    any benefit to swapping heads?

    A SINCERE thank you to all that have chimed in with their knowledge and experience. This is now a non-issue. I had a gentleman come up to me at a car show in September and offer me the "give me a number" price...so now she is living elsewhere. It was bittersweet...but I stayed with Mopar, so...

    any benefit to swapping heads?

    AJ, I have a newly reconditioned A833 from Passon Performance 4spd, 355's as we said...and 275 60's on the back. I AGREE wholeheartedly that I am looking for off the line torque. So w/out swapping the trans gearset, am I looking back to a cam change?

    any benefit to swapping heads?

    Amazing...thank you all for taking the time to share your knowledge... I agree that maybe the best bet is to sell the X heads and swap the cam. I just love how lopey it sounds lol... but I love burnouts more than lopey!!

    Would swapping the 355's to 391's help low end torque?

    any benefit to swapping heads?

    So are you saying keep the 360 hands and just degree the cam? Or adjust the cam and put the X heads on?

    any benefit to swapping heads?

    It's low compression 8.5 and does bog. I'm looking for more low end torque...my mechanic says it's due to the cam.

    any benefit to swapping heads?

    Thanks...interior had duster seat covers originally (vertical pleats). I had an upholstery shop swap the inserts. I compared price to finding a good bench seat and replacement plaid seat covers from Legendary and saved considerably just doing the inserts. Key buzzer works w key in ignition...

    diesel oil alternative?

    I'm getting ready to change the oil for the season, and was asking a few buddies what they use and one of them said they've been using Rotella 15W 40 diesel oil in his 340 for a few years. says it seems to hold the viscosity better when hot and oil pressure is never below 30psi at idle. Anyone...

    bolting on X-heads to my 340, can i use my exhaust manifolds?

    I have a valve tap which started me down this road of rebuild...motor came w car-I replaced: lifters, rockers, springs, cam was inspected when intake was off and lobes looked okay...tap still there-so I'm thinking cam is only thing I didn't replace-which I will do so when I do the heads. I have...

    bolting on X-heads to my 340, can i use my exhaust manifolds?

    Maybe the carburetor needs to be tuned … I don't feel it's crisp at 1500… It kicks in for 3 to 5000 RPMs ...I feel it bogs down off the line

    bolting on X-heads to my 340, can i use my exhaust manifolds?

    The one that is on there now I believe so… It is rated for 1500–5000 RPM power band… I want power band from idle-5000 rpm... so I picked up a weiand

    bolting on X-heads to my 340, can i use my exhaust manifolds?

    Over the winter I am going to be changing the cam. I picked up a set of complete X heads ready to bolt on. I am running stock exhaust manifolds and don't want to go with headers. Should there be any issues bolting up stock exhaust manifolds w the X heads? motor has stock heads, a 474 lift...
