Geetting to put the final touches on. All the stuff for the oiling system have finally arrived.



Dual line swining pick up going in this time.



Had to bring the motor mount and headers in to make sure evrything would clear. It's tight but it works.





Final install.



Lines are all in





With any luck we may be on the pump this Fri. Couple other motors are slated before mine can go on but if all goes well

If not then Tues

Hope it runs as good as it looks . Outstanding !!!

Looks good,Bill! Why use mounts? A plate would be better...I think you will be happy with the oiling system!

Looks good Bill. Keep an eye on your balancer. I had one just like it. The fancy ring that bolts to the front via the 6 small screws came off on me and the balancer seperated from the hub.

A plate is not out of the question. Still have to see how everything will tuck into the car.

The first thing we did when we got the balancer is remove all those screws and add Loc Tite.

So far so good

With all that fancy hardware, PLEASE coat the headers! Or at least get a can of silver BBQ paint...LOL!

We've lived through the issues, I think I can say for all of us...BEST OF LUCK this time around!

Any chance of a time slip this late in the year back there??

Looking good. Hope all goes well with the newly freshened bullet.. BTW I know all about parts headaches and feel your pain.

Bill, the motor looks AWESOME!
You have a lot of time and money invested.
Im only questioning 1 thing...
the Fram oil filter ?

Ive personally witnessed a mishap with one and have read some bad reports here on moparts about them as well.

no disrespect to you or the builder.
just an FYI

A FRAM FILTER?

No wonder your motors keep blowing up!

Dang! Doug beat me to it

I'll run a long MP filter when it goes in the car

I had this one in the garage so I figured at least use it on the dyno and save a little where I could.

It's time you bought a system one. You're at a power level that you need one.

HOW DEEP IS THAT PAN? LOOKS NICE, A LOT BETTER THAN THE OLD ONE YOU WERE USING

Motor lools great Bill!

Money well spent on the Charlie's pan and Milodon pump and pick up

Been thinking about ditching my HP-1 for a System 1 or other style screen type filter. Probably save some coin in the long run

Hope to see some numbers posted this weekend
I'll be at the Columbus swap meet this Saturday so I won't be able to attend the Dyno session this time

What's the part number and capacity of the Charlie's oil pan. I'm tired of whacking the Milodon super stock one on my Duster........

Bill

Have you thought about pre filters in the oil lines. Now that you have a nice new pump it'd be good to keep it that way inside.

I bought the same pump for my car and pumped some debris through it about the second or third time out. Really chewed up the inside of the new pump.

I bought two inline screen type filters from Summit and installed them right at the pan. Pretty small and easy to do. Big enough screen that the don't restrict oil flow but they'll keep those big nasty chunks out of your pump.

I might be able to post a picture later today, or maybe somebody else already has one?

Dave did all the go between with Charlie on the pan so I don't know of a part #. I can tell you 10 quarts will be what were putting in it and I asked that it be about 3/4 of an inch shallower than my Milodon so it was more level with the K frame.

Never heard of them before


I'll look into it

Here's a link on Summit and a pic of how I installed them in my pan.
