Good news ! Great that all the other components survived. 👍 Duddie will now be competitive with the Green corn field Dart from up in the Great White North 👍
Cornfield dart LMAO 🤣😂🤣😂
The pistons will be a little chunk of change, but you already got more than you bargained for!! Can't really be mad about that .. Score Duddie!! Sorry DW.
Yep the parts list is growing
That sucks about the pistons. Every time I see someone removing a came it reminds me of the old Operation game 😆 🤣. Looking forward to seeing that motor going back together. Take care ✌️
I am too it should be a ripper
Good baseline… Looking forward to seeing this go together.
408 stroker goodness!
Stock valve springs, nature's rev limiter
I'm going to need different valve springs for more Armadillos
You better be worried lol 😜
@@DuddiesAdventure floating armadillos are never a good thing.
Stock valve springs limited my slant 6 on many an occasion... mud...or burnout :)
The only way to know for sure that the valve springs are stock is to check the springs pressure.
Very true... They look pretty stock when compared to stock valve spring though. Micrometer says same wire guage and same number of coils as stock
Well on the plus side now, anytime you need to ask duddie's help on anything, you can begin the conversation with "remember that time I sold you that sweet stroker engine for cheap". LOL
He better lol
The cam god's have smiled on y'all....
It will definitely be rehomed
Yee Haw!!
OK for us extreme Southerners...what in Sam Hell was that inlet manifold? Weird looking piece of apparatus... Just needs pistons...could be way worse!! Congrats Duddie and well done DW
That's the standard fuel injection intake for Magnum 5.9s, trucks, Dakotas, Durangos. Guessing they'll pitch it in favor of a carbureted intake.
That's the Magnum "beer keg" intake it is not being reinstalled
Hey now.....those are high performance forged ashtrays........
10$ do I hear 20......
Price goes up after he wins🏆
That motor was a hell of a score . Were any of the top piston rings pinched from that damage? When u buy new pistons what will you do about the rotating balance.
Undecided on the balance at the moment but chances are good we may have to address it. We will have to see what the gurus say when we make some parts selections
Nice score on the cam, shame about the pistons. I'd still call it a win though on the overall score 🤘
Yep overall it's definitely a win
2 Epic Builds !!
You know it
It got late in the afternoon, and it was beer thirty
Exactly
I figured it out, you help Duddie like I help Blake 🤣🤣🤣 and Duddie wears the crocodile hunter shirt 😂😂😂
That's not a knife, this is a knife
@@DuddiesAdventure almost spit a beer 😂
I would have used those pistons. But I would weigh those pistons make them all way the same those little chips missing on the top shouldn't hurt a thing as long as they all weigh the same. I have used pistons in the past like with no problems just balance the pistons on opposite side. I wouldn't be afraid to use them it's not going to hurt the compression enough to notice. Unless they are Cracked not just chipped. I bought a 350 that someone use Nos on it a burnt down the sides of the pistons but not down far enough to be close to the rings a never had a problem with it
It is hard to say how bad they are but below the chunks that are missing it looks and feels like a crack
Valve springs 2 week for the lift cause the Pistons
yeah I agree. I believe it also huffed a bit too much nitrous in a former life
Someone was feeding it the Nitrous with a little to much timing by the looks of things
For sure
Was the block decked at all or did you check to see how far the pistons sat in the hole?
Pistons were very slightly below the deck. We found some pistons that should keep compression around 9.5:1
Is the crank balance the same as a magnum 360?
We are digging into that currently. The harmonic balancer and flex plate are definitely Magnum balance. I am calling eagle again on Monday to see about the crank
@@TheDodgeWhisperer I believe a magnum 360 can have 2 different balances, a truck engine, or a crate engine.
