I did a 512ci stroker a few years ago from a 400 Chrysler. I had the engine Dyno and it was running a bit leaner on the right side over the left. Just wondering if this is a normal trait for a duel plane intake on bb mopar because of different intake runner length? Being on a dyno this was...

So I built a 512 stroker last year and I have put hardly any km on it because of valve train noise. I pulled the Valve covers off tonight and let the motor run with the covers off and I see no oil running over the rockers on both sides? I do see oil pooling in the head and it looks like oil in...

Just curious if anyone knows the original cam specs for the 1964 426 race hemi? I have tried to find the info on the web but can't find the numbers. They always said they were in the 650 to 750hp range.

Hey guys just had the car out for a good test drive today and I'm getting a surge at just tip in throttle at about 30-55mph. The car run great if you get in the throttle and keep the speeds above 60. Im not sure if this is caused by the carb settings or the convertor? I have always had manual...

I call comp cam to double check what push rod I need for my fuel pump and they said it needs a bronze tip push rod? It's a hydrolic roller cam from comp. the reason I'm a little unsure is the part number on the cam is a custom grind and they couldn't find it.

I'm trying to decide if I should go with a 160 or 180. My motor was dyno on pump gas 91 octane here in Canada and that's with trusting it has no ethanol. It's a stroker big block with a cr of 10:5:1. It had no destination problems in its dyno runs but they ran the coolant at 170 in the tests. My...

Well I got my motor and trans pulled out. I took the trans out then the motor and it went way to smooth for any of my projects lol. The question I have is, will it be easier to put the motor in first then fight getting the trans to line up or trans first then the motor? I'm sure you will say put...

im looking for a mini starter for a big block that's not going to break the bank.

This may sound like a dumb question. I'm sure some of you are following my 512 build. The machine shop had to deck the block 10 thou and had to machine the top of the pistons for 0 deck. My question is would this effect cubic inch of the engine and is there a way to calculate the change? Also I...

I see that monster transmission make a monster in a box kit for 750hp. Does anyone have experience with this kit? My engine builder can do transmissions as well...

Just called the machine shop today to let them know I'm still looking for a block. I have found a few more complete engines. Then the builder suggested that if I don't have any luck finding a suitable candidate block that he could offset bore my block. They have the proper equipment to do it and...

I'm doing a 500 build and was planing on TF 240's but have stated to think maybe just go with the TF 270. If I could get a good flowing single carb duel plan intake that just might be the road I take.

Just looking for some opinions on a few parts I can't decide what companies to go with. I'm building a 512 around the 600hp range. The parts I would like some feedback are, harmonic balancer and timing chain. I was looking at summit double roller timing chain and professional products balancer...
