I'm a newbie to this forum, but not to hot-rodding AMC Engines.
I built a 401 in 1999 with Edelbrock MPFI that was for a SB Cheby. I was trying to get custom chip from edelbrock and explained how easy the swap was. Just had to weld bosses on intake and machine fuel rails.
Anyway, WOW this site is great, best I have ever seen.
My 401 in the Scrambler has been running great ever since so haven't been looking for parts. Now I see I gotta have the timing cover, pulleys, oil pump bypass, alum. heads etc.
I've just bought a Jeep Gladiator with AMC 327 and thats my #1 priority. Looking to make the AMC 327 be all it can be.

I click on the IMG* button and won't let me insert pics.
Gladiator I found is clean & rust free:
67 J300 with 15,550 org. miles
AMC 327, factory PTO winch, HD44 & full float 60. T98Q 4 on the floor.
Needs: PS, AC & 4 wheel disc Hydroboost
I've want to have an intake from 304-401 adapted to fit this old motor and bench flow those old iron heads.

Welcome to the board. Lots of good AMC'rs and knowledge here.
Unfortunately, you'll have to use a web host like Photobucket to host your pics, it's not done on the board.

Red welcome aboard. The board waits a couple days and ten posts for you to be able to post pics...we had a rash of spammers this year so things changed a little. Cant wait to see your pics!

After getting the Gladiator and AMC 327 built up, I'm going to tear back into the 401 with everything Bulltear's got.
I did the oiling mods and considered the dual swinging pickup as I have AN fittings with stainless hose and endura fittings everywhere else on Scrambler, but no one had the oil filter adaptor plate and I thought the -12 90 fittings would hit frame.
So just got the Milidon pan, which fits terribly and leaks.
Guess this will count as post.
Bulltear Products (unbeliveable) and this site is the best one I've ever seen for AMC's.
Used to visit the AMC forum years ago, was nothing like this.

Thanks for the link's, I've never been a computer person until I realized how fast it could find & get old parts.
:(: :idea:
Still can't post pics of Scram, Glad or 327 yet... forum won't let a newbie, maybe Monday. i should have my 10 posts by then.
I've been on site all day reading........
Looks like some extremely knowledgable builder's on here.
What should I do for HP and realiability to the AMC 327 ?
I like to build it right and have good HP and be able to make a road trip without worry. Plan on getting an old school slide in camper and towing CJ behind the Gladiator to CO.

It all depends on the budget :idea:

Are you Bulltear?
I really do admire your machine work and being devoted to AMC.
dream 327 -and wait for my Jeep and 401 motor shots.

I started the company and do 99% of the design work but I am not Bulltear...thanks!

I hear ya, you're the face of Bulltear, and the leader usually determines the quality of support team.
From the products you are making I'd say you have an A+ crew.

MC, I think you've got another fan!
You're almost famous!
