    Leaking Holley 1920

    Thank you Dan. Nitrophyl was the term I was looking for. Maybe some Permatex blackberry syrup type gasket sealer would help? I was just looking at 1920 images. Some have brass floats. They may be available for the Mopar 1920's.

    Slant 6 timing help- Torqstorm and Sniper EFI

    If you are running 30* ADC? You can't move the slant distributor 30* without loosening the collar on it or jumping a tooth or more on the drive gear.

    Slant 6 timing help- Torqstorm and Sniper EFI

    ...a checkbook build so he hasn't got the knowledge. Are you planning on adding an intercooler? Looks like you would have to clock the turbine 180* for the piping. Knowing the temp of the compressed air might be a good thing. Maybe something that can be read by the controller. Running "X"...

    Is there a junkyard gem slant six combo?

    I want to go EFI/turbo eventually. Lighter reciprocating assembly, possibly a lighter block too. The cast crank should handle a turbo. Narrow the rod ends so I don't have to buy K1 rods.

    Stock exhaust manifolds vs headers

    600cfm is kind of large. Whatever happened to the 390 Holley's? I used to run consistent 10.58's in the 1/8th with 3 on the tree, 198 open 3:23's, M-1 intake 318 BB or a Holley 2bbl off a slant. Stock valves and cam, Hooker headers with a H pipe crossover duals out the back, with Superior...

    Is there a junkyard gem slant six combo?

    Cast crank engines have narrower rod journals don't they? I was wanting to pull the rods out of my '72 198 to use that engine for the lighter crank, and if I remember right lighter block. I am eyeing my neighbor's '80 or '81 van. A friend used to own that van and I knew that van when it was...

    What's the best way to find a dead cylinder?

    Infrared gun told me #4 was pumping @ambient temperature. I had drilled out a jets on a BBD which mad it pig rich on the dyno. I may have wiped the rings on my low mileage 198. It has been sitting since 2009. Driving over the road left me no time to play with it. When I came off the road it was...

    Troubleshooting Head Components

    240 Ford inline 6 had the valve seals laying in the bottom of the head. (claimed 9.2:1 factory compression) Tons of carbon in the chambers. 100K on it. Smoked bad, had tons of compression due to the clumps of carbon that made the chambers smaller. Tons of crap on the pistons too. Burned a lot...

    Would the block deck need to be level so to test the entire circumference?

    Troubleshooting Head Components

    Mopars have soft valve guides. Mic the stems, then mic the guides. I would really have the guides replaced without all the measuring.

    Troubleshooting Head Components

    I agree light sludge. Diesel oil is high in detergents. I run that in my cars. Rotella semi-synthetic. Had the intake off my '97 Lesabre a couple of weeks ago. I could see the valve stems. Clean like new. 230K+ on it. Really clean every where else.

    TorqStorm Supercharger build advice needed

    Mopars have soft valve guides. Rev it up, lift and look at the tail pipe. If it is sucking oil through the valve guides you will have blue smoke. WIFI cameras are really cheap, Look and see if you have a bunch of crud on the top surfaces of your valves.

    TorqStorm Supercharger build advice needed

    4.0 TBI is a good candidate off a jeep. Blowers eat fuel and horsepower. Turbo is an easy fit in a truck. 3.8 Buicks pick up 2mpg with the blower belt off.

    63 Dart overheating issue

    When filling wait for the gauge to tick upwards to show the thermostat came open, and not installed backwards. Then top off. Your system wasn't originally designed for a overflow reservoir. You may need to go to a different pressure rated cap. I am sure you have E10 in Canada. Ethanol will...

    How can I get these nuts off of the throttle so I can slide in the kickdown linkage

    The kickdown linkage needs to be attached and adjusted. The new part you ordered looks like an accident waiting to happen. Get the genuine part. Don't be stubborn. Grow a thick skin and ask the stupid questions, the members here will be of great help to you and help steer you the right way...

    Building a slant for torque

    Career change. Went to driving trucks. Had to go over the road for 15 months. Duster hasn't moved since 2009. I have a D350 CTD that sat since 2011 or so. It's back running sort of driving. It has a fueling problem. I am thinking it's the injector pump. I bought a used IP and a bunch of extra...

    Building a slant for torque

    Does any of the cam grinders make an RV cam for the slant? My philosophy on head porting on the street for the slant is port match the intakes to the gasket. Don't touch the intake. Allegedly it creates a small amount of anti-reversion/minor ram effect. I read that many years ago in reference...

    Anyone run the Weber knock off 38 progressive 2bl here on their 225?

    I think the Clifford I had the water box was cast in. I never used the intake. That or the Offy. There has been several models of the Clifford 4bbl. One had the bosses with the water box. One didn't have the bosses.
