Just a simple little 318, rebuilt top end with 360 heads, edelbrock RPM airgap intake, edelbrock 650 AVS2 carb, Long tube headers, Double roller timing, Hughes Whiplash Cam, Pertronix Billet Distributor...
Yep, I think you nailed it. I still need to check my secondaries to make sure everything is working with fuel delivery (its a brand new carb). But Im now leaning toward being off a tooth on my cam timing.
Exhaust is basically open headers right now so we can scratch that.
Yes I'm pulling the vacuum advance from the distributor and clamping it for initial.
Its a big cam, so I might just need to really sit down and dial in the timing, probably get a second set of eyes on everything too. Never...
Revs normal in park and neutral. If I recall it had this issue before the rebuild...been a year and a half. I chalked it up to a bad acc pump on the old 2BB.
Alright, i just finished rebuilding the top end on my 72 coronet wagon with a 318. I installed a Hughes Whiplash cam, lifters and springs, 360 heads with all new valves, guides, seats and valve job. Edelbrock RPM airgap intake, edelbrock 650 AVS 2, Mopar Performance timing kit and mostly Mopar...
Im still wrestling with the idea of keeping it or selling it. Also I still want to boost this thing with a turbo...Im poor so these things take time lol

Im pulling the bottom end and taking it in to the machine shop for new bearings and a hot tank. Then new rod and main bearings and rings. If there is a problem with the cam journal they will be able to catch it.
Got it up on the lift last Saturday and pulled the motor, tore it down and ran into a bit of a problem.
2 of my cam bearings are total junk. Is replacing these going to be a pain in the butt because they are missing so much surface area? Do i need to replace my bottom end now too? oil pump...
So its been about 8 months since i last worked on the wagon, and have since changed direction with it a little bit. I am still doing a full top end rebuild, already got my 360 heads rebuilt with Hughes Engines performance springs, still doing the RPM Air Gap intake, but now going with an...
Good to know. I am doing a higher performance build with a Hughes Whiplash cam, so i was kinda wondering... Im about to send heads out to the machine shop so I figured I should ask.
Had a Nikon D600 with a slew of lenses but got rid of it for a micro 4/3 camera. I now shoot with that (a Panasonic Lumix G7) or my LG G6 phone. The phone actually takes great photos and has a very wide angle lens.
