    What to expect from 1970 383 HP

    ICON offers several very reasonably priced off-the-shelf choices for that combination. ICON IC690 can be had around $700 if you do a little shopping They don't cost anymore than a small block piston. Tom

    What to expect from 1970 383 HP

    I've just sold a German guy a 491" stroker kit for a 383 block and have sold a lot of German guys stroker kits for 383's. You can build a really good running 383" engine with just a few parts. They were built long before everyone started building 400 blocks. For sure I would build a 383 for...

    Mini-split AC for garage.

    I think you'll need more than that for a desert location. I see mobile homes out there with two 5-ton units on the roof. We have several mini splits on residential apartments, they work well, and are really easy to install. Tom

    Best oil for a roller cam engine

    Synthetic oil is great for engines that see daily use. aka semi trucks and route delivery trucks, but it a poor oil for engines that sit around more than getting driven. I just use Valvoline VR30 in my 499" RB street car with a roller cam, as it doesn't see any winter use. 10-years and no...

    Ate a cam, time to switch to roller, I guess, but which one?

    That's the exact cam I've had in my 499"RB street car for 10-years and I absolutely love it. While you can no longer buy K-Motion valve springs I run it with K-Motion K-800 spring which are not big killer springs. I've never had any issues or problems running it. If you have really good valve...

    Is this cam too small for a 383/489 stroker?

    I run the Comp Cams Xtreme Energy XR274R, 236/242 in my 499" RB 63 Plymouth Fury street car. https://www.compcams.com/xtreme-energy-236-242-solid-roller-cam-3-bolt-for-chrysler-383-440.html Since you're only running 9.5 to 1 compression I assume your goals are for more tame street performance...

    I modified a 2nd plenum for my M1 Tunnel Ran, but have yet to use it. I think it will work better than the original. M1 Tunnel Ram Top Plenum Volume Reduction with Photos Tom

    What did you do today....other than work on your car!?

    I've known Rick for a long time. He owned a transmission shop that he sold out to get into BBQ. His food is good, but the portions are really small. Tom

    What-if...new INDY Modman

    My take on the current Modman is that is worthless unless you modify it like you have. I guess my question would be how many people are going to change the carburetor configuration once they get a set of carbs on it? So the only benefit I see is to the seller in that one intake can provide...
