    So, I have to know........ (solid vs hyd)

    99.999999999% of you here seem to run hydraulic cams, and 95% seem to run stock style non adjustable rockers....... Being someone who despises the not so handy invention called a hydraulic lifter, I am curious why most use them? Is it cost? The fact you don't have to adjust them ever ever...

    Pushrods, why the mystery........???

    I have two sets of 7.5" pushrods for iron adjustables. When I built my 318 for my boat, it had a set of stock iron adjustables. It had 7.5 pushrods. They are about 3/16" too long, so, I stole the pushrods out of my 390. I called comp, told them whet I had, and they sent me a set of pushrods...

    318 2bbl with cheap 260.270 cam performance vid

    From a discussion on another thread about the performance difference of a 318 with a 4bbl with stock cam, and 4bbl with a mild cheaper cam, there was a bit of difference in opinions of how a cam would affect a 318, without porting of heads, etc...... A clip was posted of a 0-60 before and after...

    Screw the 318! I'm going 273!!! Pistons questions.....

    Wifes got a 2wd ramcharger I put a 360 I built for a B stock roundyround truck, and she doesn't like the rough idle, the hard starting, or the 7MPG.............. So, I am thinking, for the sake of MPG, to put one of these 273's I have together. What pistons have you 273 guys found and used...

    One turn, two turn, quarter turn, half turn... (Valve adjustment)

    OK, so, now that I have had to build a total different backwards turning 360 for my boat... (long rant, wanna hear it?) CORRECTLY, I am using the adjustable rockers that came on it. The cam is used, and the lifters are used, cam is mild, less than 400 lift, stock springs. NORMALLY, I like to go...

    1lostsoldiers 302 head thread, take 2

    If you are running 480 lift, besides changing the springs, make sure your retainer isn't going to beat on the valve seal, AND you may have to mill down where the spring rides on the head to get you installed height too...... Food for thought, check twice, do one. LOL

    Crank Question, what should I do?

    My Chrysler marine 360 broke a crank, right at the last rod journal, anyone know of a good quality crank to put in the 360? Or should I just pull one of my cranks out and stuff it in?

    Engine issues........BIG TIME.

    Long story short. My Boat has a Chrysler 360 in it, that replaced the 318 it came with. ((Some of you see a red flag) Anyway, I found the PPwork, and it is a solid cam, balalnced, blueprinted, dyno'd marine engine, real nice job. Motor purred like a kitten. Anyway, they took the 318 out, and...

    318 manifold on a 360........

    So this isn't an A body engine question, but I need some opinions. I have a Boat, with a 360 in it. It has the little single plane 4bbl manifold on it from the 318 it replaced. What effect do you think the little port manifold has on the big port heads? I have put 318 heads on 360's for hunting...
