Stop in for a cup of coffee

They are perfect! $50 shipped!!!!!! The air dam is to get the engine comp a bit cooler.

It also helps aerodynamics.

The oldest boy had a Mitsubishi Eclipse for his first car, and bought a low slung front facia. It helped improve the fuel economy 2-3 mpg (actual), but when the body guy went to pull it in the shop to paint it, it hung so low, that the small step into the garage wrecked it...
 
I have two 10" fans and it runs right at 180 at all times, just thinking to get some of the other heat out of the engine comp. I HEAT WRAPED THE TRI Y'S BUT IT STILL GETS QUITE WARM IN THERE.

Remove the hood or have those "vents" put in to let the hot air out...
 
It doesn't take too long to cc one chamber. He may want to do the "total fill method" where you install the head with the proper head gasket and measure at TDC and BDC.


You can just measure the thickness and diameter of the head gasket to calculate that.

Pi*R(squared)* thickness...

Make sure to convert to cc from inches...

It's in my compression how to thread...

I even got the seal of approval from RRR.... :cheers:
 
Hello again, everyone!

The X heads fell through. No X on them. They were 1973 340 heads, though.

Nothing wrong with those. Put in some 2.02" intake valves and give them a quick port and they will run great.

I even have some heads up to 77 and they still work well with a good port job and 2.02" valves....
 
humm.. well, he didn't ask for the head gaskets.. guess I will find out later today, gotta bring the bearings, rings, cam and heads to him soon here... thanks Mike!!


The prematorque gaskets that come in the mancini gasket kits are 12.4 cc's...

The thing is I wouldn't want to go to all the trouble of machining heads that aren't any better than the ones I have. I have 3769974 heads, 75-76 360 heads.

If the 340 heads with the 1.88 valves are higher compression and better flowing, then I might buy them anyway but if they're on par with the ones I have - meh.
 
yea, wez was rockin and rollin this morn..

You all are chatty this morning...

Reminds me of a story from when I was a young kid. The older kids used to say "you have a big mouth for your age" alot to us younger crowd in the neighborhood. One day my mom was yelling at me over some small issue, and when she got done I said to her, "you have a big mouth for your age"... :D

Dad was there and busted out laughing... He thought that mom over did the yelling as whatever I did wasn't that big of a deal... (I can't remember the reason now...) #-o


So as we used to say back in the hood, "you all have a big mouth for your age" as you talked so much this morning and I'm now just getting caught up....

No,the combustion chambers are pretty much the same for the 340/360 heads, just vary from when people shave them for rebuilds whether to get them flat again or to adjust compression...
