I need the precise distance between the block (440) and the face of a 3 ring ATI Super Damper. Block reference should be timing cover/water pump housing attachment face. Here is a pic (not mine) - is the forward looking oil pump mounting face on the same plane as the timing cover mounting flat...

How much material is around the pushrod holes on a Trick Flow 240 head? The holes are 1/2" wide and should work fine with 3/8" pushrods so when going to 7/16" pushrods I would need to open the hole to 9/16" to get the same clearance (1/8" total or 1/16" each side). Or did you make the hole even...

Instead of removing the inner springs when doing a new cam break-in it is possible to use rocker arms with a lower ratio. The Chevy crowd has some 1.3 ratio rockers for this. Are there any low ratio shaft rockers for BB mopars? Some claim that the stamped steel rockers are low ratio but I'm not...

I need a picture of a 68-70 clutch pedal assembly with the overcenter spring installed. Preferably a shot from above (want to see how much clearance there is between the spring and the bracket). Maybe a picture from the bottom when installed in the car does work as well. See picture for desired...

Here's my new mini starter. Anyone wanna take a guess what's so special about it?

What's the distance between the starter gear (at rest) and the flywheel/ring gear? Is it the same for A, B, RB blocks? same for old Mopar starters and newer mini starters? Would love to see a few pics of your setups! I've seen pictures where the distance between the starter gear and ring gear...

Posted this on forabodiesonly but this might be of help here as well (pictures are from a B-body anyways) I'm in the process to convert my car from auto to 4-speed and one of the necessary tasks is to set up the clutch linkage. I think the following lines might help others who are in the same...

I have a Lakewood scattershield (not mounted yet) and one of the big drawbacks is that you have to remove it when you want to replace the clutch. Has anyone used studs to mount the bellhousing to the block? I imagine that it would make it much easier to mount the scattershield if you have to...

When does the intake manifold become the choking point on the intake side of an engine with high flow cylinder heads? Trick Flow 240s flow 310 cfm @ .500 lift and when looking at the intake flow numbers posted on the Hughes website...

This has been in the works for way too long but now I got back my crank from balancing and I'm read to start the assembly of my new engine. Now is the possibility to change out parts without much headaches. What do you think about the ingredients or is there anything that's a mismatch? Car is a...

I ordered custom pistons from Autotec and specified 4 left and 4 right pistons. Gave them my valve sizes (2.19 and 1.75) and got these pistons. Looks like the exhaust valve pocket is radially oversized (same size as the intake valve pocket) making it a symmetrical piston - not really what I had...

I need to order custom pistons and need to provide the depth for the valve pockets. I know this is not a straight forward calculations as P/V clearance is not measured at TDC and full lift. My idea was to provide a general depth figure which would be on the safe side to allow a cam change later...

Hi, what actual length is the driveshaft in your 68-70 B-body (with 727 or A833 transmission)? I know it would be best to measure but I haven't installed my Dana 60 yet (currently running an 8.75) and living overseas would put things a few months back so I would rather order the d/s now. I want...

Does anyone know if 7/16 pushrods fit Trick Flow 240 heads on an RB Block? If not, how much clearancing is needed? I'd like to use straight PRs if possible (I'd like to avoid taper or double due to cost reasons). Thanks

Hi, I'm in need of a cam for my 505 stroker (TF 240 heads) and have narrowed it down to a solid flat tappet cam in the 245-250 @ .050 range (street car, 3.33 rear gears, 4-speed). Talked to Dwayne Porter and he suggested a straight pattern Comp Cams XTQ lobe (278 adv., 248 @.050, 160 @.200, .566...

I need some help choosing a new cam for my Charger as I'll be going from auto to manual. Got some great info already but I would like to see if there are some more opinions out there ;) Here is what I will have after the transmission swap: 70 Charger (4000lbs) 440 ci 10.5:1 compression (915s)...

I already e-mailed McLeod about this but never got an answer. Is there a difference between their 360951 and 360953 pressure plates other than the clamping pressure (2400 vs. 2200)? According to the website both pressure plate feature long style fingers with counterweights...
