    Anyone add headers after, wonder why they waited?

    Short answer is yes. I put a set on a stock 318 several years after I rebuilt it, and the increase in power across the entire RPM band was very noticable! I didn't think there would be that big of a difference on a stock engine, but I was nicely surprised.

    Oil filter adapter question?

    I put a oil filter relocation kit on the 318 in my Barracuda, and it leaks with the small gasket that came with the kit. I'm hoping to take the adapter off the block and put a larger gasket on it - taking one off the top of an oil filter - and seeing if that helps. It's only a small leak so...

    Smog container , no brainer ?

    Need help with emissions...

    Have you changed your oil recently? The engine oil will absorb unburnt fuel and show up on a smog test as unburnt hydrocarbon's. While the engine is running, the carb will pull the hydrocarbons in through your PCV valve and it then goes out your tailpipe. Change your oil just before you take...

    Header/Oil Filter Issues.....

    Hi All, I have some headers on my 318 in my 69 Barracuda that I bought from a guy that used to drag race Mopar's (Friend of a neighbor), so I'm not sure about who made them. Could be Hedman. Anyway, I use a short oil filter Fram PH-43 or the Purolator equivalent 1058 - I think. The shorter...
