73 Duster
So all I know about this motor is: I pulled it from an RV about 4 years ago, and it has run great. Has J heads, headers, edel dual plane intake, new 600 cfm edel carb, and a new complete tune up. The car is still doggy and slow. The timing is correct because my friend who only drives and deals in old school mopars timed it, and has done so before with amazing results. I am the student, so if you have a very technical question about my motor I may not understand. But my tach needle jumps at idle more than it has in the past (like a couple mm up and down when it used to be constant always). I'm wondering if that sounds like a stretched timing chain? Or a bad cam. So I'm determined to get this running right, and I wouldn't mind replacing both of those parts, but I would like a little advise on lift and duration, lifters, new springs maybe, and double roller or not... I would like mild performance a little more than stock, nothing crazy because this is my daily driver. I have a 3.23 posi in the rear, I'm sure that is something I will be asked if I don't type it in. Anyways thank you for reading my novel and if you have any advise that would be awesome! I would ask my mopar friend but he is in the middle of moving farther away and is very busy...
