If your going to change it all out, then why not just get the whole package. I got mine from Randy's Ring & Pinion with 3:73 ratio/ 489 (big bearing case).

It may just be me but if the engine's been sitting for a while I'd like to pull plugs just to see how they look, perhaps put in a fresh set and maybe just put a shot of Marvel Mystery in each hole if I'm seeing any condensation from storage...but again that's just me. If it's too much work just...

No need to pull the dizzy, pull the plugs, disconnect the coil wire and spin the engine over with the starter for a bit... oil will get to where it needs to be. Fire it up and have a beverage or two while you marvel at your creation :thumbsup:.

Sitting that long has spark and zero fuel getting to the chambers I'd check for blockage in the intake... maybe a mouse house or two

Probably cheaper than a tow truck call

If you really don't care about the rearend it's a cheap way to build a locker, did it many times on Saturday night dirt track cars. Never really had any failures at the dirt tracks but when we did it to street cars, welds had a tendency to fail after a while and the spiders just started beating...

I was thinking the same thing since moneys no object. Plenty of conversion kits out there to streamline the process....although I was really thinking the 392 with the Tremec setup will easily hit that HP mark your looking for.

Port matching is time consuming for sure and the dividends you see will mostly be in the upper RPM range where flow makes the magic. Making these stock BB heads breathe a little better takes time and patience but it will give you an edge over a stock cast iron head. The 906's above have major...

Geez what kind of seat pressure are you running because your cam lift isn't that crazy? Was it the same one that went south?

Royal Purple 5-30

I agree with most above, 3:55's. I feel it's kind of a sweet spot ratio.

Cam lobe separation (LSA) once you go below 110/109 valve overlap becomes an issue for your vacuum.

Not recommended

With the ole girl weighing in around 4000 pounds, give or take, there's no replacement for displacement. In my opinion small blocks work best in a lighter car (A body) but fail to impress in a B body. I had a 73 Charger with a transplanted X-head 340 out of a 70 Challenger... was fine once you...

Sounds like the lobe separation angle is too close, maybe look for a 110-112 LSA cam. Should also help with your vacuum issue.

That's a good lobe separation for the street. Should give you good idle with some bump and your vacuum wont be so erratic as with a closer lobe separation.

What's the LSA on this cam?

Go electric and forget about it

Hey for 30 bucks a pony, very reasonable from that perspective.
