I'm replacing bearings, crank and some rods on a 6.1 Hemi. I bought the engine with a spun rod bearing. I will put it in a 1971 Sport Fury and use a A518 overdrive and 3.91.
I will run it all stock except for induction and exhaust and will probably use a MegaSquirt MS3 Gold Hemi controller.
My Sport Fury will serve as a fun daily driver and I was thinking to lower the power band some by advancing the cam a little.
Anyone done this on a 6.1?
I would like some input on this.
Thanks!
