Hi - now have a new bottom end so full tranny build will be needed to handle 650 HP - 3000 stall for sure!

Well fate has smiled and I now have a 410 cubic inch bottom end. Full Scat crank and rods, have the Dyno sheet at 650 HP. Need to decide if I should use the solid roller cam in place or use my bullet hydraulic roller? Engine has only dyno hours but has sat for 6 years. Checking bottom end this...

Hi I used the compression calculator online from Summit and got 11.2 to 1 with my specs. C6 auto trans and converter is yet to be determined. Probably 3000 but will fire the motor and then check idle characteristics etc. Thanks

I looked at the heads that had been messed with using the crane roller rocker and small to big stud kit and decided against using it. I found a 1970 set of small chamber heads with chambers between 62 and 63 cc's - see before pics. I had them planed and cut for studs and guide plates as well as...

I found some issues with the rocker arms and am trying to iron them out. I also found a set of 1970 closed chamber heads and think I will just get the current engine running as is and start building a new one over the summer for fall installation. I will post pics once I start the build next...

Put mine on a couple weeks back - pics attached - 245 and 275 on 15x8 magnum 500’s

Finally got them mounted after looking at them in the garage for 3 months!

Looks Great! Who's cam and lifters did you use? Thanks

I have also found a 4 bolt block that has been tanked, painted and is 30 over. Cam bearings are installed as well. The caps all seem to be 4 bolt however someone previously told me that only the center 3 caps were usually 4 bolt caps. This one seems to have 4 bolts on all caps - is this...

Hi - the quote for machining is $ 300 and the shop owner has done work for me for 30 plus years and runs 6 second dragsters. Add the cost of studs and guide plates and I am still under $ 600. This also allows me to change the cam as I have no idea what is currently in there. I may have to buy...

the rockers were all “double nutted” and when trying to remove the top nut the studs came out of the block. I then removed all the passenger side ones and red locktited the stubs back in. Looking at the small threaded end in the block I decided to remove the heads and have them machined for...

No not yet - priced some through Kal but have not ordered yet - priced 245x15 front and 275x15 rear - 1200

Good Afternoon - Okay now I am confused! Could these be aftermarket pedestal mounted roller (tip only) rockers that were installed by the previous owner? I bought aluminum valve covers with "351 Cleveland" cast into them and they will not sit down onto the head properly I suspect due to the...

Hi Randy - my new magnum 500's x 8" rims are here and I am looking at the same decision - have you bought anything yet? If you have I would like to chat. Bill

Hello - I have attached the block casting number and a picture of the head with an "R" stamped into it as well incase that helps with identification. Thanks

Hi - I removed the started and the block is D2AE-CA probably no surprise. date code is 3A29 and I will pull a valve cover as soon as I can get some new gaskets. Head has an R in pin punch marks on rear but I am trying to to read the rest of the numbers and will post soon. Thanks All!!

Good Morning - Thank you for that detailed response as well as the picture. I was told the entire engine was a transplant but who knows. I will look at the casting numbers today and post them once I have them. Thanks again for the great info!!

Thank you for the info - car is on a lift so I will look in that area this morning and see what I can find for casting numbers and post them.

Good Morning - I am looking for a little help with my 1973 Mach One. The car was originally an H code 2 barrel but has had a 4 barrel swapped in. The heads are 4 barrel as denoted by the 4 cast into them. There is no adjacent little bump so I assume they are closed chamber heads. I have no other...

Thank you for all the replies and information. I ordered 15 x 8 Magnums yesterday with caps and nuts. They are a couple weeks out so I will now start looking at tires. The first picture below is not my car but what it will look like with the 500's on it. The second 2 shots are my car with the...
