    Cooling system pressure

    Yeah a good recovery system would be a good idea a $46 a gallon. I just like the idea of no water, no corrosion. Thanks for your input!

    Stamped steel rockers

    Not sure of the brand, they look like more of a dampener spring on the inside, they were on the heads when I bought them, my machinist thinks they are aftermarket, not stock 340 springs, he checked em, as well as checking seat pressure. They may be direct replacement for the factory springs...

    Part 3 newbie

    That's great! Its very rewarding to take something that has been neglected and bring it back to life, and she will be driving a cool car, I started on a 69 340 dart 15 months ago and found that most of the parts I needed were fairly easy to find, although not cheap.

    Pulley on Harmonic balancer not flush with fan pulley

    You have the timing gear on correctly and the oil slinger? If it lined up before, it should now unless you changed something or the dampener is not really all the way on.

    Pulley on Harmonic balancer not flush with fan pulley

    If it's worth doing, it's worth doing right, grab a friend and a flywheel holding tool and torque it to spec. They have torque specs for a reason. Is it too far out or too far in?

    Connecting rod, this one forged or not?

    All right got home pulled the rod and piston, it does have the correct part number, it does not stand out as clear as the other rods but shining a flashlight at it from an angle I could see the numbers.

    Connecting rod, this one forged or not?
