My combo I run in my d150. 360 magnum, .030 forged flat tops with 2 valve reliefs. .001 in the hole. .039 headgasket. EQ heads worked by brian hafliger. Comp mutha thumper cam installed 4* retarded. Mopar m1 single plane. Holley hp series 750. 15/8 hedmans. 727 10" 3600 converter. 3.55's. I...

I still want to know exactly what a "j" converter is Lol

Still available? How old?

Also, i mocked up the engine in the 4 corners. My deck height was off from end to end. I wanted to end up with a .040 squish, so my block was decked to put the pistons at .01 down. I used a .039 compressed felpro headgasket. After talking with brian, and to keep my engine pump 93 friendly, it...

I built a clone of the sledgehammer engine with the following exceptions. I used wiseco piston kit( pts527a3) and scat rods(2-icr26123-2124). Got a really good buy on both. And used my existing m1 single plane. Engine is in my 85 d150 and i couldnt be happier. I did have my assembly balanced...

They make forward pattern also. Butvas others have said, try a bunch of diffrent ones and the track or friends or something. Make model of vehicle dont matter when ya looking for a certain feel

I run a reverse valve body, and of all of tried through the years, itvis by far been the easiest to operate. My 13yo daughter can drive it. Its that easy, never misses and has hard stops

I prefer a Hurst 1/4 stick

I dont imagine that cam has alot of manifold vaccum. Guessing initial timing should be 16 degrees or so( every engine is different) i would think it would run better if total timing was in by 2800-3000.. and possibly more converter

Yes swap those 2. Vacuum canister on distributor

good deal, glad u have it figured out

If the intermediate shaft was installed correctly, by the look of the vcan, youve got alot of timing in it. And as was said, move the 2 large vaccum lines. Pcv should be at carb, booster should be full manifold vaccum. Im not a big fan of edelbrock carbs, but thats just me. A 700 or 750 holley...

So what was the problem?

You can, once you have 0, and #1 pointing at the correct pole on the cap. If you have timing tape, or marked your balancer, if you want to rotate the motor to say 12 btdc, roll the motor to that mark, move the distributor to line back up on the cap, and lock it down. May not be exact, but will...
