Happy new year! The progress has been slow in the past month. The winter has fully come in Norway, the snow is falling down and so has the motivation. I have gotten some new parts so i will give a quick update on how the project is going. After trying to seperate the pistons from the rods i...

Kudos to 440source for quick delivery, ordered this on Sunday and it was at my door step today! the work on the cylinder heads can finally begin, new adjustable rocker arms. these are the ductile iron from 440source with new valve springs, retainers and locks. will update when i get the cylinder...

A stroker kit would be dope, maybe for the next project when i get myself an A body mopar!

What about valve springs, is the original valve springs going to end up coil binding? This helps my budget alot

The other day i got the first batch of parts to start working on the engine, i am still missing the new camshaft and pistons before any work on the engine can begin. The transmission is still in the car so that has to come out this week, then i will install the shiftkit and get the gearbox...

Okey, i am buying the rope seal instead. can't remember, but i am quite sure my crank had some tear marks after the seal. any idea on how to install it correctly so it doesn't leak?

Thanks!

the one that was in the engine was rope seal, i am gonna try and change it to rubber seal. any thoughts on what is better?

i will try and measure my current rear end and see some specs from the 8 3/4 rear end, if it is fairly close it should not be a problem mocking it up and fabricating some new mounts if needed. i think the cordobas or chargers came with a 8 3/4 so parts must be available i guess. too bad that...

okey, maybe smarter to start looking for a more powerfull axle. does the 8 3/4 fit right in or is there some modifications needed to be done?

Is the 8 1/4 rear end really that weak ? will definitively keep my eyes open for a 8 3/4.

Hey, new to this forum and i wanted to make a post about my project this winter and the progress i have so far. My car is a 1977 Chrysler Cordoba with a 400, 727 and 8.25 rear axle that i bought earlier this year, the car is in good condition except for a few minor rust spots here and there and...

Hey! First time poster from Norway. This is my first v8 1977 Chrysler Cordoba with a 400, 727 and 8.25 axle that i am rebuilding this winter. Bought this earlier this year and had a blast this summer with the car, but like most mopars this engine was leaking oil bad so the engine, gearbox and...
