It appears the sbm and bbm , rear crank flange bolt patterns are identical. Anyone have a Pioneer part # for sbm, flywheel ring gear ? I'm making an aluminum flywheel with Fidanza steel insert. Thanks, ateam.

>> 48mm IDF's are rated at 340cfm, with std. chokes. I suspect supplied ones, are somewhere in the middle ? Flowed at 1.5 or 3" of water ? Lot of gear means 4:10's out back, 3.25,1.955,1.31,1.0 and .753 for 5th. I turn 67' today, and even with all of the fairly low budget compromises, this...

I can lighten the pistons,( my shop). I'm considering Lunati Voodoo cam/lifters, 1,800-6,400 rpm range. Light car, lot's of gearing, 26" tire and long tube 1 5/8" primaries w. 3" collector headers. X pipe, if it will fit. I'm also considering a pair of 48mm Webber IDF's, on the 4bbl manifold...

And if #5 intake lobe on cam, went really flat, might be a cause for 90 psi ? ateam

Toyota Turbo Supra, called AX15 when used in Dodge Dakota trucks,(different ratios). Using Dakota V6 BH for direct fit to 340.

Well, the car is a Jensen Healey roadster, aka "Jensen Jackal". Jensen designed the car to take a small block V8, but then the oil embargo hit, circa 1975 ? I'm building this car as, what might have happened. They used Chrysler/Europe components frequently, as in Jensen Interceptor/ etc. I...

To be bored + .060", yeah I know. Eddy heads, #60779, with mild port work. I have a Magnum Performer RPM intake. Can this be machined for the LA bolt angle ? Speed Pro forged/heavy pistons. K1 H-beam rods, std. length. Forged 318 crank. Considering Eddy's Performer RPM cam,(package design). They...

>> According to the SMR,(convertors) webbsite, A518= 170 lbs dry/no convertor. $l80E = 187 lbs, dry/no convertor and 727 with GV. is 195.55 lbs. Fast 01, thanks for the pic's and info.:burnout: flyingwedge.

>> How does a 727 and a GV, has less drag than a 4L80E ? Cost of a GV is ? I must consider bang for buck, which is why I chose the 4L80E. It is considerably lighter than the A518, and will fit easier. Cheers, flyingwedge.:coffee2:

>> I wasn't able to find a 48RE core. Martin Saine wants $4,600+ my core. Yes, I'm shure it would be a quality build. Speaking only for me, too much $'s and too much tunnel work. I like the power flow of TH400/4L80E's. Unknowm-yet, as a 5-6 speed. Cheers, flyingwedge.

>. I have been informed by JM and trans builders, the 4L80E pump face must be machined flat/parallel, for effective mounting/sealing. I'm prepared to do this. For better up-shifts, I like the design that "releases" frictionals, rater than applying. Some say this is an advantage of the TH400 and...

New "Ultrabell" with SFI sticker,and A518 core trans, with TCS convertor = $750. Street/strip bb 727, with Cheetah rev/man. VB and 8" convertor =$550. A500 core trans = $300. Local pick-up or meet at Spring Fling. Thanks, ateam.:cheers:

>> I haven't received adapter BH yet. Will it requre an adapter ring ? Anyone running a 4L80E, built by Hughes ? Thanks, flyingwedge.

Hi, anyone running a similar trans combo ? Considering a US Shift/Quick 1 controller, and JM flexplate. I need feedback. Thanks, ateam.:coffee2:
