Nice score... I just bagged a set of these myself Tuesday, along with a 71 340 T-quad manifold. All for $76.25! It really pays to know the casting numbers and never overlook a V8 anything in the yards... These were found in an ex-police 87 Diplomat.. insurance auction paper on the...

Terry, Mopar Action has been doing a series on this same swap over the last year. Scroll through the Tech Archives until you come upon Scat Dak II http://www.moparaction.com/Tech/archive.html It will tell you what back issues to get. be sure to read up on the exhaust manifolds they used...

Just a question..how sick did the car have to get before the leaf springs weren't adequate anymore? I intend to do something similar on my 69 Valiant some day when the economy gets better, on a less grand scale....I'd like to know where the "breaking point" was......you have a video of the...

Mr Prine, I've got a question for you...in a street/strip situation, with the emphasis more to the strip side, would it make more sense to use 2 smaller turbos as opposed to 1 larger unit/ Any advantages or dis-advantages I should consider? Other than the plumbers nightmare, that is. The victim...

Could also have been a car built from a magazine article, too...although, in the case of the fast 318 car, it seemed somewhat low buck, with 11.5 slicks crammed onto 15X8 cop wheels...and the slow 340 car, looked like it was properly set up in all respects. you just never know? I agree, I'd...

The wierd thing about the low comp 318 race car, was that the "thrown together" motor wasn't that much slower than the guys 360 race motor had been...I didn't know the guy, just yakked with him at a race, but it was interesting how fast that 318 was. I don't know how scienced out his previous...

The real revenge came when the buddy went out and bought headers too, and actually slowed down! Then I was beating him by 3-4 lenghths! I think it leaned him out and lost power. He then went on a money spending campaign, that I won't describe here. he he he alan627b

I bought a cheap set of used headers out of a guy's trunk back in my youth. Took the front suspension apart as I was told I'd need to do. Imagine my surprise when after it was all together, the steering didn't go through it. They tucked up high enough that you would have to drag the frame on the...

318 exhaust log exhaust manifolds are restrictive, the TTI's would be an excellent choice, and will work great on the 340 later...and the best thing is, they don't hang through the steering like the cheap brands do. A good 2.5 dual exhaust set up with an H or better yet, X pipe will wake it up a...

I talked to a guy at KCIR a few years ago who had blown up the race engine in his 70 Duster. He took the Eddy's and put them on a 88 truck 318 shortblock, with the accessories from the race engine, and put that back into the car so he could finish the season. It was running 12.30's that way...

You could use super stock cage regs as a guideline, but since that combination would be very expensive to run in SS, and since it sounds like you aren't going to be building a class legal car, then use the Super Street (10.90) or Super Gas (9.90) rules as a guide. You are better off to...

If you have the 73-76 spool type motor mounts have you guys ever checked with your dealer? I got a replacement pair for my 340 and it was no trouble at all. I believe Schumaker has replacement, not conversion, mounts with urethane instead of rubber for the late style mounts. Read this...
