    Another 87 octane/aluminum heads question

    ...four years since I screwed it together, can't recall the dynamic CR or the IVC on the cam. Seems like calculated dynamic was around 8.2:1 I run 4* more initial timing than spec on the TBI in ambient temps of up to 115 degrees, a 195 T-stat and 87 octane with no rattles. It has fresh air to...

    Crank Sensor

    Posted this in fuel/air too, trying to increases my chances lol.....my apologies. I have a TBI LA360 with a non-stock compression ratio, need to take the timing control away from the PCM. To do that I need two separate signals, one to trigger the ignition, one to the PCM so it will trigger...

    Fuel Only Factory TBI

    Not sure exactly where to post this, here, Magnum swaps or the ignition section, but here we go. I have a TBI LA360 with a non-stock compression ratio, need to take the timing control away from the PCM. To do that I need two separate signals, one to trigger the ignition, one to the PCM so it...

    Timing Chain Tensioner Oiling

    The stock cam retainer plate has a relief on the back, aligns with the right bank galley, and the galley plug had a hole for lubing the chain. Replaced that with a tensioner, which has no relief on the back, and the plug the machine shop installed has no oil hole. Chain/top gear gonna run too...

    Retainers

    Been looking for retainers that'll fit '90 308 heads. Type 1990 360 into Summit's or Jeg's search engine and I get nothing. One goes to '89 and the other '86. Far as I know they're the same, but not 100% certain. Jeg's has some Comp retainers, but they seem pretty generic. Fits Ford, Chevy...

    cam spec card

    ...pointer on a degree wheel should be to the right side of the TDC mark at .050" lift? Installed centerline's 111, had to advance the cam a full 8* to get there. Helped the .050" opening number, at least it's at 12* atc instead of 20*. Watching the indicator, the closing point is way screwed...

    Dodge vs. Ford-Ford Wins...sort of....

    Wreck on I-20 just outside of town. The Ford blew a tire, crossed the median and hit the Dodge head on. There were four guys in the Dodge, the two in the front seat were killed, the other two critical. A woman and three passengers in the Ford, all came through alive. Not trying to be morbid...

    Ad Blockers

    Broadband is all that's available where I live, tired of waiting for news stories etc to fully load, and tired of being bombarded with ads period. Can't watch a news vid {Or what passes for news these days} without watching the stupid commercial first, so who makes the best ad blocker...

    Does ANYBODY make decent headers?

    ...on them look like somebody crapped on the flanges and smoothed it off with a hacksaw. Tired of substandard parts because I drive a Mopar. To my knowledge TTI doesn't make block huggers, know of ANYONE who takes pride in their work or am I going to have to build the #%*& things myself?

    Intake Port Tumble

    These are '90 360 pickup 308 intake ports, and as you can see the mismatch is awful, about 3/16". This gasket is very close to the Air Gap's port size. If I open the port to gskt size, looks to me like that will only induce more tumble on the backside of the pinch. I'm going to pare down the...

    Dog Killin' Coyote

    Was out in the yard today letting the dogs run around a little. Heard a single yelp, turned around and a coyote had the wife's chihuahua in it's mouth, already headed for the pasture. {I have 20 acres} Bold sob, broad daylight, and not 10 yds from me. Came right up in the back yard and snagged...

    Any plumbers here/Easy Water system

    Heard this advertised on the radio. www.easywater.com Anybody have or seen one used? Looks like an offshoot of a fuel ionizer to me, and we know how well those work..........{not} Judging from the wire wrapped around the pipe, it creates a magnetic feild which supposedly realigns the crap...

    Shortest Fairytale

    Once upon a time a man asked a girl to marry him. She said "NO!" And he lived happily ever after, and worked on his hotrods, hunted, fished, played golf, drank beer, got laid regularly, scratched and farted whenever he wanted. The End.

    Yeah,well, Avenger begins with an "A"....

    Have a line on a decent '97 Avenger with a Mitsu 2.5 V6 for cheap. Run around town car for the wife. Anybody have any experience with/owned that motor? I've seen 3.0's puffing blue smoke, because of valve guide issues from what I'm told. Any troubles with the 2.5?

    '90 roller block

    The LA roller architecture is supposedly the same as a Magnum, right? How much lift will the factory setup swallow before the lifter hits the guide link? Eyeballing with the stock cam on the base circle, looks like the link limits lift to around .520" with a 1.5 rocker.

    60-62 wagon

    In the market for a builder Lancer or Valiant wagon that's fairly complete. Got one you'd part with? Preferably within 6-700 miles of Odessa Tx, but might go further for the right car.
