RUNAMUCK Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Jolly good show old chap! one day (hopefully a long time from now) I'm going to inherit another hardtop. Any leads on why it seized? I am getting very mopar fizzed after helping the old man fit up his 340/418 SBM to his VF hardtop on sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNAMUCK Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Also, once you have torn down that nipped up teen, I have a lead on VERY cheap overhual kits for SBM's. I scored gaskets, big and and mains bearings, and hastings moly rings for $112usd. plus postage. And I'm up on the play with pistons too. The is an SBM Magnum piston, which has a wide enough distance between the pin bosses to accept an LA conrod. (An issue apparently) Which has a 1.755 compression distance. Much much better than the eye water-ingly low compression of 1.720 that most bargin basement psitons have. I even have some 40 over slugs with a 1.668! Which is so shit I wont even put the motor together......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am getting very mopar fizzed after helping the old man fit up his 340/418 SBM to his VF hardtop on sunday. not sure why its siezed, was going to have a chat more about the history behind it when the guy has a bit more time, has been sitting since 1985 so might just be lack of use. ahh.....unfortunately the purchase of this used up all my spare $ so im probably going to have to give OSN 2014 a miss now...... i just knew id kick myself on a daily basis if i didnt buy it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUNAMUCK Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Noooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You still have enough time to save for an air fare to CHCH. And then you can bum a ride with someone. I intend to be moparing. (one way or another) So fly down, And I'll give you a ride. Nats without Cletus, would be like crate day without beer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
63Ragtop Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 plan= pinch the stock carb/manifold/exhaust off the coupe and fit to the ute, sell ute. rebuild the 318 out of the coupe, fit carb/manifold/headers off ute to 318, put in my white VG. do panel, paint, half cage, tubs, etc and put turbo motor in coupe, do skids this sounds like a sound plan, this thing will look and go awesome, pro street FTW!

Liam-B Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 VE front clip would look awesome, would make it so much more like a dart! You will need to shorten the VG front clip and or change the front support from memory. (VE guards bonnet etc are a bit different obviously) Maybe just get it going first them think about it haha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUNAMUCK Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I always hated undoing that nut under the rear of the gaurd. They're a total cunt if you don't have a tube scocket. (Which I never had wayway back in the day) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cletus Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 yeah they are not much fun to get at, the panelsmasher that pooed up the lh guard didnt bother putting the nut back on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
