Fuel system or carb is where I would start. Namely the bleeds.....

I knew from the start exactly why you used a 5.7 cam, more low end torque which you want in a truck. Hear that, Chrysler/Daimler/Fiat/Stellantis Engineers? The 6.4 you spec'd in the 2500's: you're doing it WRONG.  Might as well suggest a 318 Camshaft in a 340 with Zoomies, if you Two really want to hear how stupid you both sound? Embarrassing, run along, Twit,  you don't know Fan from Flywheel let alone more than Chrysler Engineers.

Dealership. Ignore those meaningless "not responsible" signs they put up. If they take care, custody, and control of your vehicle, and they damage it in the process, they are liable.

Last night I was waiting for my daughter as she had a few things to get at the store. This woman comes out near where I was parked (about 50' away) & gets in a new 2-door Charger - when she started it, that's when I really noticed it. Sounded like a pretty loud hemi starting up so I'm thinking - hmmmm - is this an M-plate car with a Hemi? I rolled my window down & heard the rumble & as she slowly drives away, I hear the whirring of the electric motor. What an unbelievably STUPID thing to do with an EV! Make it sound like a V8! I had heard about this before, but this is the first time I ever experienced it - I guess I thought they wouldn't REALLY do such a stupid thing!
What absolute BONEHEADS! TOTALLY AGREE!!!I used to put baseball cards and playing cards into the spokes of my Stingray bike but I was 10 years old, so I think I had an excuse

Beware of the dropped center link. It's almost 1" wider than stick. Doug Good to know. How could they get it that far off? Are the hole spacing dimensions off that much, or just over all length? Maybe it is a universal bar to fit all Mopar bodies, A,B,C, and E

Another FYI: the fuse box clips can be a source of intermittent connections if they are corroded at all. The glass fuses themselves can be bad, but appear visibly good as well you didn't mention what car it's in but they all should have a strap supporting the back of the radio. This is where it should get its ground from as well as support the weight of the unit  keep us posted

I like the idea for sure!, who makes pistons for the 4.375 stroke? I haven't found anything Race Tec, Auto Tec 714-903-4362, Ross Pistons 310-536-0100 CP, Carrillo Rods and pistons 949-567-9000. These are all west coast companies, I'm sure there are others back east also

I thought it may be emptying the bowls so I bumped up my fuel level with no change. It is keeping fuel pressure down track so is the problem just volume related? Can it have the same pressure with less volume? I think about fuel volume being determine by the inside diameter of every part of the fuel supply plumbing from the pickup in the fuel tank to carb needle and seat diameter. The smallest passage is the limiter to the volume  I messed up when I built my pump gas duster, I installed a 10 micron fuel filter between the stock gas tank welded on sump and the 275 Magna fuel electric fuel pump fed by a #12 line to the pump and feeding a # 10 line to the front of the car to a 100 micron fuel filter. I had a Innovate LM1 wide ban on the car and had jetted up the stock type six pack and it made no difference on the wide ban readings or the spark plugs appearances. I have seen similar results when having the needles and seats to small or the fuel line I.D. to small. You know there is a fuel supply, volume, problem  Now comes the hard part figuring out exactly what or where it is  You can do this

I called at the end of last year about a digital 6+ and they told me as long as the date code on the back was, I believe no further back than 2015 they could fix it.

Also needed a way to merge the single heater vent output into a dual path, and PVC plumbing from Home Depot supplied the hardware for that. Then, also needed a way to mount them up behind the dash, and several hose clamps welded to the back of the cowl did the trick for that - ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/jBADIu8.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/RQ0mTUg.jpg) Lastly (for today), got a dual port fitting (Nitrous Outlet 00-01705) to house both the fuel pressure warning ight switch (Stewart Warner SW76063) and the Marshal 100 psi fuel pressure gauge (Marshall Instruments MSB00100) - ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/pMTycC9.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/nlxyCeg.jpg) ...mocked up the dash, connected the wiring, and did the final fuel pressure test and everything works as intended: the warning light is on/closed at/below ~37 psi and off/open above it, giving me a simple alert if fuel pressure ever gets wonky - ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/atJk734.jpg) ...then I came in to get some breakfast and get ready for work...

With efi I build the timing table slightly inverse of the torque curve. Timing before and after peak torque is higher.
Would I compromise horsepower for torque if I had to run locked timing? No.
You're going down the track running max average hp.
Your comment points to the fact that percentage of cylinder fill is not constant, nor is rpm and lord knows, how many other variables. So the fastest way down the track might be a G sensor, combined with a program to seek the best timing repeatedly, like every .01 seconds? I bet someone out there is doing it. If I can think of it, i am certain many others have. ProStock class comes to mind

This is a pic from Saturday . Video is on fb . I did service the front shocks maybe 6 or 8 months ago . This is 1st video i have seen in a long time . Looks like its holding up ok not porpoise like it used to . At least to my eyes and watching half speed . Radial PBR . Caltracs HD mopar springs , small block t bars Any tnoughts appreciated . https://www.facebook.com/61558685641366/videos/945762367757386/Tex I think your problem is using the multi-leaf HD springs. I tried to use Cal-Tracs with an old worn set of SS springs and my car would porpose really bad no matter how tight I set the rear shocks. I replaced the SS springs with the Cal-Trac mono leafs and bingo instant smooth and easy hook. Gus Same here. Tried Cal-Tracs with SS springs and simply did not work correctly. 1.36 60 ft. after going to their split mono's on a 275 drag radial.

I’ve got several roller cam blanks from the late 70’s early 80’s bought from Direct Connection. They are unground lobes. I sent one off to Bullet and they confirmed they were Enderol blanks. They are a harder core than a standard flat tappet but you can use a regular oil pump drive gear and not the brass gear that wears out. They think they would work great for a mild or street roller application. I’ve got some old Hemi cams from the same time that are not billet that have the same markings. Anyone have any experience with this?
