I actually was getting some popping last night. Did you mean rotor?

I installed the rotor last night. Im still learning on the optimum place for the rotor position.

I’ve had it running since last summer. It’s never really ran great. It’s a 416 motor. I’m just kinda starting over to see if I’m missing anything. The crank is set at 12 degrees. The rotor is showing arcing of the leading edge as well.

Does the skinny tooth look too far in? They say in the manual just entering the pickup. I just got the Adj rotor today.

thanks for the help...lol I must have the only 416 on here.

So your saying to took course sand paper and sanded the crank journal. Then you took steel wool to smooth it. Did you plasti-gage the bearing clearance first to see if you needed standard bearings? Chances are you are going to need to remove the crank and mic it to determine bearing clearance...

Im building my first Chrysler/Stroker Engine. Im looking for direction on my build. This is just gonna be a street car to cruise and have fun. This is what I have so far 70 Plymouth Duster-Full interior 68 340 .030 over Molnar steel 4.0" stroke crank Molnar H beam rods Ross -22cc dished piston...

Ill have to go measure it, its been awhile, I think the rear is around 42", the tires are MT 315-about 28 inces tall and 13.5 wide(drag radials). Has SS springs. I made the spring boxes. I wanna say the rim is 5" offset, cant remember. :

Thanks for the compliments!!, I have a pic with the hood on it, just need to get it posted.

Just a few pics of the progress I got done.

I am looking for black trim to go along the bottom where the knobs are. Do you just use contact paper? I have seen the woodgrain kits for the upper, but would like to go all black with chrome guage rings. Am i not looking in the right place.
