Recomended flex plate and torque converter for my 5.9 magnum engine
But we do t know how he balanced it.
Where is that build thread?
All I got was a dyno sheet
Some info off the tread:
(Mike MRL) "Hello all. I have a 318 Mini stroker we just finished. Its basically a 318 with a 360 crank. Stock Magnum heads, reconditioned with some Minor work done. I used an old school MP flat tappet cam 260/268 duration. Dual plane Air Gap style intake with a Proform 600 mech carb. FBO ignition system. 9 to 1 compression, runs great on 87 fuel."
"Stock Silvolite 1.741ch. milled the tops down .065(down in hole .008 after deck clean-up) and milled a small 10cc dish. The crown was .325 thick so more than enough for a little removal. Also had to take a bit off the skirt as it interfered with the counterweights, no big deal. Easy Peasy cheap mini stroker and it ran better than expected."
"The only thing i see that would be an issue is the flywheel. This engine is basically a 360 in a 318 block. It will require a 1993 and later flywheel, external balance as any normal 360 magnum. Other than that everything else will work just fine."
Rumblefish you have given me lots of help and feed back on this engine when I first purchased it last summer. When I was going to go 4 speed, you seemed to know a lot about this MRL built engine that Mike built.
Again all I got was a dyno sheet..... when it was sent Mike told me a build sheet would be sent along in the crate with it.
As most members know this was the last business transaction before Mike closed his shop.
Thanks for your time and effort much appreciated.
