but i hope not.that would mean a valve head is gone

the fell down onto the windage tray,and were picked up and thrown by the crankshaft,im sure.it wouldnt be the first time ive seen this

When your neighbor came and put that one piston in for ya?I mean the rest of the rod bearing caps.I dont remeber,because it looked like he had everything under control that day.From the pictures,it looks like the tops of all the valves are still there,but that dont mean there wasnt some...

are all the valve,keepers,retainers in place?

Im using the lunati voodoo cam in my .030 318,with home ported 302 casting heads,and i love it!The car pulls hard from idle to 6500 rpms and gets much better gas milage than a 360 would. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/LUN-60303/ heres the listing at summit racing...

http://www.campbellenterprises.com/parts.php?type=search&query=K13184000ef6f this would help you get there,they have the pistons too,i think.Some good aftermarket manum style heads,with a performer rpm airgap intake,hughes cam,good headers,etc,and youll get to the 10s,i think.

to were to get the EQ s.Ive been looking,cant find them again.

If you have a 318 thats only getting 12 mpg,then the 5.9 is gonna get 8mpg.The .030 318 in my dart gets about 16mpg or better,and it has somewere around 350-375hp.Your combination of parts must be off somehow.The magnum motors are even worse on gas.A 318 can be very efficient on gas,with the...

I think yall should just save your time and money,and send me the crappy things,so yall wont be so upset when your rear tires wear excessivley,and parts start to break,like rear axles,drive shafts and such.Besides,dont yall know the extra mpg the swirlport,closed chamber heads offer,just slow...

you need to look under the right cylinder head,i think it is,and the vin should be stamped there,on the block

just dont go too big,it will kill the flow velocity,and actually slow you down with a 273.I imagine the stock valve size would be optimum actually.

I ported my 302 casting heads,and left the small valves in.My 318 screams all the way to 6500.I didnt go wild with the port work,just opened the bowls to valve seat size,and a good blending so the turns are nice and smooth.I also gasket matched the intake side to 340/360 size,and matched the...

there are a couple more ive read that i can find right now,maybe someone els can find them.

I thought since a lot of guys like myself like building 318s for what ever reason,id try to compile all the 318 engine combos i could find.Most of the engine builds ive found so far are 375 hp or more.A couple have made it over 400 hp,and the parts dont seem to be too exotic,so it wont cost much...

I ran a streetmaster for about 4 years.Mine was gasket matched to 340 size,because my 302 casting heads were gasket matched.I noticed that the streetmaster was good from idle to about 4500 rpms,were it fell on its face.The cam i was running was good up to 5500,and had matching valve springs.As...

it should be plenty strong,unless its overcammed,not enough converter,too high rear gear,or ignition timing off.Usually when an engine sparknocks,or pings,the timing is too high.My small blocks seem to really like less timing than other engines,and they pull real strong.My 318 is pretty...

ok bobby,spill the beans,what crank,rods and pistons are being used in that 344?

Its a .030 over 318,federal mogul cast pistons,mp thin head gaskets,302 casting heads,ported,bowl blended,gasket matched by me to 340 felpro intake gaskets.Exhaust side was gasket matched to mr gasket header gaskets.Weiand stealth intake,gasket matched.Lunati voodoo camshaft,with 226/234...

YEAHHHHHHHHHHH! Lol

I would recommend new springs anytime you upgrade a camshaft.I have bent too many pushrods myself in my younger years.As far as rockers go,its not duration you have to worry about but lift.with no more lift than that cam has,you will be fine.

According to Hughes Engines web site,i think it was(dont stone me if im wrong)They reccomend the stealth over the M1 for a street/strip engine,with very minor work of course.Its actually about the same height as the M1,just needs the bottom of the runners straightened slightly,and has an rpm...

http://www.lucasoil.com/products/display_products.sd?iid=82&catid=9&loc=show&headTitle= - Engine Break-In Oil Additive - TB Zinc Plus

i went to advance auto yesturday and saw they sale lucas oil,break in oil.It say right on the bottom it has high zinc in it for flat tappet cams.Its not a bad price.Whats wrong with running a pint of it per oil change to keep from wiping cam lobes?It says to use it for the first 1000 miles,and...

dang,75.00 was cheap,but i guess if you didnt need it,better to let it go cheap than let it collect rust.I had heard about the cross wind intake,but when i mentioned it on fabo a while back,a lot of guys treated me like i was slapping them in the face.I guess because its a chinese? made...

Thanks for the info.I understand about the roller versus hydraulic cam debate.My problem is the price of the roller cams.I havent looked a lot,because the ones ive seen are @300.00 or more.I can buy 2 or 3 flat tappet cams for 300.00!Are there some cheaper roller cams with good specs for under...

Cool!Ill still run an electric fuel pump,so do i still need to use the old style timing cover?

Will this work? or is the block not accept a flat tappet hydraulic cam?
