    I have a 1404 edelbrock which is 500 cfm on a crate 360.The intake is an edelbrock rpm air gap. It seems to be running rich, and is sounds like bacon cooking (the small popping sound) I noticed while I'm trying to adjust it. Its doesn't seem to matter if I adjust the air fuel mix screws in or...

    high temp. low oil pressure, crap gauges

    Nothing is puking out of the radiator, and my oil pressure at idle is 15ish psi @ temp. I don't know if the gauges are reading right. But I do want to run a different oil blend- what would be a great or better blend being that I live in Utah which this Duster is a highway and almost daily...

    high temp. low oil pressure, crap gauges

    Im getting burned out on my new to me 74 duster. Has a 360, new crate says previous owner. Anyway. I put in a 160 stat cause the 195 stat was stressing me out at stop lights and she will get to the 215~220 range. Now she still gets in the 190~200 range and it still stresses me. i think my main...

    Thermostat or no thermostat?

    Running without a thermostat will not give your radiator a fighting chance to cool down the fluid you have in it. Try running a 160 stat before you try running nothing. Make sure you run a water/coolant mix ,the water with help activate the coolant.

It would only take a max...

    Well I could not fight it anymore! My love for Mopars has come out. I have been an owner and lovers for chevys for a long time. But I found myself getting board with them, I still love them but not enough to own one. I purchased a 74 Duster with a 360. It was someone else's toy and it turned in...
