    nitrous ring gapping

    thanks for the info guys. i said the hell with it tonight. did it at a loose .032 to give it a little extra room. loose meaning the feeler gauge was not that hard to get in between the rings when in the bore. ill keep you guys updated. nitrous shouldnt be in the car until around...

    nitrous ring gapping

    5.0's after between 89 and 92 i believe but thanks for your info. i did not even consider that the extra gap only applies to the top ring - my only reservation was running into blowby. it seems that if i run the right amount of gap with a dedicated fuel system and proper timing that I...

    nitrous ring gapping

    on a kb hyper piston? i know this will probably bring up all kinds of "dont spray hypers" but KB said it should be fine if the fuel is there. what do you think?

    nitrous ring gapping

    I want to eventually install nitrous on my 340 which I will begin assembling tomorrow. I do not have the kit, but I do have the fuel system to sufficently supply it. What i am asking is would you think that my motor would be sloppy while not on the nitrous with the additional ring gap ie: .032...

    Stopped at a car show tonight.

    my first car show was a great experience being that it was for the local mopar club. other shows have been nice too, I just hate getting treated with a "cute car kid" sort of attitude from the non mopar owners. Thus the 8" converter, 4.56's, low gear set, m/t drag radials and new motor will do...

    12 second 340

    check ebay for the low gear set, i got mine for $55 shipped as far as gear.....i went 4.56, and if I could do it again I would. 4.30's would really wake it up ;). no comparison from a set of 3.91's to the new gears.

    high amp alternator?

    Thanks for the info. So, for the one wire I should use the 2 gauge all the way back to the battery? I just installed a Ron Francis harness on the car. Do you think that would handle a 100 amp?

    high amp alternator?

    I want a good one wire setup that can run an electric fan, electric fuel pump, and electric water pump on the street.......with headlights and a radio as well. I have an external regulator, but would prefer one with a built in regulator. Who sells a good 100 - 120 amp setup for a small block...
