    Some Unrealistic Expectations...

    1.) Not a bad looking car. Body and mechanical work looks to be all done or very close to being done; button it up, paint it your favorite high impact color and go cruising. Price wise a touch high, but depending IF it is a #matching factory big block and what other options it has, its not too...

    What Type of Rear Axle Oil & Additive for my Sure Grip Dana 60

    Any gear oil will work really, I put 80W-90 in my 8 3/4 but some people like some different viscosity fluids like 75W-140. All in all as long as the diff has fluid it will be happy. As for the additive you can get it at any parts store, just look for the good names or head over to the dealership...

    Has anyone put an air grabber into a 73 RR hood?

    I don't know, I saw close to 10 of these hoods at the Nationals this year and in the two days I was there I didn't see but one or two get sold. A lot of people tend to cast our cars off as "non-muscle" for some reason. But those kind of people are kindof weird....:realcrazy:

    Has anyone put an air grabber into a 73 RR hood?

    I have drawn up a few different ideas utilizing the power bulge and a 69 style system. From what I have measured up it is possible to have a factory appearing system but definitely be prepared to modify the hood and or system. I am going to start work on mine once I get out of college and...

    Freshen up a 360

    I considered using a Magnum for a time also, here's a good website that tells you what you can use and what doesn't swap over from the LA blocks. http://www.magnumswap.com/using-la-parts-on-a-magnum/ Here's a good article by Steve Dulcich on building a Magnum motor...

    Freshen up a 360

    If I had to place a bet, I would say that those heads are 587 castings with the 72cc chambers. If you have a little bit of coinage to spend, my suggestion is to get some Edelbrock RPM Heads. They have 63cc chambers and without changing anything on the bottom end you'll be up over 9.0-1. And...

    Freshen up a 360

    Just out of curiosity, what kind of compression and heads are you running? Because that cam might be a little too much for 8.5-1 Compression and 1.88 valves! With that Air Gap type intake, you'll want a different throttle cable bracket to set everything up higher and you'll want to replace the...

    unwanted sounds!

    I just put in my fresh 360 and 727 too! Mine kinda rattles and ticks also though I know I definitely have an exhaust leak! Make sure your exhaust isn't contacting anywhere and you have all the straps/hangers guten-tight!

    1972 340

    I guess it would all depends on three factors. How complete the engine is. Their Price. And what your plans are for it. The 1972 Blocks came with "J" Heads that had 1.88 valves and their pistons are probably a little deep in the hole. If you are going to keep it mostly stock on the bottom end...

    1974 Roadrunner 360 Sunroof KB5 Blue

    Most if not all the mechanicals will interchange for the 71-74 B-Bodies. That linkage should work perfect. Unless it is a 3-speed wiper motor because I hear the bellcranks on those are a different style than the 2-speed. And should you go to a 3-speed, get all the switches, etc etc.. from that...

    need l/s seat belt 74 charger keeps locking up

    On my 74 I just pulled the back covers off the drivers side and cleaned all the mechanisms up really well, then coated the inside moving parts with some dry lube. It helped them out a lot and the belts don't lock as much as they used to. Hopefully it will work out long term. I didn't do the...

    318 4 barrel intake advice

    The factory 4bbl cast iron intakes are a very cheap way to upgrade to a 4bbl. But the Edelbrock 2176 is a better intake for the 318 imo. You can pick them up pretty cheap depending where you are at, just watch for cracks. I found a very nice used 2176 a few years back for a $100.

    What mufflers to use?

    Thanks for all the responses guys, I think i'm just going to clamp on these Flowmaster 50's for now and I'll see how I like them. After watching some more videos on youtube, I'm starting to lean toward the Dynomax's. They sound really good and they don't have a drone! Oh and I don't have to...

    What mufflers to use?

    That's a really interesting read, thanks for posting it! Sounds like a good idea, at least I'll only be out a little time that way. I hate to sell them for next to nothing since they are brand spankin' new.

    What mufflers to use?

    So about a year back, I picked up a truck off my buddy. He had torn apart the exhaust system to put headers (which I sold him) and dual exhaust on. After I got the truck, I just put single exhaust on and so now I have a bunch of extra 2.5in pipe and 2 brand new Flowmaster 50's. Now that I'm...

    360 build

    Sounds similar to the build I'm doing on my 360, not sure on your compression, but mine is coming out to 9.7-1 with some H116CP pistons from Speed Pro. I bought the XE268 for my motor, seemed like a good overall performance cam, but you aren't able to use the factory torque converter. As for...

    Passenger side glass

    Figures they'd show the wrong picture, I kinda figured that it would be a press fit deal like you said after thinking about it more during my drive up to classes today.
