    8.0L V10 - worth rebuilding?

    Depends on what it means and what it's worth to you. If it runs good, drive it. If you are bent on rebuilding it, I would think you could find a V10 2nd hand with much lower miles and just swap.

    First time owning a dodge need help with distributor

    couple of things. Turning it counter clockwise will advance ignition timing (or "initial" timing). You advance (counter clockwise) to go "before" top dead center. I would start around 10-12* advanced. If your plug wires are starting to pull, you can move the plug wires on place back all...

    Just bought my first Ram... now what?

I've had a few magnums over 200k miles and purr like kittens. In fact, 4 years ago I bought a '01 2500 with a 5.9 and it now is about ready to...

    No start

    Need a little more info. Does it even pop or backfire through either the carb or exhaust when you try to start it? How did you test it for spark? Bottom line is IF you have gas and a good spark, then I'd go straight to timing.

    318 timing set

    1/2 inch slack on 1 side of the chain wouldn't be bad

    Is it possible to go from a 5.7 Hemi to 5.9 Magnum in a 2003?
