That's cheap enough too, Racer ;)

While having recent problems with the synchronizers and tranny locking up, My neighbor mentioned that a friend of his had a 833 he may be interested in selling. Not expecting a deal, I asked him for a price. He said, 'would $100 be ok?' I gulped and answered, yes!' I just picked it up. out of a...

I'll let the rebuild mechanic do the count. I just thought the model, engine, & gear ratio would be enough to order the correct kit. BTW Thanks for all the replies fellows. Ya'll are the best!

I'm ordering a 833 rebuild kit for my 1970 340 Duster. The supplier keeps asking for a tooth count on the gear set. Don't I have the 23 spline? It's a 323 posi. What's he talking about?

about 25psi. it is as slight rattle or vibrating noise deep in the engine. slight but not normal. i used heavy duty truck oil for the break in. i thought forged pistons dispersed heat better and had more strength at high performance levels. the rings will be thinner too for less abrasion?

I just put a Purple hydraulic cam with new rocker heads and push rods in my 340 Duster. But I'm hearing a little noise and losing oil pressure as the engine heats. Could this be the enging bearing? If I have to tear down the engine, I'm thinking of boring the block & putting forged pistons. Will...
