  1. The hunt for more vacuum

    The hunt for more vacuum - In search of more vacuum

    Well the search continues. Adding the vacuum accumulator did in fact help with my low vacuum issue but the lift and lobe separation isn't vacuum friendly plus it gives my EFI fits. The brakes did work much better upon the initial peddle jab but if you had to go back to the brakes immediately the...

    The hunt for more vacuum

    Working the problem of border line vacuum for the dual diaphragm booster. My cam shaft is a 110 LSA Bullett, [email protected], 576 lift w/ 1.6 ratio. and at idle I'm pulling just a tick over 17" with the car in park and no load on the engine. As soon as I drop it in gear the vacuum drops to 15.7". So...

    TTI headers, big block - spark plug wire routing - pics

    I fabricated some Z brackets out of some 20 Ga. SS and attach to the lower VC bolts. Welded some studs on the top flange for some thumb nuts to attach the looms (those black pieces with a knurled head). Works great, keeps the wires away from all that heat and a snap to remove for cleaning, plug...

    Retimed 440 with dial back light

    Had one from the same era.... worked great until I loaned it out to a friend who gave it back without a word. Didn't know it was DOA until I needed it...a$$hole

    Yup there's a lot of rich folks up here in Salt Lake... too bad I'm not one of them, guess I need to keep donating to the redneck 401K lotto... :realcrazy:

    if you had to pick one.......

    Kindigit Design in Salt Lake if money was no object. Those guys build some sweet rides but $$$$$$. When I first moved up here, I had Dave and his sidekick come to the house and quote painting my Charger before they we're TV stars, body work was already done, 30 grand just to paint it, 50 to...

    Exhaust size vs hp

    Talking with the engineers @ TTI they said unless your pushing over 600 HP 3" pipe is a waste of space and money, 2 1/2 is fine for most street applications....

    Who has NEVER had a cam or lifter go bad?

    I've never lost a cam or lifter, but with today's cams and lifters it's hit and miss, you never know whatcha got. With flat tappets I use a lighter spring load for break in and afterwards I go to the higher spring rate.... the guys that I've known that lost a cam during break in ran too high...

    first start in 15 years, what oil?

    I'd change the oil (10-40) pull the spark plugs and squirt some Marvel Mystery in the cylinders, let it set for a few beers then turn it over with the plugs out. This will also help pre-lube the engine. Screw in some fresh plugs and see what happens, zinc additive would be my recommendation as...

    BEST 68 CHARGER ELECTRIC HEADLIGHT DOOR CONVERSION?

    The trigger wire (green wire from the box) hooks up to the green wire on the hi/low beam floor switch. The red power wire I hooked up to an aux. fuse block coming direct off the battery. I added the fuse block because I had other components needing 12v. I put the control box in the same place...
