    Timing Chain Cover crankshaft opening is the wrong size

    I have Power steering, and power breaks with factory front disk breaks. Timing is a bit challenging its like threading a needle but I never thought anything of it I just thought it was an odd Mopar setup. I appreciate the feedback I now know the mixed configuration half 68 half 73. I'll be...

    Timing Chain Cover crankshaft opening is the wrong size

    Ive used a timing light to set my distributor until now I never realized the timing cover was changed from passenger side to drivers side timing. (it was done before I bought it and Ive owned it for almost 30 years) If I changed the water pump to a passenger side outlet the radiator would not...

    Timing Chain Cover crankshaft opening is the wrong size

    Thanks, so I just need to order a seal from a 68-70 and it will fit the new one great ! the water pump is the original 68 style cast with the main inlet on the drivers side (Pre 1970) Are 318 harmonic balancers with the timing alignment on the left interchangeable or are there specific years...

    I saw the seal but even if I take it out the opening is still smaller than the new timing cover

    Timing Chain Cover crankshaft opening is the wrong size

    This is the backside of the harmonic balancer, is the cap ring attached to it going to interfere with the crankshaft seal for the new timing chain cover, just trying to cover all the steps.

    Timing Chain Cover crankshaft opening is the wrong size

    I bought a new timing chain cover and I thought I had the right one as the timing marks lined up on the drivers side but as it turns out the new opening for the crank shaft is larger than the original, will it still work ? or am I better off getting another one that is the same size opening as...

    Edlebrock 9266 manifold gasket won't fit stock LA 340 intake

    So far I think the 2696 adapter is the solution for this issue, not sure if there are others out there. It adds a .86 height to the carb but I think it will still fit under the hood

    I wanted to use the AVS 2 carb and the factory manifold so I have to figure out the correct adapter. I did a lot of research in preparation but this didn't come up. I appreciate all the input from the forum.

    Edlebrock 9266 manifold gasket won't fit stock LA 340 intake

    I picked up a Edlebrock rubber 9266 intake gasket to ensure I don't have heat issues between the AVS 2 carb and my stock 73 340 intake manifold. The wider spaced gasket holes are made for the edlebrock performer intake but there is room to punch new holes to line up with the narrower factory...

    Leaf spring urethane bushing install on 68 dart

    when installing the new urethane bushing do I need to remove the metal ring? I don't think it would fit if I leave it in place. I remove the original rubber bushing already. And thoughts on this is appreciated.

    looking for intake carb / manifold recommendations for 318 1973 La block

    I started researching on everyone's comments and in a quarter mile the stock was 2/10th faster even with the exrea weight, over a performer. I get it depends a lot on the setup inside the engine but if the two are that close i'll keep with the stock. I like the Lokar cable setup, it looks neat...
