    Anyone know anything about large sector steering boxes/pitman arms?

    All you have to do is get a 73 B body pitman arm and bolt it on. The link end is the same as 72 back. Been there done that.

    Fuel Fluke

    If your running a holley the floats will get sticky and flood the car out. Also all electric pumps need a regulator. Vapor lock is when vapor blocks fuel flow and you don't get any fuel. What you had is called flooded. My 73 Charger sits a lot and God only knows how maney times its happened to...

    Not Getting 12 Volts at Coil

    Ya anouther cam story

    The problem most people have with 318's is not over camming but over heading. It just don't have enough bore to create the valosity <spelling] to fill those big ports and the cylinders with air. Compared to a 318 head the ports and chambers in 340 and 360 heads are huge. There is no such thing...

    '302' Combustion chamber volume?

    The small ports of the 302 is what makes it work so good on a 318. And cam overlap increases time to full cylinder pressure.

    '302' Combustion chamber volume?

    I've only been doing mopars for 48 years. But for a small block I prefer Badger pistons along with the SCAT I beam rods. With iron heads it's not a good idea to go over 10:0:1 compression because of pinging witch will kill an engine. 302's shaved 50 with a steel shim gasket and a 9:5:1 piston...

    8 1/4 will it hold up?

    In 1990, My son and I put a 450 horse 440 and a 4 speed in his 1972 Charger SE, and we put an auburn gear sure gripe with 3:55:1 gears in the 8 1/4 that was in the car. That was over half a million miles ago. It's all tired now but all that 8 1/4 has needed in all this time is 1 pinon seal. He...
