    Need advice 383 build

    383 is an amazing motor, I have built many, I actually have one in a 70 2 wd d100 (original dude truck) 727. I would use the stock rods, if your rods are good use them, the best part about building a 383 is low cost, so keep it that way. the heads really depend on what it will cost you to get...

    Crank bushing for manual conversion

    He is going with the roller bearing the bushing I have wont go in his crank with out some machining so that roller bearing is the best bet. I think if he dials in the center and gets the tranny mounted perfect it should be fine.

    Air compressor mods?

    80s a bit low to kick on, put a psi gauge at the end of your longest run with a hose on it, then check your psi when you open a line at 25% flow, so if you have a 3/8" line which is 3/32 I have a tee that I made with a cap and a 3/32 hole drilled into it, a gauge and valve. So I can test a 3/*"...

    Shop floor coatings/treatments?

    Im not sure if someone mentioned this but I will NEVER mess with coatings again, just have it polished and if you want a color stain it. It will be there forever. Every floor I have had done we polished and stained, acid washed, and they held up great. The only down fall to polishing is, it...

    For a little compressor like that you can do a few things to help with performance and ease of use. 1 is an after cooler that was already mentioned, plenty of threads on how to accomplish this another is to install a small starter, that pump is using the psi switch as a high amp switch, this...

    Amp meter elimination

    Hey Steve, first the reason your top is not "hot" when the key is off is because mopar uses a lower amp circuit to actuate the motor, kind of like an ignition switch, that small switch could never handle full starting amps, so they use a solenoid or relay to handle the amperage. Next, if you do...

That motor had a roller cam (thmpr) if I am remembering correctly, a...

    1970 B Body Gauge and dash issues

    This is the worst, I hate rally dash wiring issues, especially with new parts. That being said, I have some experience with them. First thing is if hot wires are bare/rubbing grounded metal parts, it is only a matter of time before you have a "Car-BQ", I had a buddy who kept marshmallows in his...
