    Charles Servedio just posted a video porting SBM cast iron intake with Thermoquad

    As far as the intake? Just common sense stuff. Made the upper floor as low as I could, added material to some corners, took away material in others just trying to lessen angles and make everything bigger. Learned how to weld cast iron to put it all back together when I was done. I'm running...

    Huh. It's amazing how much I don't know about what I don't know. Makes me want to get a flow bench and build another intake and waste a few more months of my life.

    I am wondering the same thing. I've never played with a flow bench, but my mind can't wrap around why bolting a carburetor to an intake manifold would draw the numbers down that much if any when only one cylinder is being flowed?

    Interesting. I don't see any signature lines for anyone. Maybe because I look on the forum with a phone?

    Maybe he was simply asking what your YouTube channel/name is/was? I searched moparofficial and nothing came up. Always interested in what people are doing with hunks of iron. Not for nothing and I understand sometimes it's about the journey but KG engines has a cnc program for the J's and X's...

    1970 340 block

    Acquired this standard bore 340 block, was trying to decide what it came from the other day and couldn't. The red paint was throwing me off also. Any ideas from my terrible pictures?

    273 issue on 65 Valiant

    A terrible choice for a camshaft on what we are to assume is a stock compression, stock heads, stock intake 2bl 273. It's never going to be anything resembling fast in today's world. As far as losing power, is it stalling out or just not pulling hard? Fuel tank vents intact and clean?

    HP limit of 1973 A body V8 340 manifolds?

    Here is the current passenger side manifold on my car. It has been 10.11@133. The outlet is just under 2". If you look at it and don't think it's a restriction even in its current form on a stock motor...

    Can you successfully weld on stock exhaust manifolds?

    I've used muggy weld quite a bit. Very expensive rods. I used it for tig welding and found it quite a pain to clean the flux off, polish the rods clean to use. I've found silicon bronze to work pretty well also. Welding cast iron is very dependent on the parent metal on whether it's going...

    Can you successfully weld on stock exhaust manifolds?

    As said, wrong manifold for a 71. Welding cast iron manifolds is definitely doable. Making it look like it wasn't done without some type of coating is near impossible, if not impossible.
