i always used to put a gob of moly grease on the input shaft which is designed for bushings and worked very well. it does look like you need to align your bell housing. get some offset dowels from you chrysler dealer p4120383. i now run the pilot bearing p5007051 for older motors. my 416 steel...
why don't you just build a 360 ? for that hp range it can be done quite easily with a well prepped combo. if you are dead set on building a stroker 390 again why not just use a 360 block and build a 408. there are tons of them out there. stock edelbrock heads with a holley strip dominator...
hey tarrin, the flywheel i have here is for a steel crank. now instead of wrecking your new flywheel, just drill the one that is in there. tell doug i have the picture in my direct connection chassis book that shows where and how deep you have to drill the flywheel.
tarrin the part number for cast crank flywheel is 3681639. this is the oem number. i'm going to check the number i have on one in my garage right now and i'll get back to you
a 73 340 4 speed was built and it did have a cast crank. i would just look for a cast crank flywheel for a 340. p4529110 from mopar performance for cast crank external balance 340-360. brewers performance has a weight kit for the mcleod flywheel part # on the flywheel is fw102...
i run w2's holley tunnel ram with 2 660's .585 solid with 259 @.50 ultradyne 10.5:1. it makes an honest 550 hp. pushes my 3700 lbs challenger to 7.37 @ 94 mph in the 1/8 mile. ran same combo but with a victor w2 and an 830 holley to 7.48 @ 92. car is street driven often and it's just hard on gas...
that is very cool. my niece has a 72 swinger special but it was a /6 car. in my opinion the grilles on the 72 darts and demons are the most menacing of all the a bodies with a close second to the 71-2 duster sharktooth
nash 5 speeds are great tranny's as well, but they break quite often. lots of gear jammers where i live, and like you said super t 10 is now basically the nash 5 speed. they break and they break often. the g force is basically a nash 5 speed turned on it's side and heavily modified internals to...
take 8:1 340 trw pistons and cut them down. any machine shop can do it. i can't remember how much you have to cut them down but u end up with like 11.8:1 with a 65cc chamber. i have a 360 built like this
a super t-10 should not even be compared to an 833 and the muncies are junk. there is a reason in super stock and pro stock before there were clutchless tranny's every manufacturer used the 833. no ford top loaders, no muncies and no t-10 junk. now if you want compare how well they all shift for...
would be pretty shocking ! think how hard your "pulling" vehicle has to work. with my cummins i always wonder how it can run for 20 straight hours (except fuel ups) and not even have a hicup. my race car has to do maybe 10-12 1/8 mile passes a day and i'm worried about it ?
