After talking around I believe I'll just rebuild the original engine. Lot less pain in the butt while holding the originality and cool factor. I'll just save the extra coin and look into maybe doing a stroker to it. In the end I'd like the power of the big block but I've read more than enough on the...

Yea I had the heads figured into the cost, just forgot to list them. I'd like to get them opened up a little if I got the spare change.

A clutch is my bigger concern to hold up to big tires on 4x4

So while it can be done its better to stick with rebuilding the poly and biting the bullet on performance parts being expensive is what I'm getting. I think I may do that, it's just a lot of money to get some hp out of these, intake, cam, headers, maybe so block work. I guess at the very least regea...

What about the clutch then? Would i still have to find a 10 spline clutch and pressure plate for a big block? Then what would the flywheel be? The mechanical flywheel or a hydraulic type. In not sure if there's a difference or not though between the two like the tooth count or something

Could one possibly go to a mechanical style bellhousing and convert it to hydraulic? Perhaps a bracket holding a slave cylinder next to the clutch fork so it would engage the clutch fork when the pedal was pushed in? Or is that to far out of it? :shame or would it be a problem if finding a 10 spline...

Hey guys been awhile since I've been on last and I'm getting to the point of needing to pull my poly out to throw new rings and seals on it. While its out id like to maybe throw some performance parts on it to try and get some more ponies out of her but parts are not cheap whatsoever for those old b...

my 63 powerwagon has a closed large knuckle 44 and it has a slight problem. on the knuckle housing on passengers side on the arm that extends from it for the tie rod end the hole for where the tie rod end stud goes into is wobbled out and and i cant get an alignment done because of it. now my front ...

That sucks! Hopefully nothing to bad! It looks like its a fun truck. I like the paint scheme of it! Makes me want to fix the body on mine and repaint it the original blue but thatll be next summer

Well i still got awhile due to my most recent purchase of a new gun so half my money for the lift paid for that :lol: that just gives e more time to do research! :study and possibly start gathering parts slowly W20071 the group was started by a friend and i and he has a 63 buick skylark that he is a...

Definitly painting the mirrors a different color and the road outlaws sticker is this truck club at our school I'm not an expert on this topic, but do own a few W Series Sweptlines with both standard and large closed knuckle D44 front axles. If you go up 6" to "settle" at 4", you will have a signif...

I have three trucks haha the one in question however is a 63 w200 with poly 318 bored .40 over .10 over rods and main bearings, 2bbl carb, 4spd np420, front and rear 410 gears, anti spin rear diff, 1/4" thick plate steel skid plate that I made at school in shop class, 36.5x12x16 radial buckshot mudd...

Alright so I have some questions that I need clarification on. 1. Ive seen that 4"(for lifting) is when you have to start doing steering geometry changes. Does that mean at 4" you have to change stuff or, anything over 4" you have too change stuff? 2. Ive also read that to get 4" lift you have to ge...

rednecks of the 1920s haha

Then its a large wing nut ...

Funny stuff lol

That's what they said they were gonna put in it. My bet is is that they bag the rear slam the front with a 350 or 383 cheby. Probably automatic. Also probably a bright green with some black accents. Fat tires in rear and skinny front. Or it'll be bagged on front and rear made into a lowrider with 20...

Banks for the clarification on that! time to go see what I can find
