    /6 to 360 swap

    I am doing just that once again on my 68 Barracuda. I have converted many a 6 banger to an 8. Even my S10 Blazer I installed a 350 in it. What kind of car we talking about here? The first thing on a 6 cyl, is the K-frame change, You can buy adapter mounts, but the best way is to find an 8 cyl...

    what kind of oil for new rebuild

    You right about the magents. This is a crank trigger ignition system. Note that there are 4 magnets. Half of 8. This sends a pulse signal the the MSD unit which in turn fires the coil. You can see the pickup to the right. See that big blue nut? That how you set the air gap.

    what kind of oil for new rebuild

    Thanks Terry. The lines are on both sides and is for better cooling as the block is half filled with a concrete type of mix . This strengthens the cylinders and helps reduce harmonic resonance. You will note that the line goes into a raised T-stat housing, this is a system that helps auto bleed...

    running like crap

    I agree with chuck. Gear will not hurt your drivabily like that. It does sound like you engine is starving for fuel. Check your fuel lines even fuel filter. You mau have jarred some crap in the gas tank up. Check fuel pressure to make sure it is nto dropping to zero.

    what kind of oil for new rebuild

    Not to start an additive war. You do not need additives. Good non synthetic oil already has all you need. Allot of additives create aeration. Air in oil is bad umm kay. As far as flat tappet statement, you are out in left field. The only additive you need for a flat tappet cam is the molly...

    Coolio. Yea I would advance the accelerator pump one notch. Check the pump clearance as well. You can check it witht he car not running as well. Look down the carb, give it just the slightest tweak in the throttle arm. you should see instant fuel shot, If not adjust it. Since you have a decent...

    My Engine is almost ready

    I finaly figured out how to show a video. I think, let me know if it worked. The car was slow becaues it was 90% humidity and about 98 degrees. Just dialing the carb in. Was a little lean. I am in the close lane. Also listen to the launch of tuned carb.
