I just drilled and tapped the intake manifold. This is a bad picture of it, but you can see it under the top radiator hose, dark blue fitting. LD340 intake

My neighbor ran his truck on a chassis dyno, the print out gave to him said this. Torque 650.62 ft/lbs HP 702.63 Crank hp 872.79 So this is the first chassis dyno print out I have seen, just contradicted everything you said.

Check summit for a PVC 90 deg adapter.

If you have not bought a balancer yet, I have had good luck with these and the SFI ones. The nice thing is the factory pulleys align right up, unlike some balancers. Professional Products 80012 Professional Products PowerForce Harmonic Dampers | Summit Racing

Used two gaskets on mine.

That is ultra high compression for a 318, I am not even sure which pistons to use to get it that high.

I would try a different compression gauge.

I built a 5.9 with Edelbrock heads, and a 340 with X heads about the same time. I broke both of them in on my engine start stand, using the same headers (generic steering thru the headers car style). Using the same name brand header gaskets, with no leaks. I then had a change of plans and put...

They are good carbs, have one on my Duster now

It was built just to catch anything you drop.

Gap the rings and send it. It will be fine for a daily driver.

x2 on cast rings, I have good luck honing with ATF

You are over-thinking this, you are just using it for a grocery getter, clean the pistons up real good, check the crank tolerances and put it together.

Sometimes its the simple things. Check the teething ring on the torque converter, it looks a little chewed up.

A pic of my Duster, I have since changed the air-cleaner, to a factory 1970 one, soon to ditch the aluminum radiator for a stock one, with shroud.

X2 I worked years ago for a guy that had a body shop, he had alot of nice antique cars and hot-rods. He always said it was cheaper to buy a done car.

You can buy the 1 wire set up in a Mopar case, I have one on my Duster.

I hope it is what you expect. When buying an old car I always tell my-self: Expect the worst, hope for the best.

Did you buy the car?

Drive it and see what the car needs first, it will need something. And do not buy any performance parts that cannot be used for larger engine upgrade.

My buddy has a 5.3 junkyard engine with a turbo on it, its been together for several years, nothing fancy, 698 hp at the rear tires. Its in a truck, he pulled out of the junkyard, he fixed up the truck, he painted it, has less than 9K in the entire truck. A lot of time, but not a lot of money...

X2 I have a fresh teen machine shop fresh, with some goodies 2.02 J heads, small cam, its a sacrificial lamb on my 6-71 build, find out what it will not take and then stick a really good forged engine under the 6-71.

Stick it in the Fury.

I think it would stay together as is with iron heads, but with aluminum it may be sketchy. The aluminum heads or going to expand more, but you would not be using the steel head gaskets...... You could just put it back together and run it.

Its as shame you are not in the states, I would give you a bare 318 block.

Nothing leaks with Right Stuff, but it takes an air-chisel to take it apart. I just use the Black RTV, it seals, and will come back apart fairly easy.

Very nice looking car.

Pretty easy really, I used an HEI box and a single wire alternator.
