I do but mostly Call of Duty 4

I have the painted FlowTech headers on my 1978 Aspen with a 360 and I like them. Noticable power gain over my stock manifolds. Just my $.02 Thats not a bad price for the ceramic coated headers.

I will try another fuel pressure gauge tomorrow and go from there.

Just reached 100 miles on my freshley rebuilt 318. Have not had any problems till I got home from work today. I pulled on to my street and the engine stumbled then shut off. So I pulled over and it started up with no problem. I have a fuel pressure gauge in line to the carb and it was reading...

You should'nt as long as you flushed all the red coolant out of the radiator, lines, and the engine. I just converted my brothers 2001 Ram 1500 from green to red coolant and have had no problems.

Go with the 5.7L way more towing power and the fuel milage between the two is not that much of a difference.

It is you engine block to transmission bellhousing brace for the 1st pic. Goes on the right & left sides on the bottom of the engine. Not sure about the second pic. I took the (1st pic) braces out of my Dart and have had no problems with anything.

Will give that a try tommorow Brambles. Thanks for the advice.

Replaced my plugs today and guess what I found out. Cylinder 6 & 8 wires were swapped! Also found out that my idle mixture screws were turned almost all the way counterclockwise. Turned them in all the way and backed them out 3 turns and drove it for about 30 mins and pulled a plug clean as a...

I replaced just two plugs #2&4 cylinder with new plugs just for quicker testing. The plugs are not fouling with any fluids they are getting covered with black sooty powder. Oil level is fine any does'nt have abnormal smell to it. Will try and post a pic of the plugs tomorrow b/c is at my work place.

Swaped everything from my brothers engine(which runs perfectly, plugs are clean on his engine) to mine and it still does the same thing! I am getting real frustrated with this problem. What else could it be. I've tried everything that I can think of. Plus with everything off of my brothers...

Thats true. Must have slipped my mind.

I will check my PCV vavle and try everything you said djwhog tomorrow and keep ya'll updated. Are you refering to the flap on the pass. side exhaust manifold. If so I had it cut out and the holes welded up by the way.

I tried three different dizzys, no change.
