    Estimated 1/4 mile - 71 Roadrunner 340 4 speed

    I'm not getting rid of my 340 and selling it, it's numbers matching like the trans I was thinking a 440, how hard would it be to pump one up to 550-600hp/tq. Do you think stock cast bottom end with new pistons, either ported or aluminum heads, and a good intake/carb choice, headers and cam plus...

    How cold does it have to be before it cracks the block?

    How cold, but for also how long at that temp? We stored a bomber stock car in a field over winter once and forgot to drain the water. The block cracked and it maybe got into the high 20's at the worst. Don't chance it.

    Roadrunner column same as GM?

    I have pretty much every receipt from the build, but it’s from the build shop.. so the line items are kind of vague. “Install steering column” etc. It’s at the tranny shop getting a minor issue fixed but I’ll examine things when she gets back. The steering wheel I want is STUPID expensive so I...

    It sounds like the van axle would work. I am not familiar with every dana so actually look at it and count the cover bolts. 10 bolts for a dana 60, I also assume is a semifloater(no wheel hub) and the tube od is 3.125 (measure it). A 8 3/4 can take a lot abuse for now. It's probably not a...

    Farmer tries burning coal for the first time

    We haven't had coal available around my area for decades. Probably 50 years or more.

    Issues with coils

    First coil lasted about 600 miles and got wet. I believe that could've been the cause. Second coil was on a motor that did 200 miles then was removed and stored for 6 months. The climate here in Ireland is cold and damp so I'm wondering if that's a contributing factor

    I get it but so is going fast and you can’t go fast until you get a slipper clutch and a race trans or put an auto in it. Once you let off a trans brake button, you’ll be hooked!

    Issues with coils

    that's the same coil I run with no issues and the same coil you were previously running. I'm not sure the answer to your question (will let others chime in), but if you blew multiple coils with no ballast resistor, what makes you think it will be different this time? The epoxy filled coils...

    PST or other torsion bar experts - question

    thanks for responding! Glad to hear your feedback. If you can't tell a big difference in ride quality, can you at least tell a noticeable difference in front end handling? Does it make the front end not feel so heavy with a big block? I'm running Bilstein shocks with 1.00 bars and a big block...

    Issues with coils

    It was a replacement 8222 MSD Resin Blaster coil. Where do I install a balast resistor when using the MSD 6AL box and distributor? All instructions say to bypass/remove the resistor and have full 12V when cranking and in run position

    Issues with coils

    please remind us which new coil you just installed and if you installed a ballast resistor this time. If you didn't, you should.

    Agh, I just can't bring myself to swap in a 727, the 4 speed is just so addicting, it's like a drug

    Full manual 727 w/trans brake and lots of power. DOT drag radials count as a street tire, but you’re gonna have a rough go with that 4spd. Been there, done that, went 727 and haven’t looked back.

    So in 1970 a 440 with an automatic could not get the A32 package. Am I reading that right?
