That too. Are you using a stock pump? I haven't got that far yet. PST had the best deal on pitman arms I could find.

Yeah stock pump to start. I bought Moog Pitman arm, Idler Arm, and Lower Ball Joints.
I'm thinking I'll buy a new pump as mine hasn't been used since mid 90s. I would hate to have to make a mess changing it out if it were bad. Hell everything else is new.

Long story, even if I get a new pump, I have to re-use the old cap/dipstick. I was thinking re-man or just re-man - re-seal my old one.

Did you do any port work on the Stealths? What cam/intake did you choose.

Yeah, they did a lot of work on them, not sure on flow numbers.
HUGE Crane Hyd Roller, I am picking up a smaller Hughes Hyd Roller as back up..
Mopar M-1 and a Performer RPM..
But switching to a Speedmaster Single plane for the Injection system..

My guess 575with M1 560 with RPM, Hope I'm wrong and it makes 625!

Must beat 69 GTX... Kidding.. My goal was 1 HP per Cube and streetable.. Cam mybe a bit large, but the builder wanted to start large since he has never done a Mopar 540 (Lots of 440 - 500's) and wanted to see how it would react to the bigger cam.. If we weren't doing the brake in and Dyno, I would have gone a bit smaller...
I would think with the 540 you would want to stay under 6000 RPM Also that cam calls for 12:1 pistons. But hey you never know till you try. My cam was 236/242 on 112 LSA with a 630 net lift with the 1.6 rockers. I forgot yours was 540, 600hp should be no problem with ported heads. Probably about 650 ft lbs tq. That's the fun #. Lets you boil the tires at a 30 mph roll!
