I got a used block that ended up having a cracked cyclinder wall that machine shop never saw. Ran great until heated up good then temp would shout thru the roof and blow a head gasket. Finally got bad enough found it. I have rebuilt this thing twice and got 12 grand into. Doing a Gen III...
I went with a blackbird 392 and was 17k. It comes with a cam, heads and intake pushing 650 hp. I have had a 440 from Caroline machine engines with nothing but problems. So i am leary of these large companies that build everything.
So what was you angle on you trans. Was it down 3.4 degrees and did you raise the rear end angle 3.4 up to match? I have the same trans but can't get it any higher up than 2 degrees down. Factor is supposed to be 2 degrees up and the rear 2 degrees down. I have had a lot of vibration...
Now can anyone point me to a new 6.4 hemi. I understand they are on back order. Stellanis just decided to back to the hemi's so I am trying find a source for one. I talked to Randy at Bouchilon and he was told it's a possibly 2 to 3 months but if they are going to need them for cars and...
I have come to the conclusion I should go with a 5.7 or 6.4. The additional cooling needed for the hellcat is more than I want to get into. I going to drive on the street some strip, no car shows. With that in mind are there any issues with gettting drive angles setup. I have a 440 now with...
Going to pull a 440 and put in a modern hemi. Tried of issues with old technology. So I am trying to decide between a hellcat 717 hp or a 6.4 Are they intercoolers a problem to install. I saw a thread where I guy said there are 4 intercoolers that have to be mounted but that was the 800 hp...

Have resolved some of vibration by putting air in my rear tires. Couldn't believe it. But I am running 18" low profile tires. They were down to 29lbs and caused the vibratiion. Aired up to 36lbs and smoothed out. I can be the simplest of things.
It's been running fine and had leave in a garage for 4 months then took it out for a drive and when I turn on the headlights the motor and all electrical shuts off. Turn off lights and it comes back on? This car has a big alternator with dual radiator fans, ac, stereo with sub. So there is a...
K frame is now a QA1 tubular. I had the car painted and the frame was bent some, all new fenders, inners in the rear, roof, trunk floor pan and k frame. Long story short, I put the TKO in around 12 years ago replacing a automatic. Since then vibrated, multiple drive shafts. Replace rear end...
I was under the impression I would be able to get the tail of this up to create a better angle for the drive shaft. Also the center link rubs on the oil pan. Finally just had a channel welded into the oiil pan to give it room.
