Love the look of cragers up front with the black steels.

Anyone using a Holley Street Dominator single plain intake...it has the smaller 318 size ports also....Thinking of using it .... Using a holley performer intake now and wondering if the car will pick up with the this low profile single plain intake. stock 1968 318 .225 @ 50 cam..... .453 lift...

A 750 Proform will work great and is one of the cheapest carbs on that dyno chart and was ahead of the game up to 3400 rpm...The bigger the carb the more power you can make but where in the power band is important to the kind of driving of the vehicle and whats most important to the owner. I...

I ordered a brand new 2000 Dakota with a 4.7 and 3.91 gears. Drag raced it for three years strait and sold it with 43 thousand miles on it. Ran low 15 teens with drag radials.I changed the oil all the time and never had a problem. I have heard of problems with them though. Last new vehicle i...

:happy1:....................All engines make power -- but how you use the power you have --- is everything. Many cars with less powerful engines are beating cars with more powerful engines. The power to the rear tires and the weight of the car is all that matters ----outside of traction.

A buddy of mine runs a 318 in his scamp that has run a best of 10.82 @ 123. Numbers matching block-crank-rods....cast crank.11.8 compression. 5000 grand convertor with trans brake. 2850 weight without driver. Victor intake ported by Hughes. .557 purple shaft solid. 308 casting heads---ported...

Thanks for the info fishy68......

I just finished building my 904 in my 67 Cuda. I worked Saturday 10 to 12 midnight. Sunday 10 to 10. Monday 8 to 3. The 904 works really good .....but will be taking it back out for a couple of reasons. I want to tighten up the clutch packs a little more. I set the rear...

Band adjustment......1 1/2 turns backed off on bolt adjuster. Holding 10 inch pounds on adjuster bolt bolt -- tightened or finger tight-- then tighten lock nut,--Front band **kick down band. Out side case--drivers side Low gear +++ reverse band. 2 turns loose after tight. Inside case under...

It's the power valve. The carb is your whole problem. Run 71/81 jets with the rear power valve blocked off. timing at 38 total.......unhook your vacuum advance. If you have to turn the idle screws out more then a turn and a half then the idle circuit is to lean------a common problem with a...

Sounds like the perfect set up. If it stalled at 4000 grand before it will stall at a higher rpm now. The cam is a high rpm runner....I don't really see any problems. I think it all depends on how good the porting was....408's need air.

400...........It's the big block with a reputation ---worse then the 318. No respect lol........I think they are one of the best engines ever made. Strongest block....largest bore....whats not to like. I can't wait to start mine up when it's done. 5000 grand convertor/.557 cam/victor...

LOL.....I just read the rest of this post. Just trying to help ya...all is cool....or hot ...i mean....lol I think what IQ52 posted is very interesting.... I would love to see more information on the subject of aluminum vrs steel and the way heat works in a engine using different materials...

RustyRatRod, Compression is heat. You can run aluminum heads at a higher compression ratio and have the same -heat in the cylinder -as a lower compression steel headed engine because steel retains heat more then aluminum. The compression ratio is what it is. How much...

I am liking the results.....small cam for that range of power ...great job. The heads are working for ya........:burnout: ********** 340 BURNOUT *********

Your engine with aluminum heads should not ping with a 509. Did you give any thought to a better carb. I responded to you in the other post.... 10.7 with aluminum is like 9.7 with a steel head. I run 9.5 comp.with a steel head and the smaller .484 purple cam and can run 89 pump gas. If it...

I just bought a two row---1 inch tube American Eagle. I works ok......I said it would cool 600 horse....I don't think so. I need more Test driving to be sure.......I am in the middle of rebuilding my 904. It looks good and was built good......The cooling fins dent easy though...

The secondary's might not be coming in soon enough and it's leaning out. I would run at least a 950 cfm carb with mechanical secondary's. A race carb with no choke for sure.--better fuel curve-- A race fuel curve is richer over all. If your running a duel plain intake i would get a 1050 cfm...

What carb....???? Sounds to me like it might be running lean.

What motor??????????cube/cam/intake/carb.

All things being the same in a cam grind, except the Lobe Separation Angle itself.......... a 108-LSA will close the intake valve sooner then a 110 -LSA .....for example. If you wanted to run a cam with a given duration that compliments your compression and or the type of fuel you wanted to...

Convertor...........needs at least 4500 stall. 340'S run better with gear and stall. 12 seconds on juice....13 seconds on motor. With convertor....12 seconds on motor and high 11 seconds on juice. That's a really big tire for 3.91's. I believe it's a 30 inch tall tire. That's like running a...

WHATS THE BEST SOURCE OF --ALL REBUILD INFORMATION-- ON THE 904 TRANSMISSION.----CLEARANCES AND TOOLS NEEDED. THANKS FOR ALL INFO.............:thumrigh:

$220.00 led foot racing shipped. You can find this model cheaper but i went with a long time running company so if i had a problem in the future with a warranty issue. I just installed a American Eagle radiator ment for a 67 383 big block Barracuda. It works great..................you just have...

Anybody.................:roll:

Any thoughts would be appreciated............ok. If you can here it run and it runs good and you see no smoke then....... Check the bearings on one rod and one main bearing, if they look good run it. Buy a good cam with a set of performance valve springs,intake,carb and a mopar performance...

340................. Here's the cam card. It says it has 302 advertized.

I found out what the clunking was-----front u joint. I think so to rumble..... True oldmanrick-----I think some big torque engines are shifted closer to the peak power band or in a light car with big cubes.

It's a 108 lobe separation angle.(lsa) I just installed the new radiator and it cooled off some. Next will be 60 foot times.......26 inch tall mickeys.(more gear and bite) I am waiting for a new spicer u joint.........napa. I have learned that most engines like to be shifted at least-- 500 rpm...

What does everyone think the best temp is ---for the best ET.:burnout:
