For my build, I was recommended something in the 260's @ .050 and around 0.650" lift, so similar to yours. I've got a Victor 383 intake and a few 4150 carbs to choose from (2 different 950's and an old school Holley 4781 850).

That's about what I'm looking at for my 470 build when I get to it. Minus the TR though. Can't wait to see the hotrod of yours make some passes.

That looks badass just sitting there. What were the cam specs again?

Those are the same ones I'll likely go with, only on a 6" wheel. Good looking combo. M&H Racemaster ROD02 M&H Racemaster Radial Drag Race Tires | Summit Racing

Birdsong's cutaway of those green bearings makes them seem pretty pathetic. I'd have expected to see more bearings in that space. I've never had an issue running them, but I'll sure give it some thought next time.

Is the top of the dash blue? If so, I think a blue dash pad and steering wheel would improve the look.

I don't think he has the nuts. :lol:

Do it!!! :poke:

That's a nifty idea! Does the fact that it ends up a tad shorter cause any issue?

What size blanks did you buy? 1/8" long?

No, not even close. When I measured for driveshafts on my 68 and 66 Darts, both only showed about 1/8" - 3/16" difference from full compression to full droop. Most driveshaft shops will have you insert the yoke all the way in until it stops, take a centerline measurement on front and rear...

I'm thinking it wasn't zeroed out. Look closely at the scale. The Mancini one looks to be close to 150mm, whereas the original looks to be maybe 146mm. Not sure what's up with the LCD display.

If the belt grooves are in line and the ratios are what you want, there's no reason why the set up won't work. The alternator pulley looks backwards to me, but if the groove is lined up with the other two, it should still work.

Guys are running larger cams than that on stock roller setups. How much lift with stock magnum roller lifters? It's lobe lift you'd want to consider though, not valve lift.

Access holes are the only way to go in my opinion. That's the route I went on my '66 Dart. I also went with socket cap bolts on those top two to make it easier to feed the bolts through. Makes taking the transmission out a whole lot easier, especially in an early A body.

You shouldn't have to grind anything. Like others said, I'd be on the phone with Mancini and see what they had to say.

I would think it would be better to have one a little on the large side in that spot to squeeze the gasket better, than on the thin side. I bet if you bolt it up, it'd be fine. It'll just squeeze the gasket a little more, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Only one way to find out.

It may just be an optical illusion though because the drum LBJ is thinner. Only one way to find out.

Side by side:

What makes you say that??? There are tons of modified hotrods in California.

Have you checked the FSM? They usually have procedures in them for reinstalling glass. I know the windshield installation procedure calls for sealant on the bottom half. Not sure about the rear glass though.

At the very least, be sure to take it apart to see what's going on before you buy anything. There are several versions of these couplers and they're all slightly different. You may be able to use the shoes in that kit, but you won't be able to use the seal, seal retainer, or spring. Hopefully...

Did you try giving them a call? They'd know better than a bunch of Mopar boneheads on the internet. The site works fine for me btw.

Keep in mind you won't be able to use most of the parts in the kit Rick posted. Your coupler is a completely different shape. I went through the same thing on the couple on my '66 Dart.

Pour some acid on it. Either Phosphoric or Muriatic should work. Then cover it with plastic to slow it from drying. You want it to stay moist. It shouldn't take long. Once converted, hose it down with water.

Is there a fuel leak somewhere? How is mileage being calculated (i.e., how is distance being determined - gps, stock gauge, google maps, etc)?

Which LEDs did you go with?

How would you retain the lifter dog bones? Older LA blocks don't have the bosses cast into the block in the valley for the lifter spider bolts. Plus, I believe the lifter bores are shorter and would uncover the oil grooves on the lifters.
