Yes it didn’t take me long to figure that out. I was about 21 ish at the time and didn’t know that then.

Before I moved to a R block and R3 blocks, I broke a 77 360 block, I honestly don’t think it was from the power, but more of the machine shop I was using at the time. I had them put offset outer 4 bolt pro gram caps on it. There isn’t enough meat for the outer 3/8 bolts in a factory block. Had...

I saw it go 5.10@132 and change yesterday on the live feed at scsn. And that’s on a 8.5 radial tire. Or that’s the class he is running in.

Thank you for your insight, I will call Him. I have a w8,f2 procharged auto, 69 swinger race car that sits in the garage. I like to play with the sticks now. Way more fun

I don’t know exactly what the pressure plate is. Was allegedly called a borg warner power brute clutch from the 70s is all I know. I haven’t been able to wrangle up any info on it using that info tho. It honestly works great just isn’t lasting as long as I would like. I would like to stay along...

I know the answer but would like to hear some opinions from racers on their opinions. Car in question, think day 2 old school build. Car combo, 69 340 swinger stock weight, 340ci, 13.39comp, ported w2s, strip dom, .641 solid roller, scatter shield, ram rod etc etc. 4.88 gear, 28 tall tire...

I’m so sorry about your bro, sometimes I just don’t understand life. Sounds like a cool guy and car you have. I will look at the control arms for you also and get back to you. it’s gonna be a few days.

You’re very welcome, He repainted it as the shop he was storing it in was broken into in the late 80s. They drug the tool box that was on a bench in front of the car over the car and over the roof ripping the og vinyl top and junking the paint. I can look, he was unfortunately recently killed in...

Ok, the proper original rear spring part number is 3722292 for both the pass and driver side. I just crawled under my dad’s car to look for you. So I was positive….This again is the og spring number for a 73, 340 4spd duster. Hope this helps

I’m a hardcore sb guy so my vote is swayed lol. That being said when I was 16yrs old in 1996 my 1st motor I raced with was a non rebuilt motor home 360. I put stock x heads on it a 509cam and a strip dom intake and went 12.22@108 and change at 3250. Just used what was available to me. For...

Thank you, it’s really nice. Front tire size is 155/80 on a 15x4.5 wheel

I will look tomorrow for you. I have my dad’s 73,340 4spd duster he bought new in my garage. I can give you the original numbers.

Since I had a pilot bushing failure I thought I would post that it had the grey looking pilot bushing in it. Note to self, no good don’t use. It seized or tried to. I had lubed it upon installation. Made 14 or 15 passes. Junk lol.

Let me start off and say I have a 69 340 swinger daily driver with 22k miles I have put on it with a roller bearing, street strip with zero issue. My latest 69 340 swinger that has a high comp old school w2 340 I put together with leftover parts came with a pilot bushing in the crank. I never...

It’s a turd so far, haven’t worked at anything to make it rip yet. Way wrong gears, vert, a bunch of stuff. It’s not in its power so it sucks. Just got it to live for more than 5ft. 5.40@133 at altitude. It used to run with a 430, 59 degree -1, na deal 5.80s at 3250lbs. So I expect a bunch more...
