    Biggest mistake ever- lunati cams

    Well 1st off, lunati tech support really sucks. 2hrs 45 minutes and got hung up on. My issue was my mistake tho. I ordered the voodoo cam/lifter and spring PKG. Cam # 10200703. Spring # 73195k which was fine and dandy for stock x head spring height however, I got the speed master heads bug from...

    Mopar performance alternator 1or 2 wire???

    Mancini has this alternator which states that it is 1 wire compatible but I have a later 2 wire external voltage regulator. The pic shows another terminal with a wire from inside it hooked up. IE a ground, I guess. Can I disconnect that wire and hook up the other wire? They are having a sale...

    Junk equiss gauges?

    Was out for a putt in the barracuda and noticed my oil psi was up past 80 and hitting the 90psi range at the end of my ride so it got me thinking why it was so high. Normally 65 to 75 psi range. So I just parked it becoming frustrated. Then today I went to assess the issue and noticed the gauge...

    I warned him! Lol.

    My son in law was playing with gun powder all day on the 4th. Trying to make a 1/4 stick, he couldn't get the big bang that he wanted. As the alcohol set in, he eventually gave up with the glue stick and poured a trail to a can with what was left. Then the warning came. I told him over and...

    What to use to clean this carb?

    I,ve had this holley 850 carb for a while and it has corroded from sitting and I do have a rebuild kit for it. I know there is a soaking solution that the lawn mower shops use to clean them. I thought about a dremmel and small wire wheel but it might score the casting. Anyone know what a good...

    Something different for valve covers.

    Mancini had these posted as new items from mopar. I haven't seen them before and grabbed a set for my new build. They have a wrinkle finish and raised height for clearance. Something different than the cast, ribbed style or M/T, stock steel etc. The t handle fasteners are old school and...

    Been a long time since I got to fire a 340 and bought up some old stock champion n9y plugs as that was my preference years ago. Appears they dont make them anymore.
