    Torque converter stall speed

    The other way to look at it is you need the cam to be its power range Before locking the converter So for example if the cam starts making power at 2600 rpm I would use a 3000 stall . the other factor is a cam rated for 2600 rpm will make power sooner in a 512 than a 383 so maybe 2300 rpm so a...

    1 will be enough for just the pump even changing the steering box & pump 1 should be enough

    Anyone running the Passon 18 spline OD gearset? I am trying to make a final

    I have converted at least 12 cars to the factory 833 OD & I have had them in my own cars as well & don't mind them at all , 4th is 71% reduction so for 4.10 =2.91

    71 340 OIL CONVENTIONAL/SYNTHETIC

    Joe Gibbs or Brad Penn make oils designed for flat tappet engines , agricultural oils are rated SJ which is the right formula , I usually used 10-40w but the zinc/ ZDDP content is far more important than the weight of the oil used .

    Top Dead Center

    You can place it just inside th spark plug hole so it doesn't get crushed , just remember there is about 5* at TDC where the piston does not move

    Top Dead Center

    There are also piston stop tools that thread into the spark plug hole that work as Adam described that are not expensive

    ATF+4 Transmission fluid opinions?

    ATF + 4 seems to be un-nessisarily expensive , it is needed in newer transmissions but not the Tflight , F type would be the best choice IMO

    Initial carburetor setup

    The combo of a 110 * LSA allows too much overlap , long tube headers will create a suction behind the exhaust leaving , in a manifold this is not possible , it will run far better with a 112* lsa or more

    1971 Grille on a 1970, 72 73 74

    While not exactly hard it is expensive , the header / grille support is unique , the front fenders either need to be modified for 4 headlights or use the 71 only front fenders , the front valence is also unique as it has the front park/turn signal lights in the front valance which is unique to...

    k member engine mounts

    All V8 engines can use the same K frame with the one exception being the Hemi . As above the 340 /360 use a different left mount from the 318

    Compression test on a 440 Six Pack

    I would expect to see 125-140 but consistancy is far more important as the post above .

    Gasoline fumes on my Cuda 440

    Easier to tune a 6 pack if you think of it as a 4 bbl , I have been tuning them since 77

    K Frame

    I would weld in extra support in the steering box mount then powder coat it semi gloss black , I also did mine . Triangulate inside the steering mount .

    Replaced six pack for Holley EFI on a 440

    I agree generally an EFI system is far better but not all systems work well .

    Gasoline fumes on my Cuda 440

    8 PSI can over fill the carbs , you should be in the 5.5 PSi range , might need a regulator , have you checked the float height , it has to be done with the car running .
