Sorry I got to this so late. You’re right, that measurement is crucial. I managed to make it to shop and up on ramp to measure. We measured 3 times and got 55 3/8” . My shop are excellent at chassis set-up - we had a long chat and agreed we’d go with the drum to drum measurement we had and would...

Sorry - work got in the way of life. I’ve ordered the rear end - coming after the Christmas holidays. Absolutely love the look and stance of your Duster!! Spot on with the pro touring observation - exactly what I’m looking for - I love corners - so want something that rides well but is punchy...

Thank you, again. I have called my shop, and booked her in, as they are specialists in chassis dynamics and will measure everything, including space to the quarters and advise on tyre widths and we can address the axel width. I think this is too important for me to make a guesstimate -...

Spot on - I have those - it’s the measurement outside drum to outside drum I need but am wondering if I can go a little wider than the existing 7.25.

Thank you, as ever, lots of good advice. Am thinking i need to measure in any case....but..... Two things: Am not sure if i have a BBP, i think it might be SBP, as this is the stock 1973 axel. Am not sure why Quick Performance need the measurement but think best i get it up on a ramp and...

Hey All - I have ordered a new rear end from Quick Performance and they need a measurement that I don't have. I measured flange to flange and center to center of the leaf springs but they are requesting the measurement for the outside of drum brake to outside of the other drum. The car is a...

@plymouth67 - am not able to PM you on the Tuff wheel adapter - as your inbox is full. Can you contact me on direct message, I’d like to order one. Tom

Thanks. In your opinion, is there anything I really need to do or can I get by for a few months with the current set-up?

Incase useful, following message above - here’s the main build specs….. • 5.9 block Magnum 360 block from a 2001 Dodge Dakota o Bore and Stroke: 4.030 in. and 3.580 in. • Stock OE crankshaft externally balanced • Stock Rods with ARP Bolts • Speed-Pro Hypereutectic Pistons o...

Piggy backing in this thread and looking for some PRACTICAL ADVIVE - as don’t want to change many things for a couple of reasons outlined below. Nearly finished the build of my 360 Magnum - very nice build (I think, at least on paper :) - after lots of advice from FAO members) - will post specs...

Understood - it’s sad that some folks have no moral code. Putting trust in people is strength but when it’s broken it takes time to build that trust back up. I followed the threads, and how they went missing is pretty disgusting. Love this group and what it’s about - as I learn am sure to put...

Thanks for kind of putting new members like me in the ‘lowlifes’ bracket. Have some faith in people - we don’t all come on here to steal somebody’s template. New members probably share the same values as you and others on this group - we just came into Mopars later than you, and are still...

Great - I’ve stupidly purchased EngineQuest heads in Magnum intake pattern (too late to return) and really need to drill to the LA pattern. Can you help, happy to compensate? Feel free to DM if preferred.

Do you still have this or rent it out?

Hi there - do you still have this and offer the same offer? Am looking to drill my magnum heads to LA intake pattern.

Thanks but am building a mid performance street/autocross engine. Have heard good things about Morel.

Just wondering if you can help - do you know if these lifters will be suitable for a 360 Magnum engine build?

AC help needed!!…. The instructions with my AC universal hose and fittings kit are pretty basic - am wondering if anybody can answer these questions - i’m replacing the lines and fittings in my 1973 Scamp - as have added a new compressor. Questions: 1) do I need to keep or replace the...

I think throwing darts around that wanting EFI doesn’t make you a car guy is a bit harsh - that’s your opinion. From my side, I’m set on EFI for this project but for future builds that will not necessarily be the case. I drive this car on a 40 mile round trip to work, every day, including cold...

I’ve not got the factory EFI, would consider it an option. Not far off putting my shopping list together, where this group, as always, has helped enormously - will share in next few days.

Most of my daily drive is free flowing, interstate or around 45/50 mph. Does that help?

Has anybody got any first hand experience with the new castings - negative or positive?

I think your driving style and aims sounds aligned with my thinking!

This group has got the carb ticking through my mind, but the EFI for longevity and long miles still seems more stuck. I’ve heard the same on the heads - too much choice ! Am going to look up Charlie Servedio shortly - thank you for the tip!

This is great - and echos some of the direction I’ve seen online re the cam - think I with you there. Am using the majority of parts I have but only have the block, crank and piston rods, spider etc.

408 would definitely be something I’d love but how would it stack up for daily efficiency?

I’m still learning the joys of mechanics but I’m far from competent, beyond internet research and limited knowledge. I’m set on EFI, as the car really is a daily driver, I commute to work in her every day and just like the benefits of EFI, especially one that is self learning and managing.

The 727 will be replaced by a five speed Tremec (money dependent, most likely at the same time).

Yes - am starting with a bare block. Planning on keeping the crank shaft and connecting rods but rest is up for modification.

Apologies - probably all been shared before, but….. This topic has no doubt likely been covered many times before but am welcome of some ideas. I’ve a 360 Magnum engine out of a 2001 Dakota, it’s currently in the machine shop being prepared for me to start a rebuild. Am a novice builder and...
