    water leaks

    Ok, ran some water tests. Not from the plenum area for sure. Wiper arms rebuilt with new seals, so I guess that leaves the windshield seal corners. The windshield seal was replaced when I did the paint work, and no rust anywhere in the corners. I guess that leaves the seal install itself -...

    water leaks

    I have water leaking in from both sides near the kick panels - most likely coming from the cowl plenum on my 74 Duster. Did I miss something when I had the front end off the car during restoration? Plenum drain tubes??? Thanks, John

    Magnum 318 / 360 engine

    Nice plan Rob. Trick Flow is probably the way to go with a stroker kit and when you figure in head machining costs. Pic = my low cost ring squaring tool for under 4" bores ( reads 318).

    Magnum 318 / 360 engine

    Thanks Rob. Ya, The 96 318 Motor I bought had cracked heads ( 7 out of 8 chambers - between the seats ). Since I did some pocket port work on them anyway, I just had some fresh seats put in them. Will keep your post in mind for future head purchases though. I'm up to speed on 727 rebuilds, but...

    Magnum 318 / 360 engine

    Thanks for the feed back all!! All good info I can use in my search. Just finished a 96 Dakota (318 & 46RE) in to a 74 Duster. Package came with no electronics, so I went "old school" with a 727. I want to "step up" with my next project ( Magnum, TPI, computer, OBD2. A whole truck purchase (...

    Magnum 318 / 360 engine

    My post didn't generate much feed back? Maybe if I simplify it and just say; Looking for a Dodge / Chrysler in my local bone yard with a 318 / 360 Magnum engine and drivetrain to swap in to my next project car. What years would I be looking for? Any years better than others? - avoiding the...

    [FOR SALE] A/C pump and clutch

    The compressor fits any small block. I bought it as a remanufactured unit and ran R134A in it. Worked great. You just have to make sure you run the correct oil - going from R12 to R134A. In my case, I had to dump the oil in the crankcase ( measure how much you take out ) and refill with pag oil...
