good call, thanks for the reminder. My intake and carb spacer will not work. I will probaly store the hood until I'm ready for a complete crossover. Already have a weind tunnel ram and twin carb sidepull setup as garage art from last makeover....
Thinking of changing from fiberglass hood scoop to my steel hood with two scoops.
What is the correct identifier for this hood so i can buy the correct underhood kit? ... N96 option? / R/T Hood? / Ram Air? / Ram Charger?
Some of the underhood kits show for 69 coronet but look like they...
69 coronet n96
Did you ever solve the hood problems? I am thinking of changing from the fiberglass hood single scoop to the R/T hood and scoops I came across. What else is required besides the 3 piece underhood box kit? Air cleaners, seals etc...?
69 coronet
took a break from the wife's 68 charger and finally got steel wheels on the coronet, got a little leak from the gearvendors and sounds like valve noise.... it's always something
Just finished the body work and paint on the wifes 68 Charger, used hot rod black for the stripes. Have to paint it under the carport (tarps) as I do not have a garage.
For that money, I would pull a head and check the piston top for bored over size. If its 60 over of course this engine is done and walk away. You hope for standard bore or even 30 over is fine...guarantee its gonna need bored to the next size, with those bolt on parts, someone ran this thing...

Thanks for the input from everyone. The built 440 comes from the shop on Tuesday and its going into the 69 coronet (500+ hp). I just picked up a complete 1971 440 yesterday (still has std bore!! 68k original miles) with steel crank (thin harmonic balancer?) for $400 and its getting...
Both engines are complete and after many beers I believe I will find a 1970 dart to throw the 408 stroker in and call it "the wifes car" and I'll shove the 440 built up into the coronet. that leaves my 72 charger without a powerplant but gives me something to search for.......... this car...
I have a 69 coronet and two engines. A fresh built 440 with enough extras to pull 500hp. I also have a 360 stroked (409) with roller rockers / cam, edelbrock rpm heads etc.. and it dynos 516.6hp at 5800 rpm (509.7 tourque at 4700 rpm)
For the life of me I cannot decide which engine to stuff...
