Scored! I picked these up at the local speed shop this morning for 150$! in the 2000s their main business was small block mopar circle track engine building for a team in Vegas. (before the class put too many restrictions on the mopars to slow them down) should be great on my little street motor :D

Other engine and transmission let go at the same time. not ready to pay for a new trans and engine yet. I already have the 318 and crank with bearings. as well as rods. I have to build what I have to get it back going before summers over because I want to cruise with my buddies. if time and...

Yeah spending 1400 on a roller setup wasn't really In the cards for this engine. (if everyone agreed that it was a horrible cam choice then I would've bit the bullet) Even with my 9.1:1 current compression ratio and 2.76 rear gear it seems like the car still gets up and goes pretty well. It'll...

yeah; from what's been suggested here and with the lifters Rusty suggested I think I'll stick with my cam and opt out of the crossover tube. Side note: I got my crank installed after adjusting main clearances. and it takes less than one pound torque to rotate if over. :D

Well the trans went out on the way home from a buddies house last Sunday and at the same time the current engine started huffing a considerable amount of oil out of the exhaust and breathers. then my intake bolts pulled the threads out of the heads. all In one day. so Im building the engine I...

What would make this cam peak at 5600? I am pretty green when It comes to camshaft tuning and specs. I was going off of the ISKY website when I ordered it because I was under the impression that a longer duration and tighter lobe separation favored higher RPM. Isky says the range for this cam is...

Go to tractor supply. they get the good oil based solvent from out of state. HOWEVER you have to catch it. it doesnt come in regularly and it gets bought FAST. keep an eye out though because it is good **** or just get super clean at the parts store and do a 70-30 mix with hot water. works just...

For a trunk mount battery on a big block I like using 2/0 welding cable and a 250AMP resettable circuit breaker. This one is in a 72 chevelle with a 468 BBC. That battery is pretty good too. Full throttle Batteries.

Right now I am putting together a pretty hot street 318 as the one in the car now has started huffing a considerable amount of oil out the exhaust and the breathers. The combination is going to be: 1969 318 Cast Crank 10-10 (ARP Main Bolts) 340 rods (shot peened, corners rounded, ARP bolts)...

it's not often california and Pennsylvania switch weather:lol: it's cold and windy over here

start pulling fuses until that 20 amp fuse stops blowing. but i'm pretty sure that wire is main power that goes through the ammeter to fusebox? im sure @Mattax will correct me and provide more insight into possible issues

I just got Gutiarjones oiling mods done and I measured the crank mains today

WELLLLLLLLLLLLL... shortly after this picture (after the coffee cruise with my buddies) I was doing some donuts in the dirt and crunched the passenger quarter in a pole. We went back to my buddies house and kicked most of it out and I got the scratches out with a buffer. (it looks almost...

I got 5-10 plus. I hang out and build **** with three of them; two are my coworkers; and the others are older guys who are building or built their "last" ones. This is the main group, (apart from the two nissans) there is a pit bike behind the nissan that is the other main friend. The...

last Sunday was the only good day in the past month. finally took the duster to the local coffee and cruise. (now needs a quarter panel and drivetrain) but its looking like we might be out of the rain for the most part (hopefully)

yeah its been weird the whole month. weekdays have been BEAUTIFUL! 75-80 degrees consistently. then Friday afternoon it all goes to ****.

no, surprisingly. it spit on the windshield on the way home from the shop but it was 70 ish most of the day. windy but that's just a given.

they're ugly all right; there's three of those up in the desert already.

Good afternoon

yeah I have to stop myself from buying the die casts off the matco truck :lol:

Finally got done with 9 HOURS of schoolwork and while I was sitting here I looked over on my desk and found the Jets I was looking for. Hopefully it will like the 67s instead of the 72s in partial throttle cruise

The annoying part is; The 318 came with the correct motor mounts and I stored them away for this exact scenario. but one just walked away :lol: not surprised; usually happens. Ill find it when I buy a new one

but that's probably why its so fun. fast but scary for a reason

Yeah that's only half the sketchy **** on it. But now that I have a little more knowledge and a higher standard for what I do. (and 60-hour week pay helps do things "correctly") The next things are the crossmember and getting the correct passenger side motor mount. (engine lists about 15%) then...

No way in hell I'm going to take that thing over 120 with the 9 inch drums and original lower balljoints. Not to mention the hose clamps holding the tail housing to the trans crossmember

Hell, it snowed up here; We only got rain but hesperia and oak hills were getting it pretty heavy. It rained so much that when I took the duster out yesterday the headers were underwater going through 90% of the puddles :lol: Sounded like a boat

Well, I got a new truck finally; which was its own adventure. Its a 1993 D-250 Cummins. One owner and is IMMPECCABLE. The old man who owned it definitely hopped it up some but I don't know the extent of the modifications yet. The duster is in limbo right now, Not much free flowing cash since I...

Man. Its been a busy couple months. My first free minute since almost christmas :lol:

The evolution of my engine bay since the v8. and a bonus sema engine bay
