    8 year old new tires.

    A couple of burnouts may smooth them up. Rotate, then repeat. :steering:

    And got $300 for his 68 Rambler trade in to boot!
  3. 496 polara

    8 year old new tires.

    Flat spotted bad I would wager. Put max sidewall pressure in them and drive them long enough to get them hot and see if the ride improves. That being said you can use them around town but I sure wouldn't trust them at a higher speed. Until you are going to use it more leave them on. Long term...

    Pretty stout nonetheless. Best of luck with the new monster.

    Here is a question for the flat tappet cam guys....

    Johnson used to be the go to lifter. Have them checked and corrected for taper if need be no matter whose they are.

    header question

    I ran those on my 73 Charger for years. No issues. Just have to ask yourself do you want a painted header or a coated header?

    Camshaft sizing help

    The only way to be confident they won't hit is to measure. That being said I would be surprised if there was an issue on such a small cam. Lots here smarter than me,hopefully they will chime in. @PRHeads spec'd my cam and has forgotten more than I will ever know on camshafts.

    Here is a question for the flat tappet cam guys....

    While oil plays a role I think there are many available out there that remove that from being the problem. I believe having the lifters checked before running them for correct taper is the single biggest issue.Throw in too much spring pressure on break in and you have a recipe for failure.

    Camshaft sizing help

    I would think this would be in the ballpark and match up well with the rest of your setup. Hydraulic Roller Camshaft; 1959 - 1980 Chrysler 383-440 2000 to 6000 Howards Cams 720555-10 | Howards Cams I also think 1 7/8 headers (or even 1 3/4) will be plenty for what you are doing. You aren't in...

    Camshaft sizing help

    Do you mean roller lifters or rockers? If roller lifters do you mean hydraulic or solid? What is your budget? Hyd roller cam and lifters is cheaper than solid roller but still a $1000 not counting valve springs,pushrods,etc.

    Can someone smarter than me help figure out my projected compression ratio. 383 elcheapador budget build

    Those 452 are likely 88-90cc if they have never been cut. I guess the rest of the combo doesn't matter if this is just a temporary motor. If you have the matched set of lifters with the comp cam I would consider that one to hopefully ease any break in concerns. Sure either would probably like...

    Promaxx shocker 240

    Get @PRHeads opinion. He has likely seen a set or two and can at least render his experience. If I were looking to save a few bucks I would consider a cnc ported set of stealth heads.

    Promaxx shocker 240

    Spend the extra money.The trick flows are proven and work. Mine needed nothing out of the box and they were checked by the engine builder. $$$ is always a consideration but I would rather know it will work and perform.That is worth something. The Promaxx may be just fine but is it worth the risk?

    WTB Forward pattern manual valve body

    Looking for a forward pattern manual valve body for a 727 WITH low band apply. Don't want a reverse pattern and I already have one with no low band apply. Thanks, George

    New purchase, Plymouth but not a B body

    Car is awesome.Just some good natured ribbing about the seats. I love it and would rock it as is.

    New purchase, Plymouth but not a B body

    Change one thing......the tires lol. Hard to not like a 327 and a 4 speed. If you throw up on the seats no one will notice.

    looking for a good Carburetor fit 383

    Which Edelbrock is on it now? What makes you think you need a new carb? An Edelbrock 650 AVS or a street demon 625 or 750. The choices are endless so it comes down to what you are familiar with and can tune.
