The main sticking point is shelling out for a new transmission, but right now it's a 318 with a 3 speed manual:wtf:. I wanted a 4 speed anyway, so it doesn't change the plan too much. Plus it's a non A/C car so that's at least one accessory I won't have to worry about. I think if it were a 360 I...
Thanks for the link, read through the whole thing over the last few days, looks awesome. I actually have a 74 RR so it's nice to see a cool 73!
I think I am actually going to pivot this a little bit since I am now planning on building up a 383 for my roadrunner where previously it was going to...
This is the only picture of the rusty standard bore one that was on the listing. Pretty hard to tell what’s going on with it since the one bore looks like it was cleaned up and seems like it could be okay? Asked for more info on that because it’s just too hard for me to tell if it’s all surface...
This is the only picture of the bores that was posted on the one that is already 30 over, by the way. I sent messages to both asking for some more details.
What do you guys think the odds are that any given 383 block can handle 70 over? Don't need anything super specific just wondering if I'm...
Hi all,
I found a good deal on a 1967 383 block close by, but it's already bored .030 over and the cylinders are pitted a bit and probably will need another .030. Do you think the block could handle another hundredth over that to get it to 4.32, and would I then be able to use standard bore 440...
Hi all,
Just wanted to get some thoughts on a stroker build I'm thinking of doing. I'm going to be getting a new Jeep for driving in the winter, and I'm planning on swapping in a 46re and 5.9 magnum from a truck into it. Originally, I was thinking I'd leave it a stock bottom end and just put a...
This is what I had always thought and what the wiring would make me think is happening. I've been reading about points ignitions, though (which I don't have any experience with), and found that the authors of the articles I was reading claimed that the ballast resistor also reduced the voltage...
I’m pretty savvy with electronic ignitions and the wiring for the systems in our cars, but I cannot wrap my head around something and I feel like I must just be missing something obvious. If the ballast resistor was originally implemented to limit the voltage at the points of a mechanical...
Beautiful Challenger! One word of warning on the 73-74, I've got a 74 RR and I love it, but the suspension is almost entirely different from the 71-72, so aftermarket support is relatively limited. Expect to spend a decent bit more money on some parts for a 73-74 than a 71-72.
Then maybe you should correct the stuff that you apparently now know you said incorrectly that velrob is planning on using in his system?? We're trying to help him here.
Either way, I figured I'd try to clear up some more stuff here but I'm out again. If you're going to act like you're trying...
This is basically the correct understanding of what an ammeter does (it measures current flowing between the battery and alternator sides of the system), but now you are contradicting your arguments from earlier. "If I had an working ammeter, that sucker would be pegged deep into the C zone and...
What other wires will you be running, though? ALL of the stock system is on the alternator side of the ammeter. There is a splice in the harness that everything comes off of. You will need to get the power there somewhere.
If you are saying you are just going to isolate the ammeter from...
Woah, what's your plan here exactly? Be careful. If you are doing what he is saying and connecting your alternator directly to your battery and then keeping the rest the same you will have problems. The output to all the accessories is on the alternator side of the ammeter. If you are putting...
