I really did not to hear that Damn I had to cut the rear window out.

Need to locate a rear window gasket for a 66 Valiant 2 door post car

Absolutely the best improvement for my 5.7. It was built in 2007 when no parts were available and I chose to put a carb on it. This engine does not like a carb, driveability issues were always a problem. The Atomic has been fantastic on it. Definitely put it with the return line and a quality...

you cant just swap the lifters. the lifter plastic retainer that keeps the lifters in place and from rotating has different size hole for the mds lifters. Get the retainers from a 04/05 pickup, these years had no mds on the 5.7, also get the mds solenoid plugs from the same. But really no...

MSD 6013 Hemi 6 controller is the one I went with on mine. Easy set up and runs like a top.

This is a definate. I have one of the first Hemi swaps to be done. Yes purchase the TTI mounts, they are worth the money. They will position the engine in the bay properly. You can use a 727, but to get the transmission mount to bolt in you will have to flatten the body to firewall seam. When...

nice work, Mine came out fantastic. I'm very glad I did it.

fuel may be boiling in the bowls. You may have to block the heat risers from the heads to the intake manifold. Mine did a similar thing till I plugged those. Good luck.

I also am just about done with mine. MSD Ignition and a carb. Sweet deal, I should be ready to turn the key this week end. '68 Fastback, 5.7, 727, 8 3/4.

I'm putting a 5.7 in a Barracuda. What I need is some input of how to feed it. Going to a fuel cell is out of the question, and I would prefer not to sump the original tank. My dart has the tank sumped and I dont want to see that under the Barracuda. Electric pump is the only solution, so where...

Wasn't quite sure I liked the sub-lime Hemi at first, but the more I looked the more I liked. Sure wish I had a stand for my car like that on. Sure would make it easier to do some of the repairs. Thanks for the post. Let's keep the Hemi alive.

I'm not trying to justify doing this swap, it will just be cool as hell. I already have a Dart Sport with a 360. It runs 12.70's all day, and I could drive it to the track. Sometimes in the midlife a fellow just needs a good challenge. As for the piston design, they are all slight dome pistons.

What does the exhaust smell like? Coolant when it burns has a very sweet very different smell. Oil smoke has its own, easy to identify. You have condensation in the system. It is a byproduct of the combustion. Your exhaust system is not evaporating it, so it comes out the tailpipe. Leave it alone.

It takes a three jaw puller to get the balancer off. A strong but small one. Most modern engines have this style, it is one less process to put a piece thru if you don't drill the holes. There are indents for the puller legs on the inner hub. And yes that motor took on some water. Check the...

dodgenut, find out if that block is good. That motor more than likely swallowed some water. Flood or deep water maybe. This is where I got my motor. I have the pistons and rods your gonna need, took them out of another motor to build mine. Get back with me if you need em.

The motor that 408duster is relating to has .046 thou. piston to head clearance. It is real close to 9.72 to 1. Motor is lumpy, but it is not shaking the car. Idles well at 800 with the ac on. Kicks along at about 3600 on the highway, sings like a bird. 35 degrees of total timing, around 17 at...

Update on the mini Hemi. I got to watch and listen to it run on the dyno today. 368 horses at 5600, 345 ft lbs from 3500 to 5500. This with 25 degrees of total timing. They are tweeking the ignition box, it will be a week or two before the final prototype is put on the motor. It is lap top...

I also had a converter built to my combination, absolutely on the money. Well worth every penny. Frank knows what he is doing.

the tti headers are pricey rascals. And rumor is they are in a backorder status for right now. The manifolds are about all the budget I have for now. This is a very tight fit in an A-body. I had to notch the K member to get the Magnum oil pan to fit. Also had to cut and flatten the firewall to...

by the way how is Agent 1320?

doing very well, thanks. Just thought I would put some ideas out there and see what good ideas come back. See ya later.

Anyone else out there putting a 5.7 in? I would surely like to trade ideas and thoughts before making costly mistakes. Mine is carburated, for now. It is easier and better for bracket racing. MSD is making a stand alone ignition system right now, my motor is their mock-up for the dyno. My...

anyone know where to get repair panels for a 71 Roadrunner? I need patch panels for both rear quarters.

no problems with the 5.7 hemi to date at our dealership either. It is a tough motor. condensation on the cap and top of the dipstick is normal. Don't let anyone work on it if it ain't broken. Just my thought.
