    Set "total" timing on a stock 318 two-barrel where?

    Arriving a little late to the show. I was able to get 25 degrees of mechanical advance with the FBO plate by filing carefully the 0 degree slots which I would never have used anyway. Pretty much the same as you would do after welding the slots on the cam. My 2 cents.

    A little walk around video? Here goes:

    Funny because I've never owned a big block anything, not that avoided big blocks, it just happened so. The 73 Charger was a 318 (later a 360), a 77 Formula with an Olds 403, a 71 Nova with a straight six, a 65 Impala with a 283 and now the Satellite with the 318... I guess I wouldn't mind a 440...

    A true Mopar fanatic I see. Winters are brutal here too, Nevada was a long time ago and no more vintage classic daily driver anymore, the Satellite doesn't go out between December and March. I'd really like a mid 70's Dodge Adventurer Club cab or even a D150 but I couldn't bear wasting it on...

    I thought you might enjoy some pictures of my regretted daily driver: a 1973 Dodge Charger in the desert near Pyramid Lake, back when I lived in Nevada:

    A little late reply but, wow, you got a nice stable indeed! So many ponies, so little time lol.

    I guess I got lucky to find mine at a decent price thanks to a coworker some 5 years ago. It was totally unexpected and I too thought I was priced out of the 68-70 B Bodies, I was more considering A Bodies or some unloved 3rd generation Charger. I can appreciate other underdogs such as early...

    "Omaha Orange", you're right! I was convinced it was "Vitamin C Orange" but that must be it. Its original color was F5 green though.

    It wouldn't be complete without a couple of pictures showing the little motor and the interior. The seats were replaced by some previous owner a long time ago and they could actually very well be originally from a post 1969 A Body, they're definitely not 1969 but I like them:

    I agree. I wish I had a bigger garage though...

    Thank you for the welcome, I will happy to post some pictures very soon. I also love all things Mopar, my first one was a 1973 Dodge Charger coupe with, again, a little 318 later replaced with a 360.
