Billet main caps and arp bolts and I’ll turn rev limiter down.

ARP bolts im making enquiry on what caps were used.

Looks like collet broke for some reason and the valve let go. Pretty unlucky but it did have average standard rockers. I’ve got another motor coming from nsw I hope I get what is promised. I will slowly rebuild my 440 over time so pretty interested to see how your build goes!

Nice I’ll be right behind you. Not sure exactly what I need yet but if we can salvage something between us might be easier than ordering from the states. I’m in Western Australia and will probably get my engine machined at gallways in Pinjarra

I understand there is no support it’s a risk but I don’t have the luxury of off the shelf parts and aside from what I can learn here not a lot of experienced mopar people to seek advice or carry out work. It’s going to be a costly project and a challenge keeping the car on the road but I’ve...

Good morning. Yes the coolant was surprisingly rusty I flushed the radiator and put garden hose on heater lines with engine running the first weekend I had the car. Things started to pop out at this point. Lack of coolant at all in radiator, oil leak coming from rear main seal which I ordered...

Yeah pulling one head and reassessing it. I need to make sure there isn’t any chunks of steel in the engine though which is concerning

Yeah I’m bracing for the worst mate. The engine did cut out instantly I have Holley terminator efi I did wonder if it has a safety shut off of some kind but need to research more.

Thanks mate I will post more photos once the heads off.

So I recently purchased a 1970 roadrunner and after only driving it half a dozen times and less than 300 miles I’ve blown a valve coming out of a roundabout at around 3000rpm. Devastating is an understatement. I am yet to pull the head off this weekend to see how much damage I am in for. I...
