    Any one try this ( Mopar 318 Engine - Cheap As Dirt )

    When the time comes that my teen is done. If I find a 360 for reasonable I'll build a 360, otherwise I'll build the teen. 40 cubes one way or the other isn't a huge deal for run of the mill street use.

    Any one try this ( Mopar 318 Engine - Cheap As Dirt )

    Seems like to that this build has a lot of upper RPM HP. I wonder what its like in the lower RPM range.

    Good to know, I'll research it before off roading.

    vs a cast iron intake and a stock 4bb? You tell me. The motor is currently stock.

    I wonder what carbs those are.

    5.7 Hemi or Built 340?

    Do not wuss out. Bow to peer pressure, the crowds have spoken. Seriously, what is the point if you can't smoke all 4? I vote 340 :-)

    Grey sludge in brand new radiator - what does it mean.

    Ahh I can do that. I'll check tonight. The voltometer is the only testing tool I have.

    Grey sludge in brand new radiator - what does it mean.

    California vehicle codes don't seem to mind most modifications. About the only thing that stands out is the tires are wider than the body. But as long as I make or get fender flares I'll be in compliance. With that being said I've already put my dart bumpers on, and eventually I'll put lower...

    Grey sludge in brand new radiator - what does it mean.

    Take off the thermostat and stick the garden hose there with the engine not running? My heater core is blocked off.

    Grey sludge in brand new radiator - what does it mean.

    I unhooked the lower radiator hose, and let the water drain out of the radiator and block. Was I suppose to run the garden hose up the lower hose to clear out the block? Does that work?

    Grey sludge in brand new radiator - what does it mean.

    I flushed the radiator twice, this weekend I'll let her idle for a long while and do it again. I think before that I better hook up my electric fan.

    Grey sludge in brand new radiator - what does it mean.

    Honestly I have no idea. The previous owner put on a 4bbl stock intake and carb from another motor, but it looks as old as everything else on the motor. The only truly new stuff on the motor is the radiator I had a friend mechanic put in, but I'm pretty sure that the engine wasn't flushed. Even...

    Grey sludge in brand new radiator - what does it mean.

    The baby was up from 3am to 7am... that changed my morning plans to "get some any sleep even 1hr!" I will get home a bit late tonight (the dart is facing the wrong way in the garage to work on it, may its time to turn her around). I will have to do this tomorrow morning. I don't need a drain...

    So I could still have a head gasket/cracked block/cracked head? Sad face

    Grey sludge in brand new radiator - what does it mean.

    Haha... the spark plugs are nestled against the inner fenders and the headers... trust me even though its lifted the plugs are still a pain in the butt! Plus its in the garage... just trust me on this... not tonight :-)

    Grey sludge in brand new radiator - what does it mean.

    Plugs are a little hard to get to. I checked the oil, its very dark, looks like it should have been changed a long while ago, but its translucent with absolutely NO milkyness... I'll try to pull the plugs tomorrow morning before work, if they are dry I should be okay?!? I don't have any...

    I was thinking to flush it once, now maybe more.

    Grey sludge in brand new radiator - what does it mean.

    Its a 4spd, there is no transmission cooler and the heater core is blocked off, also this is a brand new radiator. The original one was loaded with sediment and had numberous pin holes everywhere. I have driven the vehicle once around the block since I owned it, so I have no information on the...

    Grey sludge in brand new radiator - what does it mean.

    If that's the case the head gasket was probably blown when I bought the truck. <--- screwed!

    Grey sludge in brand new radiator - what does it mean.

    I'm thinking this is probably a very bad sign. I bought my Dart 6 months ago, but because of a newborn, I sort of put it aside and haven't toyed with it since I got all the mechanicals hooked up. I took her out of the garage yesterday and got her idleing and let it go for 20minutes. My brand...

    Is this a steal? Weiand Tunnel Ram w/1" Spacer Dual 600 Edelbrock Electric Choke $550

    yeah I wasnt too worried about it. My toy needs low rpm torque. And I already got me a 6 pac for my 65 mustang convert.

    Is this a steal? Weiand Tunnel Ram w/1" Spacer Dual 600 Edelbrock Electric Choke $550

    For a small block 318-360. Probably worthless for my application, I got a stock 360.
