Straight swap is easier than a build if you are in a hurry. Also if you want to build the original engine do it while you are driving the car with the swapped engine in it so you aren't in a hurry if its your first build...that way you enjoy the car while figuring out what you want to do with...

Absolutely... :thumbsup:

as long as all this doesn't drive up the prices of X and J heads I'm good...:0

I once helped a friend install a 383 with 727 in a 69 dart. Fender well headers and engine plate. It was an experience. Had to set the rear up also get pinion angle and weld the perches.

Yeah I'm good my mistake is and has always been getting involved in discussions here. Ill just stick with the classifieds LOL!

Well rename it the 318 slant 6 forum then:)

I haven't seen a decent 340-360 thread on here that wasn't hijacked by 318 guys in a long time. But the thing is the 340-360 side of the argument is truly valid.

My cousin had a 65 with the poly 318 and I had a 69 with the LA 318. I like the 69 but I remember the 65 was pretty nice at the time...

A 318 will swap in yes and I've ran one in my Dart long ago, but I've since unloaded all my teens. I used to get them cheap or free so hanging on to them was sort of foolish. Like collecting scrap. I deleted my post I figured I didnt want to upset the folks here and get banned its a mob...

I like the wife's Turkey gravy at thanksgiving...all I know is she uses the drippings from the bird etc.

I don't have a Barracuda but I used Re pops on my Dart and had no issues. Id call re pops again see what they say. Unless its specific to Barracuda they should have worked IMO.

A hammer, chisel and a little bit of touch up paint... :poke: :lol:

That's actually pretty neat illustrates it well

Well the place has basically gone 318 /slant 6 who wants to yack about those engines ...? :poke: :poke::lol:

Moving like a swivel is normal but moving in and out in a hammering like motion is worn out, as in the socket is egged and there is play between ball and socket.

Welp people in Merika want 35 dollars an hour plus the boss needs their cut plus US taxes plus shipping of the raw materials maintenance of equipment and the electric bill etc. etc. etc. a basic business course should be given in High school I believe...people I know used to always want me to...

I had my 70 dart in a garage with the front clip off , a guy asked "what year Nova is that...?" I never thought the Mopar A body resembled a nova at all...even the early 60s Novas dont look like them.

Yup alot of Junk... especially on Youtube... :lol:

The rear main on an LA is 2 piece, silicone dab between the halves, also silicone where the main cap meets the block again a dab...I also cut the rear main seal tabs off and rotate the seam so that it doesnt align with the seam of the main cap and the block if that makes sense. If everyone...

Yup I would want to know if the cfm in the runner improved etc. Its just seat of the pants without the numbers. I'm sure you know PBR you get these cfm numbers then you can determine what cam selection etc. it starts getting to be more thought work than people realize . I'm no expert but I've...

I like dyno and flow bench stuff the guys who port 318 heads just to say they were ported I figure its a waste of time without proof that it actually worked.

Accurate exhaust should have stock head pipes also. They are 1 7/8 inch I believe probably not ideal for a header application you'd probably want to go 2 inch up to 2 1/4 or 2 1/2...

Make sure the pan flange is straight, don't over torque . Don't use cork if you don't have to. Silicone where the end seals meet the flat gasket.

lack of ethics and integrity also...not knowing right from wrong etc. Its everywhere today, no accountability etc. Not to get toof ar into it but China has been ripping off bfrand name guitar manufacturers for years let use Gibson Les paul for example. Then some guy in the USA buys one for $400...

Ah, I see...

So ah... what exactly did Speedmaster do again... ?

Aren't the 73 340 pistons down in the hole also...?

I done no...:BangHead:

If UTG has a 273 Commando the block is cracked ,and he sold the valve covers, intake and adjustable valvetrain long ago to pay the electric bill at his shop... :lol:

Uh huh...everyone is broke but going racing... :lol:
