    Lets choose a blower cam

    Wide lobe center and extra exhaust duration. My blown 340 from memory is around 245/255, 540/560 112 lca. For years it had 214/224, 447/467 114 lca. The bigger cam with a looser converter was worth .7 in ET and 5 mph. Drives the same on the street. Even when it had a tight converter it drove...

    Gen 2 Hemi, heat riser or no heat riser in manifolds?

    Don't worry about it. Chrysler designed the Street Hemi to drive in all kinds of weather right down below the freezing range. On a hobby car any slight reduction in cold engine driveability won't be noticed. I drove them for close to 40 years and I don't think I ever had the heat tubes hooked up.

    Gen 2 Hemi, heat riser or no heat riser in manifolds?

    Well, yes, it's going to run different until it gets up to driving temperature. It will be a little on the lean side.

    440 with 8 bolt crank 4speed to 727 ? How do I do it

    Pictures are a little tough to see, but it looks like a "Dakota" roller bearing was pressed into the hub. This was a common fix for cranks that were not finished for a standard .940 pilot bushing. Pull the whole assembly out, and the converter hub will fit.

    440 with 8 bolt crank 4speed to 727 ? How do I do it

    I posted on your other thread. Just take the pilot bearing out of the crank. What is all the gray stuff smeared around the bolt heads? I hope thats not ARP thread lube. If it is take it apart and clean it all off. I use Loctite.

    Dads 68 charger!

    Starting to come together! I had to burn a patch in the torsion support. The AMD stuff fits nicely. You have to cut and modify to get a good fit. And you can never have enough vice grips doing this stuff! I’ll fit the hood, fenders, valance, and whatever I can to make sure it’s right.

    440 with 8 bolt crank 4speed to 727 ? How do I do it

    I can't see what's going on in your picture, the resolution is too low. You may need to pull out a pilot bearing to make room for the torque converter snout.

    Do they make 8 bolt crank flex plates for 727 big block torque converters with the 11 inch 11 1/8 size hole diameters?

    Just take the pilot bearing out of the crank. What is all the gray stuff smeared around the bolt heads? I hope thats not ARP thread lube. If it is take it apart and clean it all off. I use Loctite.

    Yet another underappreciated late 1970's Mopar.

    Remove all that stuff that is in the center of the crankshaft, and the torque converter snout will fit in there.

    For Sale: Not Mine 1969 Belvedere wagon RR $39.900 Not mine

    Too bad they took it to a dealer. Would probably be a lot more attractive price if they didn't get the used car guys involved. Really neat car though.
