    I guess this is the theme for 2024

    No racing at our LVMS track at all in May. They have the Electric Daisy Festival where they draw 100,000 Hippies = Screaming and Naked! The tell me they make more money on that than all the drag racing events the entire year! The trash cleanup and removal of all the comatose bodies takes...

    Starter issues

    Do you have a 130 /143 tooth flywheel? There is a 172 tooth ( I think that is accurate ) for a non gear reduction starter that the pitch of the gear may cause the starter to stick in engaged position.

    340 Oil Priming Question First Start

    No Oil pressure reading is fine. Oil only goes to rockers in a few certain positions of the engine rotation. Rotate it a bit at a time as Myron said in post #2. He knows these engines as well as anyone I know!

    What is the horse power benefits

    I would have a concern with cutting the mains down over .300 on a 360 cast crank. I would also be concerned with the opening up of the 318 block to 2.810. It would be quite a machining job for me and it would make the skinny 318 Main caps even skinnier yet. I have seen a 360 stock eliminator...

    What is the horse power benefits

    The 360 has a much bigger Main bearing size! As I recall it is 2.81 The 318/340/273 has a much smaller Main Bearing size. As I recall 2.50 You can buy longer stroke cranks with the 2.50 Main size. A 4 inch would get you 391 CI as I recall. The 408 converted 360 is a good combo! The main caps...

    Picture of Class finals from Vegas Race

    I am having way more fun than a 76 year old Guy usually does! For years I raced out of Bob Mazzolini's Shop and he gave me a shirt that said "How much Horsepower can I have and still go to Heaven?".

    Picture of Class finals from Vegas Race

    I think a couple thou or maybe three. But they watch you pretty close and you can not have it up very much at all without a problem. However, I won a heads Up class race in Denver about 10 years ago at the Nationals by .0001. That is a Single Ten thousand of a second! My car JUST made weigh...

    [WANTED] 440 pistons

    [SOLD] Wiseco 440 Pistons for 4.25 Stroke/.055 Over

    Let me measure them again this week. I did it with my calibers and two 23 month old grandkids hanging on me. I could have easily screwed up. I know I had the engine together some years ago and they were not down in the hole like that.

    [WANTED] 440 pistons

    I will try to remeasure mine. Maybe I made a mistake = I had two 23 month old Grandkids with me. I am confused: A 1/2 inch stroker with a 1.5 Comp. deck would be about Zero deck with a 7.1 Rod according to what I calculated in a 440 block. Can someone check my math and help me out?
