  1. I was wondering if you found out what the reason was for the tach pegging out? I have a 73 that just started doing the same thing, only it would do it for a day, then the next day it would read fine. It seems to be more and more sitting on the red line as the days go by.
  2. Did you ever find out what the reason for the tach pegging out with the key turned in the on position?
  3. What was the outcome of the missing at high rpms?
  4. rsicard I totally agree, I plan on saving as much weight as I can safely. I still want it to spin 8500 - 9000 rpm. ( not everyday) SRP & Mahle ( I really like the Mahle pistons ) make some pretty nice pistons. Internally balanced is the only way to go. (I M O)
  5. Thanks Bigbore 468. This will be my first aluminum block on the street / SCCA /strip. I'm somewhat familiar with the 377 & up to 434 motors. I'll be running a good size piston for sure. Yeah I'm wanting to see some RPM's especially with this light of a car. It should be fun.
  6. Funny you should say that, I was playing with 352 cubes just last week, with a solid roller cam, (thinking of the LS firing order) with 210 cc runners, however, I think I'm going to try EFI not sure yet. I like the RPM's (so does the combo)
  7. Yes, with that short stroke and a NA motor for sure. I have been playing with many different combo's on the desk top dyno. I'm at the cross roads of how much power, NA or Turbo. The desk top dyno is very handy, however the turbo side is not as accurate as a NA motor.
  8. Response to jap tin. I bought a Brodix aluminum block, I just got a large 327 billet crank, looking into rods & pistons right now, as well as heads. I just want to see what others have done & what kind of problems have been addressed. Response to DR. Hunt. I can understand wanting to go to a lower elevation. I would love to go 18 degree, I don't know much about them, other than offset lifters & rocker arms, I think there is a 2 piece intake which looks cool. However, I'm no welder so I will more than likely go with the 23 degree heads Thanks jap tin & Dr_Hunt. for all the info
  9. I only have the block & the car right now, I was just doing some research before buying some heads, sounds like the 23 degree AFR's would save a lot of time, I love the flow #'s the 18 degrees produce. Thanks for your time & info. DR_hunt I was wondering when your next trip to Alb would be, I would love to take a look at your car if you don't mind.
  10. Hello I was wondering if any one has put a set of 18 degree heads on a 70-78 v-8 swap? If so what headers are you using? Did you have to run a header adapter? Thanks.
