help with a mopar

[bwolverton]

I'm considering building a Mopar motor for an A mod but cant seem to find anyone else that has or does. Just trying to get an idea...of what I need to be able to compete with the chevy's and fords.

[dirttrackrocker]

It can be done. A friend of mine is a die hard Mopar man and I run against him weekly in IMCA. He is a top runner here in the Eastern region.

[bwolverton]

any idea what he's running as far as block and different things like that?

[dirttrackrocker]

I'm not a big Mopar guy. I know it's a 340 block. I think the heads are W2 Race Heads.

[racin6mod]

you can put a 4 inch stroke crake in a 360 block and get a 408 cuin motor with a good cam and ported rhs heades 600 hp/500 plus ib-ft of torque. not bad for a mod motor and those rhs heads are cast iron.

[bwolverton]

I was wondering how well one of those would do the 408. But then I went to looking for a cast head and couldnt find anything compareable to a 23 degree head.

[Mopar 89]

I have a smallblock from Bill Richardson of Ram Racing engines Lynchburg VA. Its a 360 with EQ iron ram heads. Bill is a Mopar only engine builder and in my opinion second to none. I ran 28 races this year and won 8 races and the points. Turned the motor 7500 every race and only changed the oil. Never took the valve cover off or changed spark plugs. Drove a couple of chebby boys nuts.
