 80hp, you know the one right? The electric blue paint and...

No one. They all say there the best & right.

I laugh my *** when people tell me “I’m putting you on ignore.”

I like the gas station conversations. It’s when they start bullshitting me, I kind of turn off to them, just pump my gas and say have a nice day.

Your welcome and deserve it.

A route I’m preparing to take. I’ll use 3.55’s w/245/60/15’s and a small cam. 220@050. The math on the 1st and OD ratio works out well for what I’m looking for. The first gear ratio is a slight high @10.96 while the OD (.71 - truck OD trans) comes to 2.52. While not the ideal ratio set up...

But I give him credit for sticking around trying to learn something.

True! I’m on a path to create or somewhat duplicate todays methods but still use yesteryears equipment. Moderate compression, short duration/high lift cam with a really nice cylinder head and intake for the engine and a simple OD trans for longer legs.
