Everything on the inside was fine, bores are square and the crank mic'ed out standard. So in went some new rings after a hone job and the bearings are replaced. Stuck in a 340 cam with the 441 lift 218/228 duration and a pair of J heads off my 340. Chrysler rated this engine with 8.4:1 compression and I'm calling bullshit on it. After measuring the swimming pool sized dish on the piston that sits .094 in the hole and a 72CC chamber head I come out to 7.6:1. Thats fine with me cuz I hated paying for 94 octane on a car that I drive like an old lady. Probably should run on a mix of 87 and water.
So far the total is about $525 including the price of the T-quad I bought off E-bay.
The 360 thats in my Dart now will sit in my Challenger till all the wiring is done.
No parts got slung. Hopefully it will rain Sunday and between me and wifey we can slap a couple hundred miles on it while soaking up some warm weather on that balmy 48 degree day.
