I considered having some old lifters cleaned and refaced to use again. I still might for milder builds but for the new cam for the red car, I went with a hydraulic roller to alleviate the anxiety.
Is it possible to slip the cork gasket under the timing chain cover on a 440 with the motor all together? Just trying to avoid having to disassemble everything just to get that piece in if possible.
I just ckd mine
About half way down the rad mount bracket. stamped in the face
But near impossible with the radiator in the car , The horns are in the way doesnt help
Its just a 3 digit number . as example , mine is 2 66 I think
$60 and a Fram filter :rolleyes:
Back in the '70s we never heard of breaking in a cam. I don't know how many. We removed the radiator, water pump and timing cover, intake and valve covers and threw in a new cam and lifters, sometimes not even new lifters! Several times we did a set of lifters...
No real progress since the weekend, but very happy with the progress made over a year and half of weekends, basically stripping the car down and building it back up including swapping out the 318 Poly with a freshly built 440…still work to be done and more surprises to come!
I'm a mopar guy but, my best friend in hs had a '70 SS396 4speed chevelle, red with black stripes, centerlines w/front runners, custom red and black velvet buckets, she was a beaut!
