Well I actually have quite a few other 440 blocks. I even had a 94 trailduster with a 440. You can pm me if you do really want it. But heading to bed now

Welcome aboard from Ohio.

Well if anything does, like I said I'd love that engine... :)

Oh I’m not questioning anything. Just wondering what it is. Won’t change my plans.

I used to have a Dupont Tovex sticker on one of my quarter windows.

Decals come off with a razor blade, go wild!! Mike

So it was originally a 4.10 geared Super Track Pack car? Those commonly have replacement blocks and motors. A lot can happen in the 2500 miles before you got it. And you said he raced it.

The new aluminum version of this is looking good so far and promising some rather lean numbers on the scale. How's about 2 ounces complete. Stay tuned as this thing gets closer to a full functioning aluminum mirror base.

If you are reusing the studs, put on nuts to save the threads and tap them out with a hammer. Just tap them into your replacement MC. I had to use JB Weld to secure them into a new MC with larger holes. Worked well. Mike

Years back, I carved and sculpted a skeletal version from the original mirror and ended up with a piece weighing in at 3.85 ounces. This was done by basically cutting off the sun visor anchors (red arrows) which in this case were not being used anymore. Then the careful sculpting began...

Does the engine pull a good amount of vacuum? What size drums do you now have? My 65 Coronet has 4 wheel 10" nonpower drums and a 67 dual MC. I can lock up the wheels if need be. Mike

You could probably have a couple 3D printed. I have no idea what it would cost.

They are plainly in sight.

If your 4 wheel drums work ok for your driving leave them. I would look at a dual master and booster set up. Dual is way safer than the old single system. There are companies that offer complete systems.

It might be the picture, but I don't see any defroster vent diffusers on the dash, either. It is a beautiful body style, though!

Got mine a couple days ago and I'm happy with them.

I froze a 440 like that in my race car about -35.. the waterpump expanded so much it rubbed the balancer. Popped 1 blockheater. Ripped the impeller of the shaft. Still good! Diggin out the fine brine are we?? :drinks:

I’ve never had any luck running lots of preload. I set it at .006 and let her ride on my own stuff. For anyone else I set it to .020. Kim

It's a snowy night and the Bills just secured a trip to the AFC championship next week, so I got a little antsy to see what goes with this mirror-gate stuff. Here's the original mirror base untouched, weighing in at 7.60 ounces.
