Here's a funny one Appearantly, if you squint at this one, it shows you the effects of alcohol

Now that the engine is home, you're really making progress! Thanks for sharing a great story.

To be honest, I love everything old school Mopar. But the 318 is my all time favorite engine, for exactly the reasons I've outlined. A mild cam, a set of closed chamber heads, and they are peppy enough for daily beater duty. I currently have 20 318s, a few 360s, half a dozen 383s, two 400s...

Should be the last snow for the season real soon I hope.

One of the best IMO!, seen him many times.RIP! 65'

Read this book. I did, and it managed to lower my already-thought-it-couldn't-be-any-lower opinion of the lavishly subsidized sewer that is Chinese industry and its American enablers. Lowering that particular opinion of mine is a neat trick, because I have direct experience with that festering...

One of my all time fav T-shirts :D Mammoth Mtn map, take it and turn it upside down and put it on the front of your t-shirt :lol: Just look down and see just how lost you are :lol:

What else do you need?

Anyone heard of the Twick Flu power package or Hochimen headers.

That’s hilarious!!

The fact that they've gotten into permanent mold castings is another good sign. Permanent molds cost a lot more and the equipment to support them even more so, but the quality is much higher and repeatability is greater which makes thinner walls and precision geometry much easier to produce...

Thank you very much .Headed to the hardware store now .

Been snowing here also a little white this morning but then rain, cold and wind. Just ugly out, but the lab is nice and warm. Wife gone to yoga so KD and wieners for supper I guess. Isn’t that a food group all to itself?

I've experienced it enough first-hand to know exactly what happened. Someone at speedmaster sent a legit part to a shop in China and said "Make it like this", and so they did. Most china based companies couldn't even figure out how to make the part from drawings, almost everything comes from...

Having dealt with Edelbrock on a couple intake manifolds Edelbrock is trying to turn things around. I’ve seen good things going on. Fingers crossed

I think, I know it's poor QC. Some of it is just the process. Most of the mopar parts are sand-cast versus permanent mold. Sand casting can produce good parts, but worn or neglected tooling results in more tolerances and of the processes they run, sand is probably the most variable. As a result...

That’s just silly, what changes the color of the threads? Throw the plug in the ocean and take a peek at it a mile down. No change, plenty of pressure, no heat.

:(
