Only complaint I hear between 318 and 360 is torque. Need more torque for heavier car
Use more gear. A 3.90 is a sissy gear.

TM?Or TM
Ahhhhhhhhh!!!!!jeepers, I can't pull anything over on you, can I.lol
TM ;TorqueMultiplication; takes me 3 minutes to type that out, then go back and fix all the wrong keystrokes
I put it back in
I got some 4.10 gears also, but with a 3 speed it kills drivability passed 45 mph. At 70 mph I would be turning like 3800 rpms
That maths out to 29.5 tall tires at zero-slip.........jus sayingThe 4.30 gears in my Valiant didn't do that. I drove it everyday for almost 4 years. Back and forth to work, on the interstate. At 55 it turned a tick over 2700. Didn't bother me at all.

I thought speed limit in Texas was 85? Want to cruise on the highway in an old mopar with 500hp on tap? Turbocharge it. Turbo loves to operate with high gearing, <3.55’s is preferable, some going into the high 2’s. 75mph all day and will dominate most at the track.
The EQ is (IMO) a really nice iron head that works well in the street (as cast) and can be ported for some really nice and capable power. They can make for a really nice street strip head. There only draw back as far as I’m concerned is there heavy iron, which is t the end of the world and for me, not really a huge concern.
True, aluminum removes about 50kbs. of the nose of the engine for yadda yadda yadda.... we all know the drill here. However, 50lbs. is, again, not the end of the world and a worry if your in the street.
If I’m wrong then I’m wrong. I just do my best to be 100-% sure before stating what I do as a fact. If it’s something a friend did, I say so. If *I Think* it is correct, then you see the *I Think*. I try not to guess ever. It thinking things through, it will be so known.I'm always guessing
I try not to use absolutes like "will do",
preferring might do, could do, should do, Probably, possibly, maybe,
cuz then it's not as embarrassing when I'm wrong,lol.
LMAO!!!!!!And I hate green peppers on pizzas
I used to have a Desk-Top Dyno, back in 99,
Especially now that we have the AGap. Man when that thing came out, I ordered one from the local SpeedShop rightaway. Cost a fortune but, I've never been sorry.Great learning tool.
Never use a single plane intake unless it is a balls out crazy race build.
Yea got that right! Hammer head squarely on the nail head! BAMM!Especially now that we have the AGap. Man when that thing came out, I ordered one from the local SpeedShop rightaway. Cost a fortune but, I've never been sorry.
or EFI
Another option is swapping the 3 speed for an a518 (46rh), you'll get overdrive an lockup torque converter.I got some 4.10 gears also, but with a 3 speed it kills drivability passed 45 mph. At 70 mph I would be turning like 3800 rpms
But I have read you have to modify tranny tunnel to fit the A518?Another option is swapping the 3 speed for an a518 (46rh), you'll get overdrive an lockup torque converter.
Sounds like a plan. What about a pair of stock heads that are freshly redone by machine shop? Can't really afford EQ or rhs heads. I want to for sure change cam because I need the lopey or choppy sound
