    318 with "special" j heads?

    I have a rebuilt stock bottom end 318 with flat top pistons. Pistons sit in in the hole a little and I'm going to measure for exact. My question is: I have a matching set of 360 j heads 1.88/1.6 valves that were milled to 49cc chambers. I ran them on my 360 for awhile but it was too much...

    Milled heads? what spark plugs?

    I never thought much about where my plugs are sitting in the head after I milled my heads. Now I'm talking about alot of milling. My j-heads cc'ed at 49 so you know there was a bunch taken off. My question is since the heads were milled so much should I be concerned about spark plug depth in the...

    octane boosters?

    Anyone know of a good brand of octane booster that actually works? I am running close to 10.1 compression and I think the gas here in New Mihico sucks. Best I can get it 91 octane. I have a detonation issue at 60-75 mph when I put the gas pedal to the floor. Doesn't have issues at low speed. I'm...

    another j head question

    I was going to put some time and effort into a set of 302 castings I have laying around for my 360. I soon realized that The money it would take to make them flow on my 360 is out of my budget for now. I think I will save them for a nice 318 build later. I currently have stock rebuilt...

    performance curve distributor

    Is it worth the extra money for a aftermarket distributor with a "built in performance curve"? I understand that the distributor is just a trigger for the spark but, I can't help wondering if my autozone vacuum advance distributor is not up to par for my msd box and high energy coil...

    J-head to eddie swap?

    On a stock 360 bottom end including pistons, what would be the performance gain going from the 1.88-1.60 j-heads to eddie heads? I am running the eddie rpm intake and spitfire headers with dual exhaust. Cam is a voodoo series .454/.475. I'm guessing the gains would come from the smaller...
