    Help me please tryin to beef up 318

    Half this thread makes me want to :banghead: You have most of the ingredients for a decent build just use those and grab an appropriate camshaft. your barely out any money and you will be done by prom. Build a 360 or something down the road and drive your car while your building it.

    Help me please tryin to beef up 318

    Just stick the 360 heads on the teen go somewhat mild with the cam. Big cams bleed off compression and 360 heads on a 318 lower the compression ratio a bunch. I have a 318 stock short block with stock 360 heads, 340 spec camshaft, torker II intake, edelbrock 600 cfm carb, cheap flowtech...

    Do you worry about your car when you take it out?

    My car had nice paint, I drove it everywhere parked it in the college parking lot and stuff. I just always tried to park away from people when possible. Wasn't always possible though. Anyway 7 years of driving and I only got one minor scratch from someone other than myself. I put a few scratches...

    How hard is it?

    It's not very hard to put one in but you need a magnetic base dial indicator.

    Any interest in Skip White HEI walk through?

    I think its a holden dizzy just made to fit a mopar. Not the same module as gm HEI but does the same stuff. The curve probably sucks in stock form I would play with lighter springs assuming they are accessable. The only bad thing is you might not be able to get the cap/rotor and module at your...

    1971 Match Race ~ 'Duster 340' vs. 'Boss 351 Mustang'

    The ports on the Cleveland are HUGE. I don't think any small block has bigger ports. Here is some pictures compairing them to ford windsor heads. They also have 2.19" intake valves! Pretty impressive really.

    Radiator flush

    I read once in hot rod magazine that they used a 50/50 mix of water and vineger left the cap off and ran the car at operating temp for maybe 10 minutes? Look into it before you do it obviously.

    small block performance AND economy

    FWIW, my mileage did not drop signifigantly going from 318 heads to 360 heads. Yes compression makes a difference but not a gigantic one.

    wanting what you have

    When I was looking at the other thread I thought to myself, yeah there's a lot of cool cars out there but mine are my favorite already. I got the 73 dart swinger as a birthday present when I was maybe 15? At first I though "cool I have a car" Then really did nothing for a few years and...

    Duster 5 spd conversion thoughts or issues

    The ax-15 bellhousing can be bolted to any toyota R series transmission. The input shaft lengths vary but I have some info on what lengths everything is. http://www.celicasupra.com/forums/showthread.php?65106-R154-motor-compatibility R154 is really the only one with car gearing, the rest...

    my new ride

    That's what mine has the torker 340. I think the intake gets a worse reputation than it really deserves. The air gap would gain you more power though. I personally like having the exhaust crossover though for when it gets colder out.

    my new ride

    not bad, I don't mine the paint at all. Maybe add a blue mopar logo to each side to give it some color. I have a very similar engine combo and it goes like hell and lays nice long strips of rubber. The combo likes lots of timing and the lightweight distributor springs. I see loads of potential...

    Can too much timing cause this noise?

    It doesn't sound like a timing issue to me. He could pop the belt or belts off and run it and see if it still makes the noise. that rules out a bunch of stuff. Then he can try and check the flywheel/flexplate and see if anything is weird there maybe a bolt loose or something. Then its down to...

    fan clutch Vs. bolted fan

    Clutch fan is better, Bolted fan has less parts and is more reliable. Clutch fans don't go bad that often so you really only want a solid fan if you want ultimate reliability. Hardcore 4x4 might use a solid fan, one less thing to break in the middle of nowhere. Or maybe it would be good for the...

    Resto prospect: '69 Polara 2-dr. 383

    IMHO neither car has much of a market. You'll have a difficult time flipping either and making money.

    What's everyone working on??? Ver.2.0

    I've been working on swapping a 351c, 4 speed toploader and 9 inch from a 73 torino to a nicer 74 automatic torino. Swapping everything over for my dad. Then I'm going to take the old 302 from the 74 torino and put it into my toyota :-) I would have liked to have gone mopar power but the 302 is...

    cars you junked but maybe should not have

    had a feather duster that I think was also a spirit of 76 car. sounds like a rare-ish combo. it was shot, the interior was missing hood and trunk were gone. Picked all the 4 speed parts for my car. picked every last thing that was good on it off. Sent it off to the scrap yard. Made out really...

    Bench or buckets ?

    I went from bench to buckets just recently. I put the high back buckets in. I actually feel like I sit up higher with the high back buckets and they are so much more supportive which I think makes them more comfortable. I guess the low backs are a bit different though. I want to make a custom...

    To buy or not?

    The sport has a lot going for it but it needs a bunch of work, are you up to doing all of it? The beak is the only thing i don't like about it. The 72 is going to need a lot less work and it drives so you'll be more motivated and it costs less :cheers: If your not sure how much work...
