    340 Build

    It appears the sbm and bbm , rear crank flange bolt patterns are identical. Anyone have a Pioneer part # for sbm, flywheel ring gear ? I'm making an aluminum flywheel with Fidanza steel insert. Thanks, ateam.

    340 Build

    >> 48mm IDF's are rated at 340cfm, with std. chokes. I suspect supplied ones, are somewhere in the middle ? Flowed at 1.5 or 3" of water ? Lot of gear means 4:10's out back, 3.25,1.955,1.31,1.0 and .753 for 5th. I turn 67' today, and even with all of the fairly low budget compromises, this...

    I can lighten the pistons,( my shop). I'm considering Lunati Voodoo cam/lifters, 1,800-6,400 rpm range. Light car, lot's of gearing, 26" tire and long tube 1 5/8" primaries w. 3" collector headers. X pipe, if it will fit. I'm also considering a pair of 48mm Webber IDF's, on the 4bbl manifold...

    360 has a low cyl

    And if #5 intake lobe on cam, went really flat, might be a cause for 90 psi ? ateam

    340 Build

    Well, the car is a Jensen Healey roadster, aka "Jensen Jackal". Jensen designed the car to take a small block V8, but then the oil embargo hit, circa 1975 ? I'm building this car as, what might have happened. They used Chrysler/Europe components frequently, as in Jensen Interceptor/ etc. I...

    340 Build

    To be bored + .060", yeah I know. Eddy heads, #60779, with mild port work. I have a Magnum Performer RPM intake. Can this be machined for the LA bolt angle ? Speed Pro forged/heavy pistons. K1 H-beam rods, std. length. Forged 318 crank. Considering Eddy's Performer RPM cam,(package design). They...

    540", QuickTime/4L80E by Hughes

    >> According to the SMR,(convertors) webbsite, A518= 170 lbs dry/no convertor. $l80E = 187 lbs, dry/no convertor and 727 with GV. is 195.55 lbs. Fast 01, thanks for the pic's and info.:burnout: flyingwedge.

    540", QuickTime/4L80E by Hughes

    >> How does a 727 and a GV, has less drag than a 4L80E ? Cost of a GV is ? I must consider bang for buck, which is why I chose the 4L80E. It is considerably lighter than the A518, and will fit easier. Cheers, flyingwedge.:coffee2:

    540", QuickTime/4L80E by Hughes

    >> I wasn't able to find a 48RE core. Martin Saine wants $4,600+ my core. Yes, I'm shure it would be a quality build. Speaking only for me, too much $'s and too much tunnel work. I like the power flow of TH400/4L80E's. Unknowm-yet, as a 5-6 speed. Cheers, flyingwedge.

    540", QuickTime/4L80E by Hughes

    >. I have been informed by JM and trans builders, the 4L80E pump face must be machined flat/parallel, for effective mounting/sealing. I'm prepared to do this. For better up-shifts, I like the design that "releases" frictionals, rater than applying. Some say this is an advantage of the TH400 and...

    440 motorhome engine

    My understanding is, all the cast 440 cranks were external balanced, because the throws were heavier/cast. "Maybe" the exhaust valves have positive rotators ? 360 motorhomes did. Good Luck, ateam.

    5.7 / 6.1 location preference?

    >> According to PHR eng. swap book and Bouchillion,(they sell) you need 1/8" spacer between hemi/trans. This because flange is 1/8 further-back than sbm's. :oops:

    Stock rods, better bolts, how much hp ?

    I had ARP 2000 bolts insalled in a 5.7 and 6.1 set of rods. You almost need a magnifying glass to find the part lines. I suspect these powdered rods will also respond to carefull deburring and shot peening. Manley is only supplier of rods to fit the .984 pin/bummer. Onward, ateam.:wack:

    Stock rods, better bolts, how much hp ?

    These powdered metal rods "look" shot peened, from the factory, I doubt they are. Seems like these would favor removing sharp edges, polishing and shot peening ? ARP 2000 bolts go in without need of resizing rods, by benefit of fractured caps. Discussion ? Thanks, ateam.:coffee2:

    Project 6-71 340 Demon

    It looks like the allen heads are very close to cap/wires ? Possibly substitute button heads or flush head torx ? As an alternative to the $800 offset distributor, if using a remote electric water pump, you might consider driving a shortbody dist. with a crab cap, off the end of the cam ...

    5.7 Hemi injected or carbed or 383 carbed?

    Or you could consider MegaSquirt III, for fuel and spark control. I hope to find out soon, how good the Eddy dual quad/plane manifold is, with (2) two barrel tbi's on it-work. This manifold should produce a more street friendly torque curve, vs the Indy Mod single plane. Time will tell. Good...

    Comanche Heads ?

    I just recieved a set. Dealer says they're "new", heads says "Remanufactured", WTF/wheres the fun ? Either way, you get to pay $150 ea., pita core charge. Reportedly, these flow 352 cfm @ .6" int.,stone stock. What needs help is the exhaust side. Valves are big, 2.140/1.655". Anyone worked on...

    6.1L hemi with 8-71 on methanol

    The GMC blower is about the least efficient, of the rootes types. This is made worse at 7,000 ft. corrected altitude. The only thing helping this set up, is some cooling effect from the methanol. No sense boosting the motor, more than it needs to do the job. If (2) new drivers can go 200, with...
