He was a great man! Now he's up there with all the other great Mopar guys!

@HPP I'm with you brother!

I love it! Thanks for posting pictures!

Really, it's good to hook up a temporary mechanical gauge like this one: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/equ-8242?seid=srese1&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=1045333163&gclid=Cj0KCQjwjvfSBhDpARIsAEiOpSvfVI-0Mhcc353BiSQiR72EgmF_j9RtewhToRFjLPJ9f3GwIOrMpM4aAmoREALw_wcB I have multiple mechanical...

Does the temperature go the 3/4 of the gauge only in heavy traffic and then goes down in normal driving speeds? If so, everything is probably OK. Like mentioned above, it's an old 50+ year old gauge. A real temperature reading is needed to determine if it's getting too hot. Also remember water...

Welcome to FEBO from the desert! Nice sounding 71 Challenger and 2015 Scat Pack! You're going to be asked for pictures, so better post some! 😁

Using the 7/16-20 bolts with red Loctite and torquing them to 65 ft-lbs and they coming loose? Just asking because if so, I'm not sure of a fix.

Be careful with aluminum cylinder heads and Cometic MLS gaskets as the difference in metal requires the engine block surface to be pretty dang smooth usually requiring the cylinder head surfaces to be decked on the block. The Felpro 1009 composite gasket is more forgiving with similar metals but...

The more I think about it, the metal from the worn lifters and camshaft is still inside the engine. I would remove the engine and completely start over as the entire oiling system of holes and galleries need to be thoroughly cleaned of sludge containing steel. Sure it's only a 318 and not a Hemi...

Yes, here's the IMDb link: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://m.imdb.com/title/tt41568917/&ved=2ahUKEwjEqZ6hqeKVAxVgKUQIHQ72NEEQFnoECCsQAQ&usg=AOvVaw2b3wyouFejUW3jypeqriZC

@Fordication has unfortunately also gotten screwed! It sucks!

@Mr Cuda , you're absolutely right! It costs more money and time going after jerks who mess things up! May of 2025 some pos sheriff deputy ran into and totaled my son's first 2015 Challenger Scat Pack. Out about $15k even with the insurance paying out. Since my son wasn't injured, no lawyer...

You really can't go wrong with a stroker kit, but since you're in Japan and it's hard to get machine work and parts compared to here in the USA, taller pistons will work.

The head bolts are sold separately! https://store.440source.com/Bolt-Kit-Cylinder-Head-12pt-Trick-Flow-Heads-Only/productinfo/109%2D1530/ And you'll need special pushrods when using the Trick Flow Heads. I'd call 440 Source and make sure you get everything you need. Phone: 775 883 2590

Yes, if the cam thrust plate was left off (they gave it to you separately?), then all the oil will just go back into the oil pan bypassing the heads, lifters and cam. Path of least resistance for fluid flow.

Go with a Howard's camshaft. You can get one around $250 in just about any lift you want. And use lots of camshaft assembly lube. And check each lifter hole for fitment.

That is wild to think about! They're the same color but do look different like you say. Thanks for sharing!

Will be interesting to watch when the movie comes out. I have all of the silly Phantasm Movies just because of the Barracudas.

It really isn't that hard, just time consuming because you need to clean all the sealing areas up (timing cover, oil pan, intake mating surfaces, etc.). @Challenger RTA list is very good. Go to your local hardware store and by a 7/16-14 bolt about six to eight inches long! Install it into the...

Very nice! It will serve you well as a daily driver!
