I am helping a friend come up with a 408 stroker motor plan that will make over 500 hp, and if the desire strikes down the road, capable of handling some mild boost, say a max of seven psi or less. My personal thoughts are it would be a good idea ro go forged crank, H beam rods, forged pistons...

I am about to spend some $$, and am in need of a discount code to help stretch my budget. Thanks!

I finally got my new motor combo to the track and despite a big glich ran 8.60 at 156 mph. My new motor- 549 with 572-13 heads, 15/1 compression, dynoed 982 hp. car weighs 2905 with driver. Torqueflite, 6200 stall, 4.56 gears, 10.5x33 hoosier slicks. My biggest problem was i didn't realize i...

I am not sure what all went down exactly. I backed the car up in the driveway so i would have a bit of room, never trusting things will go perfect . I was right! I was trying to test the airshifter , which i put on an MSD shift light circuit. i had the rpm set at 3200 so i could get it to shift...

along with 982 hp, a new name, with attitude! race weight, 2900. expected ET, 8.5x at 158?

I have an RPM data logger which worked with a previous lap top. I had to buy a new laptop, an HP envy x360. I tried using two different r232 to usba converters, tried down loading the drivers, still keep getting COULD NOT OPEN SERIAL PORT ERROR CODE Ox2. I don't have a lot more hair to tear...

I have a 7531 digital 7, and the hand held monitor for changing rpm, etc in the program of the 7531. When trying to go to shift light, rhen gear select rpm, it won't go from SHIFT to the next level to set shift light rpm or number of gears. I have to have a way to only allow two shifts, as my...

If you go to" 8.80s, sneaking up on it" post, the description of my 65 Dart with 550 cubes , 440-1 heads, 926 dyno"d hp ran 8.80 runs with some issues will fill in some details. On to my question. I made a few changes and am curious what guys think hp will change. List of changes- DLC COATED...

After dynoing the 550 cube 440-1 motor, i got a couple runs in a BIR. Car weighs 3012 with driver. Carried the fronts to, or past the 60 ft clocks? Da was 3094 and an 8 to 10 mph head wind. So i am looking forward to better conditions! Front shocks are full stiff on extension, launch 4250 rpm so...

I had the 3.8 mph gain by running the orange scoop and its' base only. Terminater throttle body was totally exposed to engine compartment. The aircleaner assembly only lost 4 hp on the dyno. Would like opinions on why. I plan on testing various combos without the hood.

Finally got the 550 cube 440-1 headed, alky injected motor down the track. Last sat and sunday Brainerd intl in minnesota had a special event for MSRA(MINNESOTA STREET ROD ASSOCIATION) members. The first pass was off idle, went 1.276 60 ft, 8.888 in 1/4 at 150.5 mph. 2530 DA. The second run it...

I finally got my race motor dyno'd. 4.5043 bore. 4.315 stroke. 2.2 rod bearings 6.86 molner h beams, CP pistons coated by line 2line to make up the overbore of .0043 from 4.5000. Megablock. Charlies SS style pan. Cam is a Jones Cams inverted flank roller with 284/296/114 @ .050 duration. .510...

Two days (thurs/fri) trying to reach Tritech or Patterson Ellite to get instructions on this seal and nobody is answering phones! This type of seal has to be installed on the crank first, then the crank goes in the block. If it is done wrong there is no way to fix it short of pulling the motor...

Just thinking about cheap alternatives to straight E85 that might work in an unmodified carb. Let's say a guy has a 11.5 to 1 compression iron headed motor and wants to get by on a budget. If a test kit was used to see the true % of ethanol a little math could be used to determine a mix that...

To kill a little time and have some fun i propose we come up with a recipe for a truly cheap bracket motor. The only rules for the build are it must be a mopar v8 , make 400 hp minimum and all things like the core engine , parts and machining labor plus tax be tallied! My idea; Magnum 5.9...

Since i need a rering and new bearings, i had my 4.15 crank offset ground to 4.315. Bore is 4.5043, had line2line coat the pistons to make up the .0043 needed to clean up the bores. Basic combo was 15.1 to 1 compression, fully ported 440-1 heads, 3x intake, Terminter injection running...

408, pumpgas, EQ heads, 10.1 to 1 compression, liked 30 degrees max on the dyno. Cam is a Comp Thumpr 235/249/107 in at 105, airgap intake. It is at 14 initial now to get it back to 30 total in by 4,000. My converter flashes above 4,000. I am thinking of going to 20 initial plus 10 for 30 total...

Title says it, how much stroke can you stuff into a magnum 5.9 block using the small rods? Kinda curious about A BIG street motor

65 2dr post Dart, 408 with 904,4200 stall, 504 hp at 5700 518 tq at 4600,3.55 gears, ET street tires. Has a coilover rack and pinion built by me, wilwood discs up front, full 2.5 exhaust, ProCar buckets, no heater, all body parts original. No cold air package.

SRT8 Hemi exhaust manifolds, stainless steel. These manifolds will work in an early A body if the torsion bars are replaced with coilover shocks. $350 plus the ride from MN 55304

What heads are out there that will match or exceed my EQs that are bowl ported with 2.02 intake valves? It would only be worth it to me to upgrade to aluminum if i can transfer my current valvetrain parts from the iron EQs. Whats ou there? Anything that is better with the same work done?

Title says most of it. Five years ago I started a coil over + rack and pinion front end project. Finally got the car on the road! 408, 504 hp, 904 trans. 3.55 gears.

I am trying to figure out a decent fan and relay combo for my 408 stroker. I have a large core 73 a body radiator with a touch less than 3 inch clearance to the pump pulley. There is not enough room to run the shortest clutch fan sold. I have one and total height with fan blades is 3 inch. What...

I have a 408 with a 904 trans, and need some help on picking out a very good cooler as well as help in how to run the lines around the headers. I want a stacked plate design, and i am looking at a Derale 16 row, or 25 row cooler. They come with an6 fittings, the 25 row is rated 45,000! Btu. I...

This is a fun post to see what guys THINK. can be done with a lowly set of EQ heads, a magnum 5.9 base ( engine block) and a stroker kit. Budget is what i want strongly considered. The basic idea is what would Joe budget racer build, no dry sumps, no vacuum pumps. My ideas- 408 cubes, 13/1...

I read in another post guys didn't like certain oils, one of which i run. So what oil works best with alky, making 880 hp, 528 cubes, 15/1 compression?

Brian, box is full

I am looking for a hood scoop for my 65, paint on this car is almost perfect so i am looking for somthing i can color match. I have a mold for a 65 hood, so i have options to go glass rather than mess up my good hood.

Since i don't have either trans, that would give me options to put an OD trans together.

I have a 1972 904 serial pk35xxxxxxxxxx. I am a bit confused about what thrust plates and washers go where. I assume there are no thrust plates or washers behind the rear annulus gear? Inside the rear annulus one diagram shows a thrust plate, but I don't remember there being one there, and...
