    MSD troubles

    Okay my fellow c body friends. I have ran an MSD ignition on my 68 383 Monaco for 10 years or more and it has ran fine. I just put a 496 stroker kit in it and it's all hooked up but no juice at the coil. The MSD box has power going in and it also pulses. So the distributor is talking to it but...

    727 Trans fluid

    Quick question gentleman. I had my 1968 727 Torgueflight rebuilt, soft parts only everything else was in awesome shape. I am going with a different converter stall speed due upgrade on the engine. So the trans is empty and so is the converter. What is the amount of fluid necessary to assure...

    Engine build

    I'm not looking to do any competition racing with it. They are small but to go bigger I would have to get different wheels with offset. Not really interested in doing that now. But you're right. To get the power completely down to the ground I would go bigger.

    Engine build

    Thank you gentlemen. This confirms what I needed. I had built a 440 for another Mopar I had. Went 30 over with flat tops, same upper end, compression was real close to the same. Didn't have any issues with the 93 octane no ethanol gas. I occasionally ran a octane booster. I was on the fence with...

    Hello gentlemen, I've decided to redo the 68 Monaco 383, number match, with the 496 440 Source .30 over, running the dish pistons, stroker kit and Edlebrock 2086 upper end kit. Should have 10.4 compression with this with an 84cc combustion chamber. Also running 3.23 sure grip. 750 cfm Holley...

    Rod bearings

    Thank you all for your answers. I have looked into the 440 Source stroker kits. I have decided to pull the motor and take it to the machine shop and have them go through it to see what they think and go from there. I really appreciate your guidance and help.

    Rod bearings

    Yes I did. While the pan was off the first time I removed the pick up tube and there was some black crystallized something along with bearing material. I was thinking it was normal from being a 1968 383 that had never been cracked. I replaced the lifters first thinking that was the noise, but it...

    Hydroboost conversion on a '65 Fury 3

    Way to think outside the box. I have been looking and researching for my 66 Polara 500. Did you have to make the mounting bracket at the firewall or is that stock?
