Origionally My 72 Satellite Sebring was running poor with not much Get up and Go
It's a 318 auto dual exhaust with flow masters The first thing I did was a Mopar Performance Ignition Upgrade with an Orange ECU Ran much better with eaiser starting, but still no Get up and Go A week ago I put on a stock cast 70 340 intake with a Carter 625. Kick down did not have to be replaced. This made a noticable difference in performance, and MUCH better in driving and throttle responce. I still wanted more 0 to 60 mph blast Then I swapped the 8 1/4 2.71 rear with an 8 3/4 with a 3.23 WOW what a difference . I used an 3.23 because I also like to fly down the highway at 75 mph. You can do that in Alberta with out getting taged. This is now a GREAT running MOPAR. A 318 with some power My gas milage is kind of crappy now because of my heavyer right foot. I am sure It will be better the the origional. If any one thinks of hopping a stock 318. I highly recommend these Upgrades Not too expensive Fred. |

You are right I think I got bit by a bug, a very big bug with big teeth The Mopar Bug For now I will just drive the car around playing with the setup, trying for better street performance. Next I think a cam and headers. Not too much of a cam I want it to be very streetable Fred.. |

Shave them heads
If you are thinking of a cam don't forget to shave the heads to increase your compression ratio. Anything more than a slightly over stock cam will kill your engine without more compression.
