I would venture that the reason for keeping the adjuster cup close to the rocker has nothing to do with strength.......but more to do with rocker ratio. The further out of the body the adjuster is, the more 'ratio' that is lost on the prod side resulting in lost valve lift & duration.

Yep, see you there dude !

I will be there tomorrow night through Saturday with a couple friends. Looking forward to seeing the engine out of my dart make some passes in my buddies race car. It was never going to make passes in mine since I am building a new engine so it will be cool to see it run. See you there Bill, and...

IF the crank rotated, I would pay $500 MAX. And that would still be a gamble.

Yeah. If you know a guy with a lathe, that’s about 10 minutes to make a spacer..

I got a look at a Mitchell emissions book and another book I can't remember the name of today. Answers are still fuzzy but this is what I learned. It goes by year, type of vehicle (truck/van) and gross vehicle weight. 1978 has much less in the way of emissions because Dodge utilized the...

Wish you good luck!

I can't have the drink , sounds yummy but nope lol

No steaks on this trip. Bacon and eggs, hash browns and French toast for breakfast, burgers and fries for lunch and carne asada street tacos for dinner. Oh, and some special moonshine lemonade on ice to quench the thirst…. lol

He's gotta go move his son back home for the summer

No Tim?

Depending on when your 75 was made, it might still have some remnants of the 74 seat belt interlock system that was a one year disaster. If yours was an early build (August, September or October) 1975 then it likely still has wires for it. Post up some pictures of your engine bay and your...

No Tim

did you grab the steaks? ginger ale?

That's the best MO, You work those & get great #'s in a tight bore, most cases it only gets better from there...but being these are totally different design heads, I'm curious how they compare with the closer bore proximity, strictly flow-wise anyhow.

John's addicted to burning race fuel and rubber, with out it he suffers severe depression, headaches and can be very cranky. lol He likes to cook to keep his mind off it, but he can only eat so much. So lets hope the 2024 race season brings the needed therapy.

So a stock 318 with bolt on parts. Yeah gotta have that MSD. They too have failure rates and some of them are quite frequent.

Jeez, I thought you were eating dinner or finally watching the mariners rerun lol

Wiring degrades over time from carrying current, so yes, it is old and used because of age. Plenty of cars have burned to the ground because of hacking old and new together. Good luck!

Were there any for sale at Spring Fling this year? If so, what were they asking at the show?

lol, was packing **** up and loading the motorhome so I don’t have to do it in the morning.

Nice work, Les!

It isn’t bad due to age, the previous owner hacked wires up and I have a bunch of disconnected wires and connectors

Hughes whiplash cam, edlebrock intake and carb is really the other things done to it. The reason for going MSD is simply because I hate carrying spare ignition and ballast

Probably not a good plan as ALL of that factory wiring harness is the same age. OLD.

Maybe if you tell everyone here what you actually want to DO with your car, you'll get some more useful answers.

Probly a good plan! However I don’t have a big budget so I’m trying to do this 100% from scratch! Using what little is needed from the original harness

Yeah I understand that. Im going to need a straight jacket if I don't get any passes atleast sometime before the end of the season lol.

We cannot answer that since you have the car THERE and WE cannot see it. My first question would be how is your 318 built and why does it need an MSD ignition?
