'67 Camaro E/SA redo

HandOverFist · 01-11-2015, 05:38 PM

Last minute change...found I had a small journal crank after ordering rods. Found a large journal crank local on the cheap already prepped for a Stocker so all is well.

My first attempt at a crank scraper...if I did it wrong I'm sure I will hear about it soon enough. I made plenty of clearance with a bench/die grinder then used the metal for a template on some .030 graphite filled teflon sheet.

This will be a first for me...can't wait to give it a workout.

Interesting piece of engineering. I like the physics incorporated into the design of these things. What is the distance from the axle mount to the pivot wheel as measured in a line on the floor? I'm wondering if this will fit my 68 Mustang. Speaking of, is this for the Camaro or Mustang?

Approximately 22.5" Dale. This is for the Camaro with a experimental engine installed...not enough hp in the Stocker engine to warrant it lol.

Rich, have been following your build, car is very nice. We are slanted towards the 1st gen Camaro and yours is one of the cleanest examples, good luck on the T/T with the 383. Tony Tosto #3050 B/S

Do you have the a dyno sheet on the 383 ? Great combo- torque monster that likes to rev.

No dyno on this motor, but this same combo has been built many times in our area with the same components. They say expect hp numbers between 600-700. Matt's Speed Shop (formerly Mike's Speed Shop) in Murfreesboro TN assembled the engine.
