im in essex closer to baltimore
here are some closer pictures of the items. The ignition control can be removed with the HEI types correct?
What does the 4 prong balast do?
I did my best to circle some of the items I need help identifying. I also posted a picture of what it looks like without the circles. I tried to color code the circles so if you can help identify you can do it by color to make things a bit easier.
I'm in the process of swapping a 408 in where...
any message/denting needed. clearances work okay with steering and starter? any idea on length as well? id prefer mid length from my research but i can only seem to find long tubes or shorties for the 73 b body small blocks.
yeah everything turns great balancer clears water pump pretty good oil pan fits pretty good. ive drilled out the holes on the intake. its a jegs brand air gap. it may be junk. i may just use the eddlebrock intake that already on my 318. but we will see. it fits a bit better after drilling but...
I'm an idiot guys. (If you haven't guessed by now.) Got the windage tray all move up. Got the damper in and just needed to push it in all the way. It fits perfectly. Did run into an issue with the cool gap intake. It dosent lign up very well. It's the jegs branded one and I do see alot of...
Bought a damper. Neutral balanced. Seems like it's too big. The one I bought. Says 7.3 inches. It's showing that 360 LA motors came with 7.25. The part says it's for a 360 LA or mag between 1964-2003. Any ideas? @RemCharger @icetech. This engine was originally a 1990 d150. Maybe I'd need a...
Right. well i am planning on using headers. so i don't think I'm going to use them if they are not required. I have decided I'm going to do the correct thing and not be lazy, ill move the windage tray forward. i am hoping to have most of the engine buttoned up this Sunday and have some pics to...
I'm pretty sure they're both tapped. I just dope them an plug them?
no i didn't drill the bolt. i looked all around and it seems like most people don't have any issues if they didn't modify theirs, it looks like they didn't even do it from the factory after like 1973 or something like that. i...
are we considering the first to be the left or right? and what do you mean by ill want that? do i want to plug it or what? i assume i don't want to leave either of them open.
and I'm absolutely running headers. so what should i be doing with the brace one?.
yeah i looked at the picture after i...
@icetech @RemCharger do either of you guys know what these holes are for? are they for sensors or should they just be plugged?
Also, does the windage trey i just added look too far back? I'm looking at the pictures again and it occurs to me that it could probably be moved forward. is there a...
Got the pushrods installed. Got the roller rockers all adjusted. Got the windage tray and oil pump and pickup installed. Were coming along just fine. Next will be the timing cover, balancer, water pump, oil pan, intake, and distributor. Gonna try for all that this sunday, unless i have to make...
@CoronetDarter @RemCharger @icetech does any of you guys know if one of the bolts on the thrust plate is supposed to have an oiling hole in it? i just realized i didn't have an oil slinger, so i looked them up to try an see what was needed. and it seems like the slingers aren't even needed. that...
so no. the rocker adjustment was rotated out 3 full turns which is why i said id need to re measure. but im pretty positive the cam was on base. i rolled it over so it was on the tip and then spun it until it seemed like it was 180 degrees opposite.
i got fed up with the rockers and stopped. i...
yes i measured from the base. ill have to remeasure again though. i didn't adjust the rockers correctly. that still seems awfully short though. i believe stock are 7.5. i just didn't imagine there would be that much of a difference.

Do you happen to remember what size pushrod you ended up with on this build? if im measuring right mine is saying 6.56. but that seems a bit small so im wondering if i did something incorectly?
