    Ballpark estimate for the cost to do a 5.7 Hemi swap in a '70 Charger

    Ideally, I'd want a dished since it would be a longer stroke build. I'd rather have it at 9 to 1 than 10 to 1 and maybe need to run premium fuel (or higher) all the time. I would only do this if I could do it at a reasonable cost. If it were really a matter of $1600 for pistons, I'd dial it...

    Ballpark estimate for the cost to do a 5.7 Hemi swap in a '70 Charger

    How do you arrive at $1600 for a set of pistons? I have the 440 rods. I have the crank. This is a combination that has been done many times before. If true, this is a really weird thing.

    Need green bearings!!!

    Without a jet pack, you can't fight gravity. No permanent damage though. I'm virtually indestructible.

    Are you ready for a real weird one? Random NO spark from a MP electronic ignition system despite numerous parts swapped around...

    Yes, I did look at the old plug and by itself, it looked fine. When compared to one that had never been used, it was apparent that the female terminals were not as tight.

    Ballpark estimate for the cost to do a 5.7 Hemi swap in a '70 Charger

    Being the junkyard dog that I am at heart, I'd be tempted to use the turned down crank that I have and just buy pistons for it. Who knows though. This is all very fluid, very flexible. I've made no decisions yet, I've bought no parts. The crank was FREE to me but it got my wheels spinning about...

    Are you ready for a real weird one? Random NO spark from a MP electronic ignition system despite numerous parts swapped around...

    That was more than corrosion. I think that was from attaching and removing it so many times over the years. The terminals in the plug were wobbled out. I repainted the engine bay twice, relocated the ECM a couple of times and tried a few different ECMs over the years. This is just a guess but I...

    I agree to a point but it isn't humid here. The terminals stay dry for the most part.

    IGNOREd. Some people argue points that are not worth arguing. Quit polluting a popular thread with semantics.

    I worked my last Friday ever

    Congratulations, Sir. Post about it HERE too: I don't want to go to work tomorrow.

    Again, it could go either way. One could cite only the examples that support their own bias and think that they are correct.

    Are you certain of that? Commas are often a subjective piece of punctuation that are subject to opinions in terms of correctness, rather than rule. A question mark belongs at the end of a question. THAT is a rule.

    My point was when you call someone out for what you think is a mistake, you better make none of your own.

    Rear Flat Tire Change Roadside Tips

    I have. I have also used a manual tire pump. I don't use either of those things anymore because newer and better things have come along. Bumper jacks can and do bend or scratch bumpers. Back when you could get a replacement bumper for fifty bucks, that was fine but try to find a shop to...

    How accurate are your old rally cluster gauges?

    If you've ever taken these gauges apart, you'll wonder why you even trust them. They are extremely simple and from even a layman's view, they are merely "guidelines" as to what is going on. Tachometers are often notoriously slow so while you rev past 6000 rpms, the tach may show 5000, 5500...

    Need green bearings!!!

    Absolutely not an upgrade. Easier? Yeah but the load carrying capability is much lower than stock. Please, no. Where are you going to find a bearing that does not need the inner seal? You'd need to cut off the axle ends and weld in a different type to make this change...a radical change...
