Overall of head deck down.
Looking good!
Remind me what spring you've got? And ya'll had to shim it? stock valves, yes? What are the valve sizes? I forget.

The Eagle Hemi cylinder head arrived in 2009 with VVT on non-SRT Dodge passenger cars and trucks. As with the early head, the Eagle uses rocker shafts and 1.65:1 ratio rockers, but there are big differences in the size and shape of the intake port and the rest of the valvetrain. The Eagle uses 2.05-inch intake and 1.55-inch exhaust valves that are not only larger, they are also longer than standard. The rocker support is taller, and the valve-guide support boss sits higher on the top side of the head, moving it out of the intake port. The Eagle uses a larger square port like the 6.1L that flows a massive 331 cfm right out of the box.

0.400 300 180 60
0.500 323 181 56
0.600 331 183 55

I'm trying to fnd my notes on the shim/install height. Stock valves were more that enough for what I needed.

Back from the dead!
I'm getting my engine back shortly. It took forever, but it was a really cheap job done by a friend and I was very slow about pushing.
I'll have a refreshed 6.1 shortblock ready for mockup on a stand shortly. Everything is ready minus the inevitable few missing bolts here and there. I feel that I can have a dressed longblock within about two weeks.
Wow...that sound as deadlines go wooshing by!
We're assembling the shortblock this weekend lol.

Also, I hate my taxi cab dash. It's never worked and when I went with Painless wiring in the car I never even bothered hooking it up. I was about to wire a bunch of auxillary gauges to keep tabs on things, but I'm not doing that any longer.
Dakota Digital has come out with a very nice 68-70 Charger/70 Road Runner unit that you might look at. Priced around a grand, its the same price you'd pay to restore a stock unit but comes with all new guts and multiple system input capability.

That's pretty cool! I think this will be getting ordered next week. I was in the middle of customizing a panel to put gauges in, but there is something to be said if you leave the dash looking clean and original.

I really like that...finally something worth cutting up my dash over!
On a slightly less than ideal note, my crankshaft tone ring is a no-go. Time to find another one in a hurry. Thanks to Mike @ OST dyno for rushing to help me out...but time to keep looking.

This is partially a rant and partially a PSA. Most people pull apart 6.1 hemis and add a 4.080 crank to make a 426. Up until just recently, you had to carry over your crank toner ring from the forged 6.1 crank and put it on the new stroker piece. That leaves a 6.1 crank without a ring or bolts, and basically creates a paperweight. So I had several 6.1 cranks to pick from and the one that I ended up sending out to use on by 6.1 was missing a ring. I thought no big deal...I've got others. Well none of my cranks had the ring. So I was up a creek come last thursday. Engine was ready to be assembled and we couldn't do a thing without it. I started calling... 13 calls later, I ended up with only two helpful people. Mike @ OST who took my call on Saturday and was very helpful. He went to his shop on a sunday and pulled a ring from a 6.1 crank. Unfortunately it was damaged and the teeth were dinged up. No go, the only way to replace the ring is to pull the crank and I couldn't take that risk. He was more than polite, and we parted ways. The other shining star is Tom Molnar of Molnar Cranks. Top notch guy. He is the ONLY vendor out of 5 that I left a message with to return my call. The owner of the company of all people. We had a long conversation and he sold me his aftermarket ring to use. $60 plus shipping and I was very happy. He saw the problem created by mopar wanting to sell you the ring as part of a $800 crankshaft (only specific to forged 6.1 cranks) and adapted his own version. Its on the way here now. So if you end up like me with a damaged or lost tone ring, you're not out of luck. Molnar sells a 24 tooth 6.1 ring that they produce in house. Only difference is that is use a different style of head on the bolt. I've also just recently found that mopar sells a bunch of parts for the drag packs. Mopar PN P5155041 I cant confirm that it comes with bolts, but if Molnar didn't have what I needed, I'd order this one. http://www.jegs.com/i/Mopar-Performance/312/P5155041/10002/-1?parentProductId=

My Manley 4.05 crank came with reluctor wheel installed. So I do have a 6.1 crank AND ring still married. I would've sold the whole shebang to ya though.

Out of curiosity, how well did the Manley crank balance out?
