Boring out the slant doesn't have huge benefits. Even if you over bore it .080 you've only gained 15 or so cubes. Wiesco is offering some new pistons for the slant, but probably won't fit your needs vs. cost. The four barrel is probably a little much from the sounds of what your looking for. The...

I'm still confused on the definition of these "old school" tricks? If anything you want to look at what technology has to offer. I run a TBI off of a Megasquirt, along with a Jacobs kit fed by the square waves translated by the HEI. Distributor is locked except for the Tachometer input, this...

Fair enough, it was mildly hurtful to see good people get such hurtful words. I understand that Dan has caused some problems, I personally get more and more furious with every post I read, but I like slants and the guys I get to race with. FABO I check into every once in a while to see if I can...

First off, you asked 6 questions, with 6 answers from one person and we are automatically A-holes? I've butted heads with Dan before also, but that is nothing. I talked to a Jeep forum for my girlfriend, they ridiculed me and told me since I was 19 I had no idea how to turn a wrench. That was...

first off I would think you want something like this as your final project: http://www.slantsix.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=27196&highlight=buster. I picked it up when I was 17 and had it painted in 5 months. I'm 20 now and have leather seats and EFI, but you got some time. First my aunt's Mach 1...

Of course there is better years than others for blocks. Up to a point either 68 or 72 Mopar's bean counters started pulling out nickel to help reduce costs. What I suppose you mean with the 340 comment is that a lower power 340 and 360 will be comprable which I believe. But I wouldn't dare dream...

Reading Mopekid's stuff I'm glad we came at this at two angles so we can find middle ground or compromise. The idea of a roller cam would be awesome, I'm still a little confused on definition but I think we saying the same thing... I always understood that the call of mechanical, hydraluic...

Not to be rude, but if you were going to junkyard a magnum motor, why would you convert it to a carb? It seems like it would be easier to get the pump and efi hose and have your self modern comforts. However, not a bad idea to take advantage of modern performance..... However, yes if you were...

Man, this is an interesting place to start posting here, but everyone seems real nice. To start I'm a slant six guy, I've done a little bit of small block stroker, a lot of 302 and even more slant six stuff. So, if you'll notice my age, you'll conclude that I studied with an engine builder and...
