    273 rockers on 340 with hydraulic cam

    Probably someone was too cheap to buy new pushrods to use those rockers with hydraulic lifters, which are taller than solids. Spacing up the shafts gave enough clearance to run hydro's with the solid lifter pushrods. Seen this before...actually works, but not correct.

    WANTED: 1or 2 Crane adjustable rocker screws

    Anyone have 1 or 2 Crane adjustable rocker screws that fit stock cast-iron Mopar rockers? …believe it or not, one snapped on me! Heard a tick under the hood, pulled a valve cover, found the loose screw, attenpted to tighten it, and the screw snapped off in the wrench!

    The Saga of a Small Block Fan Shroud

    I was just saying that the sales listing for the 68/69 shroud also fits the 67 rad. I use a clutch fan setup with mine…

    LD4B installation on a 75 318

    Lucky for me, when I changed from 2bbl to correct 4bbl intake and carb on my ‘67 273, I found the correct throttle cable bracket, and that allowed me to use the 2bbl throttle cable. I guess for '67 they are the same?

    Whiplash cam in Canada?

    My friend's not interested in buying new pistons as we've already assembled the short block using stock replacement ones. He wants the nice lope without having to run higher comp. pistons (and the higher octane...read; more expensive...gas). I don't know that much about Hughes cams which is why...

    Whiplash cam in Canada?

    I don't know...that's why I'm asking. Dave recommends his “performance” lifters, but, of course, they’re out of stock. We got the payment issue worked out. He must be pretty busy these days as it takes days, sometimes a week, for him to answer an email. So, who's actually run one of these in...

    Whiplash cam in Canada?

    I have a brand new, in the box set...just wondering if we can use them on these cams.?

    Whiplash cam in Canada?

    Ok...we've resolved the payment and shipping issues. Now we need to talk to someone who actually has one of these cams in their 360 engine. Can we run standard hyd. flat tappets on this cam? Dave recommended their HP ones (faster bleed down), which I assume are similar to a Rhodes , but they're...

    The Saga of a Small Block Fan Shroud

    The 312 shroud may be scarce, but the reproduction one from The Mopar Shop that says 68-69 A body applications fits the 67 rad perfectly.

    Whiplash cam in Canada?

    AJ… I appreciate your point of view. I’m asking all this for my friend as he’s already assembled the short block and would like to avoid spending for another set of pistons and complete adjustable valve train.

    Heres the cam card… Can a custom grinder make one from this….?…

    Whiplash cam in Canada?

    Thanks KK. I also want to know if I have to run their "Hi-Performance" lifters, (which are out-of-stock anyway) or can I run any standard hydraulic flat tappet lifters with this cam? Are non-stock pushrods req'd....adjustable rockers...etc...etc...!

    Whiplash cam in Canada?

    None of those handle Hughes cams either.

    Whiplash cam in Canada?

    Here’s a quote from Dave…”Your credit card must have a U.S. bank.” I deal with TD, which IS in the US. He hasn’t responded back to that yet. “Our dealers in Canada are listed on our website under Dealer Locator.” They’re Canadian dealer list is out of date. The places he lists are either out...

    Whiplash cam in Canada?

    I could do that. I also have other questions about the cams that Dave’s too busy to answer, apparently….thats one reason why I’d like to talk to someone that owns one up here.

    Whiplash cam in Canada?

    Neither handles Hughes cams

    Whiplash cam in Canada?

    Anyone in Canada running a Whiplash cam? Where’d you buy it? Their Canadian dealer list is woefully out of date. They wont sell one to Canada unless you have a credit card from a US bank, which, from Canada, I cant get. Also, have a few more questions to ask a Whiplash cam owner.

    Calling expert engine builders.....'77 360 build

    Ok, what can I recommend to him for pistons? He’s not looking for a top fueller, just a nice street engine with a bit of lump… probably a cast or hyperU ?

    Calling expert engine builders.....'77 360 build

    OK, things have changed. My friend added a zero to the deck height...should be .15, not .015! That kinda changes things a bit. Now the chart says 7.64 compression...OOPS! Now he's thinking of different pistons, or running the low comp and a Whiplash cam? Which would be best?

    Calling expert engine builders.....'77 360 build

    Thanks guys. Would the small Purple Shaft cam… 284/484. work with this combo?
