I have been working on a 73 challenger for a friend. Installing a painless wireing kit and a affordable fuel injection kit new dash and gage set. He had a guy rebuild is motor for him and that's where the fun started. I got the car running after installing the kit. now this is my problem the more the car ran the worse the motor got back firing threw the intake started missing just went to ****. I started pulling plugs and looking at compression the best out of all 8 cyc was 90 worst was 65 psi on a cold motor hot motor 70 to 30 on this ? REMAN ? I started doing some test with the compression tester I doing a leakdown test first and you can hear the air passing the rings luckily not pass the valves. so I know the rings are shot or on wrong. this is where I need help! I loosened the rockers or the rail what ever you want to call it. And retested the compression on that side and it went from 80 to 120 so I know some thing is holding the valves open too it has solid push rods with hydraulic lifter CAN YOU DO THAT? next the lifters are stock with a aftermarket cam CAN YOU DO THAT? WITH STOCK SPRINGS? I pulled a head to have a look it is 30 over 383 but notice the pistons are flat top but they do not come to the top of the block at the end of the stroke IS THAT WRIGHT FOR A 383? What in am trying to find out is if any has any ides what this clown did the motor is a 69 383 are they a way some parts got mismatched from different years on these motors and I have two motors out of some old motorhomes that are 440"s WILL THE PARTS SWAP OFF OF 383 TO A 440 INTAKE AND DIS SO I CAN INSTALL THE FUEL INJECTION KIT ON THAT MOTOR ? PLEASE ALL THE INFO I CAN GET WILL HELP
