    small block differences. someone want to fill me in please?

    well, i still dont have a tach in my car, the only one i can find that is affordable is 2 5/8. but i have a feeling mine gets up there in the rpms too. but under hard acceleration, i can hear the valvetrain start ticking really hard around what i would guess is just shy of 5k

    small block differences. someone want to fill me in please?

    i love the way my 318 just runs up the rpms. the short stroke lets it rev really fast, and i like that. and the stock cam must have some torque on the low end, because even with the 2.45 gears, it jumps from idle. i guess thats why the 340 is so popular? revs fast but has a bigger bore for more...

    oil pressure

    mopower: oh no, the sending unit was a 1", it doesnt have any place besides the biggest part of it to grip to unscrew it, which required a 1" socket. let me see if i can get you a picture. brb.

    small block differences. someone want to fill me in please?

    well, i think it has to do a lot with the bullstuff emissions laws they were trying to appease. lowering compression and adding some screwey *** fuel pacer system, me, not having it. i pulled just about all of the crap off of my car yesterday and rearranged some stuff under the hood, moved my...

    oil pressure

    yeah, i found it right after i posted... one 1" socket i had fit, and... one didnt. it was weird. my car keeps good pressure for having so many miles. just about 50psi at first, about 37 at warm idle.

    oil pressure

    where is the 'bung' to screw an oil pressure sender in located? i got a mechanical oil pressure gauge, but i cant locate the area where i need to put the adapter to hook the hose up to. i was told it would be around the oil filter, but i cant feel one under the exhaust manifold.

    hey man, if you decide to trash it, let me know. i need to check my engine out. im thikning its fixing to fall apart and may not be useable for a small build up. the 318 from your car is probably a 230hp model, whereas mine is of the '150/170' line :(

    which small blocks came with forged cranks stock?

    416 Stroker question.

    are their cranks all forged? because they want $595 for just the crankshaft, but jegs has a 318/340 main 4" stroke cast crank for $350

    small block differences. someone want to fill me in please?

    ok, so, 318 is 3.91x3.31 340 is 4.04x3.31 360 is 4.00x3.58 could a 360 crank be run in a 318 if the main sizes were turned down? what about the connecting rods if this were possible, would they have to be 360 connecting rods? that would make it a 'stroked' 344 roughly? 3.91 x 3.58? that...

    416 Stroker question.

    is it now... what about othre differences? the heads have bigger ports and runners? knowing this i suppose i can do a lot more with my 318 than i had originally thought. are the mains the same size on a 340 and 318? and... could i use a 360 crank in my 318 if i had the mains turned down, would...

    Weight savings

    wood grain trim in the dash? if looking to lose weight on something quick, why not lose the WHOLE dash? or maybe all the trim to it, heater box and climate controls, glovebox, dash pad.. then all it will be is a mount for the gauge cluster... :)
  19. R

    416 Stroker question.

    ... wouldnt that just be a 360 with smaller mains then? ok, so, a 340 is kind of a cross between a 360 and a 318? 318 stroke, and roughly 360 bore?

    416 Stroker question.

    Melling M72HV oil pump.

    i was thinking, when i have my motor apart later on to redo the bearing and valve springs, etc. i should replace the oil pump. i found out i can pick up a melling M72HV (25% more volume than stock) from advance autoparts for $45.88. could htis pump be considered an 'upgrade' or at least an...
