Now with the camshaft. Im looking for a cam that beats pretty wild at idle but has good throttle response and will operate from about 2500-6000 as this will just be a street car to put these foxbodys around to shame. Is my cam too big ? Is it streetable. (By the way i want to keep it a hydraulic...
Never mind on the magnum heads just picked up a set of 340 x heads that have had new springs , valves and a little bowl work for $300 yesterday . Good score I reckon .

Stock to mild 318 build
I have got a 68 coronet 440 deluxe that I am in the process of building. It came factory with a 318 2bbl/ 8 3/4 rear end /Bench seat on the column. I'm in the process of stripping the motor...
I have got a 68 coronet 440 deluxe that I am in the process of building. It came factory with a 318 2bbl/ 8 3/4 rear end /Bench seat on the column. I'm in the process of stripping the motor apart as i'm typing this . It was running fine when i pulled it but i need a little more peppy action out...
What's the paint code and where did you get it from ? im restoring a 1968 coronet and this was the factory color and ive been hunting someone that has painted their car this color to really decide if i liked it enough to go back to the original color and seeing your car has really made my...
Would you know what heads came with motor? But yessir I'm going to be running 26 inch drag radials on prostars. I've been looking around at cams and I'm fine with downgrading thump for bottom end power. And for carb choices I've found a predator carb that is a 390 cfm to a 900cfm. It's only...
What I'll probably do is get it bored , new pistons , new rockers, lifters, mild cam, timing chain, bottom ed balanced . Then new ignition, headers, header wrap . 3 inch exhaust . Stall converter and have a sweet little motor . It may take longer but in the long run it will save me time and me...
Yes sir, that's what my dad was telling me . I want it to be able to thump to around 3000 Rpms as then my exhaust system will take over. My overall goal is to have a street/strip 1/4 monster .
What I'll more and likely do is bore it , forged pistons, and then put a purple cam in that has a 292/292 advertised duration that doesn't require a bigger than factory stall which I'll still put in any way. Then new lifters and timing chain then I'll dress it up . Btw my dad told me he would...
We'll all my buddies at school got novas with small blocks that barely rumble. I'd like my car to thump the ground pretty hard but still be able to run like a scalded dog . I'd like to keep from stroking for right now and let that be a project later on in life. I've only got budget of around...
I came across a 73-78 440 the other day while looking for a 68 model 383. Everything came with motor except the factory carb and intake . I ended up swapping my newest project which was a 71 bug for it. I just couldn't resist. The intake that came with it was a high rise Eldebrock torker 440...
Yes sir , It really ain't much. They all need some work but what's the fun in redoing a car if it don't give you adversities to overcome . What kind of b-bodies you have
I appreciate all the welcomes, and ive been using my phone to operate the website and it won't let me upload any pics of the cars. I'll try my best to have the pictures of the coronet , charger, and satellite up within the next few days if the phone let's me . Thank ya

Hey guys ! My name is Bobby Mathis and I'm a 15 years old and I'm a young gun you could say and new to this website. Me and my dad own a few b-bodies. I Have a 1968 coronet deluxe coupe , 1972 satellite Sebring , and in mid stages of restoration of a 1973 charger with my dad . Thanks for looking
Thanks guys , my plans are to drop a 440 in it around this time next year. I picked one up the other day by swapping a 71 super beetle for it . It came with Eldebrock 650 carb and a Eldebrock old school high rise aluminum torker intake. I'm having to redo the whole motor due to water getting in...
Me and my Dad got this car out of a horders building this summer. It had been sitting since 1991 with the brakes tore apart from it and all chrome peices and interior out of it. It's got the original 318 with the original 2barrel on it . It's a bench seat column shift car . It's my dad's daily...
