Before &after mostly chamber in shrouded

Mostly chamber port

One head done... not major porting but not minor either... going on my 318.

Doesn’t look lean? Good to know... wait to I finish butchering these heads with Home porting

Before Home port

Stock....

Working on a pair of 302’s This will be the before porting....

Kids are great. I have three of them myself. Wouldn't trade them for anything. Not even a '69 Hemi powered GTX. Unless it was a convertible them hmmmm.

Even though this thread is ancient. I thought I'de throw in my experience as to what carb I feel is a good carb for street/strip. I have been using the Q-Jet for the past year now after having tried a T-Quad and Holley Spread Bore. I have been getting the best MPG and performance from the...

What were you saying about intelligence....?

I would agree. I will be running 10.45 compression with my magnum headed 318 and do not see any issues if I use 93 octane. It has been done many times...

Another sunny day here in South Florida... think I'll go for a swim.... Pina Colatas anyone...?

LOL! :sign5:

Nope, haven't looked for pistons yet. Good thought. Maybe I ought to relent and just get a 360 block. Know anybody with a 360 block here in South Florida?

On ebay there is a crank from Eagle that is for the 360. It is a 4" stroke. I know that you can "turn down" the mains on a stock 360 to fit the 318. Could the same be done on this Stroker from Eagle. They only want 230.00 for the crank. Would it be worth it to put into my 318 which is on...

Thanks again for the info. I was going to attempt the "moper" method, but I think I'll just let a competent machinist do it for me.

So Moper... tell me, why is it very difficult to press in the pin thru the piston. I was under the impression that all that is needed to assemble the rod/piston assembly with full floaters is just a bit of elbow grease ans some spiro locks. The engine will night even come close to the 7000...

You made my day. I was waiting for the punchline and when there wasn't any, you had me floored in laughter!!! I was j/k about the t/q wrench. I have a couple, one for ft /lbs and one for inch/ lbs. My sense of humour doesn't come thru very well in these forums. But you did make my day...

I am building a some what of an unusual stroker 318 and have a quick question with some more soon to follow since this is going to be my first engine build and leave it to me to make it a stroker. Anyways, I have a set of 340 Rods that are bushed. I also have a set of pistons that are for...

DartJack, you ought to post more often. Your sensibilities in the quest for the often the unreasonable is quite sobering. I think you'll be hearing from me soon. Between you and Moper I believe I will end up with the most though thru combination to get my car consistently down the track and win.

I get that alot.... but as Robert Frost has said once in "The Road Not Taken", I will take the one that is less travelled by... Sure the 360 is an easier route,,, but the parts I have acquired so far pretty much fallen on my lap. And of equal importance, with the help of Moper, 66DartGT ...

Don't forget that the 346 heads are not for unleaded gas. It wasn't til the 452's that came with hardened seats....

I was thinking the same thing should the pistons come aove the deck. I plan on pulling the engine soon to get it cleaned, and bored 0.030. I will check the dimensions, even takes pics if you like, and then send the block back for the final hone and decking if necessary. Do you think I can...

Excellent post 388dart. Currently the piston i have now sits 0.085 in the hole. Combustion chamber is 59cc. I live at sea level here in Miami Florida. I was planning on using a 0.040 head gasket with my zero deck. Never thought of possibly going with a thicker gasket should the piston...

The MP P4529710 Forged crank was indeed designed to clear the 365" rule and better compete with the small block bow ties. I did a "Google" and came up with some interesting blogs behind the P4529710. I also did purchase the SFI Flex Plate, but didn't realize that it requires a larger bolt to...

It is going to be a 342, not a 318 with a longer stroke for more torque down low and thru out the power band. I realize I am going to need different pistons with a different compression height. The new stroker crank is going to put the piston 0.100 further up the bore... I am interested...

Bored one night surfing E-bay for good deals when.... I saw a RV grind camshaft ( [email protected]/.420(int)[email protected]/.442(ex) ) from General Dynamics for $25.00... new. Hmmmm.... bought it and stabbed it in my '85 LA 318 4BBl. Nice improvement and sounds really nice. Even has a lope with the...
