302 heads are NOT J heads. J heads are early 340/360 heads. I would not bother with 302 or OEM Magnum heads. IF the block was a Magnum / no oil through the head gallery, I’d go straight to the Edebrock Magnum heads. Otherwise, it would be a regular aluminum LA head. An ‘86 block is a roller LA...

High heat is a real concern for sure. I can take about 4-6 hours and I’m running inside for the A/C. Or pool.

In all honesty, I’d run the roller cam ‘86 and paint it blue.

Absolutely! Didn’t the governer just sign something allowing the insurance industry an easier time back into the state. IIRC, 10 more insurance companies are back in Florida. Where in Florida R U?

Where in Florida are you?

The wife did a ton of looking around. One of the things she was concerned about was crime and hurricanes. Here is a little food for thought….. In Florida, where the rockets are launched, has a historically very low hurricane and storm event occurrence. That is northern Brevard county. Volusia...

Well, if you came here only to sell some stuff, proceeded to the want ad section! Don’t sit here in court everybody! Just put up an ad.

No worries It’s always great to go big and make power easier. He’s is going bigger. But this is always the case on the forum. If you don’t go big, it turns into a bashing through many posts re stating it. A few even dog pile on it. When does it end? If you put a 440 in a car, then next quip is...

I wouldn’t have paid for it since it’s not in cursive… Just saying….. :lol:

Every so often I switch up insurance carriers. As their prices creep up again, annoyed and start looking elsewhere. So I went from one insurance company to another just recently, and they offered me a plug-in to the ODB two port to monitor my driving habits so they can lower my insurance...

Oh, please, let’s not get this to political and shut down!

Where I lived and work in New York City, the Chinese that have immigrated to New York or snuck in as the case may be, speak Cantonese. That’s why I said what I said. LOL CANTONESE AND MANDARIN OR THE ONLY DIALECTS OF THE CHINESE PEOPLE I KNOW OF. I’M SURE THERE’S MORE BUT, I DON’T KNOW...

I don’t know about that. Read above, IMO, Phreakish nailed it.

LMAO!!! Sorry, I don’t believe that one bit. They butter your *** and make it right as so it to loose your biz and collect more money from you later. They video was 100% correct that big corp doesn’t give a crap about you, just your money. If you think summit care, you have drunk up to much of...

They all know as much as we know that there just a big cop cat company ripping off America while sending it up our ***. We know that they totally ripped off Edelbrock & many others. This is not new news, just brought to light. But yet everybody will hurry up and buy the cheap heads on Black...

Summit is a corporate biz who will sell anything and up to the point of this viral video they stopped because of the possible legal issue that may yet still arise from selling a counterfeit copy. As he said, Corporations don’t care about you, they care only for money. That’s a 100% fact...

And a big small block!

LOL… what the magazines write - 28 vs 10 & what the engine see’s. Enough numbers to keep your head spinning for a little bit.

Then there is the case where you get to a point where you hurt the low end lift pretty good and pick up on the high lifts pretty good. This, to me turns the head into a drag head where the valves are just simply shot open as fast as possible and then just hang out there for a spell before...

Uh-huuuu, I did mention that. The big block weight savings is pretty good IMO.

Yes to a bigger valve. It’s just the OEM head ports do not flow as well as one would think. The aftermarket solved that. Porting your own iron heads can be a great cost savings and produce excellent flow. The 906/452, etc… very good heads to port. 300 & plus cfm available if it’s done right. Of...

The big blocks extra weight disappears pretty darn quickly when you add the aluminum part you find and would do on a small block. If memory serves…. The big block becomes lighter. Check out “MoPar Joe” & “318willrun” on YouTube for his video on this. I have run both series engines n the same...

Oh yes because it increases torque by 70-80 fr lbs easy! I guess if it’s after the apocalypse in the world looks like Fury Road or Thunderdome and you sitting next to me Gibson scraping for scraps, I guess the 318 heads on a 340 will be OK then. But not before then!

For me it’s the first half when answering a question. Example; “I was told the part also fits big blocks.” I don’t know but was told by someone I know and trust usually follows OR it is hearsay which will be know. Normally it’ll be stated as “I heard this will fit, but I don’t know myself.”...

Thanks, that was a big help right there.

Transmission fluid is also very good. A little in each cylinder.

The Elephant ears are really good and stiff keeping the engine where it needs to be. Look into Manciniracing.com and see if they have the swap mounts. Another header is made by TTI. They also can supply an entire exhaust system for there own headers for your car n 2-1/2 or 3 inch tube size...

For A body cars, the post cars are stronger body wise. The other issue to think about is wheel base. A shorter wheel base is less desirable by some. The longer wheel base cars will be better for drag racing. This is obviously seen in the extreme at national events with dragsters. The longer...
