Thank you very much for that!

Has no one put an ATI balancer on a Hemi and still used alternator, P/S and water pump? I can live with a non stock looking crank pulley as long as it is black, just as long as it puts the belt in the correct location. Thank you!

Overdrive? Gear vendors for example. That would get you into the sub 3 range. Just an alternative.

I'm about to order pars for my engine. I will order a ATI damper, but which one should I pick, the 917470E or the 917122E? The 917122E appears to be the better one.. What crank pulley should I use? I want to use parts that looks as close to stock as possible. I need a 2-groove crank pulley for...

Thank you so much for the replies! Well, I want the aluminum hemi because of the weight savings mostly. I don't really mind that the block can take three times the punishment, it's an added bonus. I know, I can save a couple of thousands on the iron block, but in the end that is not so much...

Thank you guys so much for your replies! I will look into each and every one. As stated in the original post, Tim @ FHO will only build 572 Hemis that easily surpass 700 hp, which I don't want. How will you drive around town with a long block? :tongueflap: Thank you for the offer though!

Hello all, Can you guys recommend a good Hemi builder to assemble an all-aluminum Hemi long block? I want around 600 hp from this engine, no more than 650-ish hp. I contacted Tim @ FHO and he only builds 572s and that is out of my range hp wise. I don't want to build a monster cube engine and...

Thank you all for your replies! It's been awhile since I posted here last time, should have ordered the heads by now but I have had to put my money elsewhere. Can anyone recommend a good shop that will sell me a cleaned up Stage V replacement head that will support the 600 hp goal using quality...

To rule out the lights and light switch do this: Take a multimeter and set it to read resistance (Ohms). Disconnect the battery (always do this when working with wiring in a car) Take out the connectors to the head lights and turn signal lights and connect one of the wires to the multimeter to...

Well, thank you all for your contributions! I guess there are as many answers as there are racers/engine builders :) and we don't always agree on what is the best (iron/aluminum). I will be using Stage V aluminum heads when the time comes to finish gathering parts, mostly because of the weight...

Got some time to work on my car today. Removed the carb and adjusted the float level. According to my rebuild kit, the float should rest parallel to the casing. There was no other information. I adjusted it to be parallel, by bending the float down a little, which I think means it was too low to...

This may seem like I dumb question, but how should the float be set? What I mean is, is there one float level that fits all engines? How do I know when the float level is set to the correct level? Does I only affect the risk of flooding or is there anything else that is affected? I don't know...

Thanks for the reply! I only changed the gaskets and needles but I did a full cleanup as it was really in need of one.. I didn't check for cracks and I didn't adjust the float. Will check the float level. The dripping didn't start before it suddenly died at idle. Thank you!

Hi, I have some problems with my Carter 9626 on my 340 engine. The problems started last autumn, when I drove the car and let it idle down when down shifting, the engine would die. The only way to get it started was to give WOT and crank. Otherwise it would just stand there and do nothing. Gas...

That is what I was looking at a few posts above... But it got rejected. It does not mean that much to me that it looks stock, but they look kinda funky with all those bolts. As long as I can use stock pulleys, or 440 or some aftermarket pulley, I can live with it. Thanks for all the replies! Per

Great! Thanks! Is there any damper that looks even remotely stock that is good? :) Or are the dampers from ATI and innovators west fully compatible with stock pulleys and other hardware? Thanks! Per

Thanks for the input! I bought a used Scat crank from a member here so I have that covered for now. I have another question regarding harmonic balancers. I have no idea what works and what doesn't. This is for a street Hemi that will see little to no strip. Are all balancers okay to use? I was...

That is NOT the same transmission. The Passon 5-speed is a completely new transmission. What you are referring to is his OD transmission which is basically the same 833 with a different gearing. The 5-speed is not yet in production.

Hi, I need some advice on a Hemi build. First of all, it is going to be a 472 Hemi that is going into a 70 'Cuda 4 speed car with a shaker. I want something like 5-600 hp. This will mostly be a street driven car. My pocket is not that deep so please take that into consideration when...

No problem! Yes, it is very common here.
