Guys, I have a frustrating problem with my fuel system.. and before I start ripping stuff apart and/ or throwing new parts at it, I would be gratefull for some advice... Here's the deal, I have a megasquirt EFI system fed from a high pressure pump, which is in turn fed from a the mechanical...

When I start my engine, it makes an occasional "Klakk-klakk" noise. it is not regular, it is the sort of noise you would expect if a part of the engine was hitting something from low RPM shuddering/ vibration. With a little bit rev and when the engine is warm, this seams to disappear. There...

Hi! I have a mildly tuned 318 in my car, an old one which has probably never been rebuildt. Its probably well worn, something I suspect from how the oil pressure behaves. I run 20-50 oil, and when starting from cold, the oil pressure is great with arround 25 psi on idle and up to 70...

OK, bit of a strange heading there.. let me expand. I'm running a megasquirt EFI on my mild 318, works a treat. But after installing electric fans, average underhood temperature has incresed (fan not running all the time), and on hot days I get issues with fuel boiling in the rails as I only...

Reading through some of the posts here on carb tuning, I recognize a lot of issues I've had my self with regards to tuning carbs, be it for improved performance and response , or simply trying to sort out problems like bad idle, flat-spots, bogging etc.. For the amateur, like my self, the...

Just thought I'd share some recent experience here.. I'm running a Megasquirt EFI system on the 318 in my '71 Dart, whic I'm now in the process of re-tuning after improving the cooling with a new rad and electric fans and ugrade from narrow-band to wide-band Lambda sensor. After driving...

Just finished putting in a Performance cooling 4-row 22" rad in my '71 Dart, and figured I'd post some pics an info for the benefir of others considering this radiator or simmilar.. Bought the radiator on e-bay for about 280$, which I think was really good value for money. The radiator fit...

Has anybody tried Bilstein shocks on their Dart/ A-body? Mine has a set of "cheap" Gabriel shocks that I bought many years ago as an emergency replacement for the completely dead shocks that came on the car when I bought it. Now that I have replaced all bushings and links in the front...

Hi guys! I'm in the process of considering future long-term options for my '71 dart, and one possible avenue of pursuit is of course dropping in a new HEMI. As my car is a daily (summer) driver and street car, power steering is a must. Now, after reading arround a bit, I've gathered...

Hello good folk of the A-body Forum! :icon_smi: I have a '71 Dart swinger GT with stock 14 x 5,5 rims and 195/75 tires. I love the look of the '71 dog-dish caps, but would like something a bit more beefy, both for looks and handling.... Now here's my idea.. In order to retain the...

OK guys, here is one for those with detail knowledge and experience... I have a 318 with a DIY fuel injection system (Megasquirt) My current intake is a 2bbl 360 intake which i have modified with thrrottle body and injector bungs. Looking at the "beer keg" style MPI manifold of the Magnum...

Hi guys! I have a '71 318 engine in to which i plan to install a new cam and 1.6 ratio lifters. The max lift @ the exhaust valve will be around .450". Is this cool with the standard flat top 8,75 com pistons, or is there a risk of clearance issues here? Looking forward to any answers! :)
