I tried with my trusty old 20lbs sledge to the drums but it didnt work to well

well I tried the Universal Hub puller and it stripped the Lug studs on the drums and I broke my ange grinder the other day, but since I narrowing it anyway, cant I just cut (Plasma cut) where the housing flanges are welded on and hope the axles will pull out of the third member?

well we just measure our reeds in inches of water, but yes humidity is bad for GHpipes, its not girgling that you hear its really bad out of tune notes. but I am stuck on the axle now the drums dont want to come off the axles and that means I cant get the tappered axles out so I think Im gonna...

Dont really want to go off topic but why do the reeds for by Great highland bagpipes are rated in inches of water rather than PSI? the mesurment used is a the discretion of the person doing the measuring, yes liquids are not compressable and gasses are but My example still stands.

I know Rock auto is not the best place to look for parts , But shouldnt they atleast know which Case came in which car? they listed the axle as being a 742 case but when I pulled it out it is a 741, I say thats bad knowlede on their side of telling me that all 63 Chrysler newport have a 742 case...

Boost is actually Relative to the Compression ratio and how much heated air is produce and circlated through a Turbo at 9 to 1 CR with 12psi boost you get a effected CR of 16.06 to 1 and the restiction of the intake manifold is only amplified with the more you push through, the only restriction...

Did I ever say I was going to put boost on my 361? I did not my original post was asking if the 741 case can handle the 400-425 HP that the 361 will produce after a overbore of .060 to bring the engine to 372ci for "hot street" use

And the carburator I am using can't handle the Turbo I have on the shelf

But I'm not adding a turbo I'm giving an example of an archain idea of "there's no replacement for displacement"

Coming man you do know that the compression ratio of a motor decides the percentage per pound of boost, or are you still stuck in the 60' and 70's, a turbo or superchargers amount of added horse power is determined by how much PSI is added to a giving compression ratio, if a 9 to 1 C:R engine...

And with low compression pistons at 9 to 1 compression ratio for the original low compression 361 at 265 horsepower if I run a turbo giving 12 lb of boost that would be 760 something horsepower so the replacement for displacement is a turbo or a supercharger

Plus you can't beat forged crank an rods over cast of a 440

We'll find out. Plus as I recall Chrysler built a 2.2 l that produced 440 horsepower and 440 lb of torque and it was only a 2.2 l

The machine shop I went to is only charging me $250 for The bar over new freeze plugs and full cleaning

As I recall there was a thread on how to make a ball and trunion into a slip yoke.

Machine shop I went to was $250 for a cleaning new freeze plugs and the bore over

rebuilders choice has them in stock an readily available.

Yeah got the console shifter out of a 65 b body with cable shift

Going with bbp disc all around

Yeah Dr diff A body axles so I can get rid of the awfull tapered factory 63 axles

OK I bought a Complete 1963 Chrysler Newport with an 8&3/4 Axle, a 361 (B) big block(Im boring 60 over for 372 Cubic inches) I went 60 over at the suggestion of the machine shop( engine has just over 3/8" cylinder wall thickness), and a 727 matching the engine, now I went to rock auto to se what...

I know this is an old post....... I just found it and was goingto add that the late 80's Dakota with the 2.2L in them had a 5spd option and there is your bell housing and do a Hybrid 2.2/2.5 DOHC " K engine with Neon DOHC and external oil lines to and from the head, "water jackets line up" and...

Coil overs don't give ride comfort and have way to much body roll for my taste, any one notice a Pattern "TBS's are for utility not racing" I have a friend who has an all original Maserati Merak SS 73' model year and is a real sports car and.........No torsion bar suspension . even Wikipedia...

I mean I don't want my B'Cuda to ride like a 4x4 off road truck ya know.

If its not a spring type device used to keep the front end up, where is the spring to do so? To me it acts as a"spring" to lift the front of a vehicle . Certainly its not a anti sway bar, and yes I want my B'Cuda to ride a little lower, its also for a comfort ride. I can't run shockwaves on the...

I am basically wanting to replace the T-bars with air springs and an anti rollbar

correct me if Im wrong the torsion bar is just a different style "Spring" right, and as I remember torsion bar suspensions are only adequate for pickup trucks and not for road racing and euro cars dumped them only a few years after 1st using them.

Hey Knowledgeable folks I am wondering if I can take out the Torsion Bars on my 67 fastback B'Cuda and leave them out, I am changing over to air ride as the torsion bars will be obsolete, I am wondering if the lower control arm will stay in place with the absence of the torsion bar. or...

I will check the conrods to pistons this weekend, the original owner said it started "knocking" about a week after the intake manifold gasket was repaired from a coolant leak.

Well my only problem is they took the motor out of the car it only has 4000 miles on the rebuild and the person I bought it from said it was knocking and the shop pulled it out with out doing a diagnosis of the problem so I am going through all the possibilities of the culprit but have not found...
