This is aggravating! I rebuilt my A833 gearbox and used all new gaskets from brewers and I filled it with oil and there’s a dang leak around the reverse detent housing to case gasket. So now drain all the oil back out to remove the sucker and try to figure out how to be certain it’s sealed this...
Anyone using a McLeod dual disc clutch? I installed one and McLeod states the operating range for the diaphragm pressure plate is .440 to .460 for proper plate departure. I’m using the factory linkage and torque shaft and clutch fork and have around .750 of throwout bearing travel after contact...
1969 426 hemi
Could someone give me some info on the throttle cable length and also need to know the CTC measurement from the primary throttle return spring bracket to where the spring attaches to the carb linkage.
so I got the hemi back on the run stand for the second time after repairing the rear main seal.
the first time it was on there it cranked every time I hit the starter well now that I have it back on the stand sometimes when I hit the start button the starter just grinds instead of moving on out...
Been looking for a clutch for my 69’ bee it has an 18 spline gear box behind a 496 hemi stroker. This will be a street driven car and currently has a 8.75 with 3.91 gear. I came across
this clutch in the link below and I don’t have any experience with a dual disc clutch and don’t have any idea...
I know this subject has been beat to death and yes I have read all the recent threads on here and moparts and dodgecharger about the different ways to fix this and the opinions on what works. I would like to do this one time and be done with it so the question is should I go with a rope seal...
So i got the hemi fired up on the run stand a couple weeks ago. I had a rear main seal leak so back on the engine stand to pull the pan and repair seal. had a small leak on the back passenger head oil return galley so i pulled the intake to pull the head to seal around oil returns. I was...
I started my Hemi a few times over this past week and am wondering if
I made the right choice on the plugs. I have autolite AR 53 plugs in it now but they
seem a bit on the cold side but im not a plug reader. After a few runs i pulled them and they are black and it’s running or at least smells...

So I need to pick up a coil for my hemi I’m running the factory dual point prestolite distributor
with the ballast resistor. What brand coil do you guys recommend? I was thinking
about using the standard brand coil just wanted to see what others suggested.
Oh and it’s a street driven car and has...
Was thinking of trying to do a pressure or vacuum test on intake manifold gaskets on the 426 hemi. I have all the pushrods removed so all valves are closed so if I make block off plates for the carb flanges on the manifold would it be possible to get an accurate test? I figured there would be a...
Has anyone used the new edelbrock pro flo 4 fuel injection system? I been reading on the specs and all the included parts I’m interested in giving one a try on my hemi stroker.
How many threads below the rocker do you guys normally set up your lash adjusters? Ray Barton recommended 3 to 4. 426 Hemi with roller cam and stage V heads and roller rockers.
I measured the first set with 4 threads and the lifters ended up being the wrong ones for my block so I got the correct...
I recently bought a 2wd 89 Dakota V6 with an A-500 trans 163,000 miles on it.
The trans has issues but not sure where to start on repairing it. So first thing I know that needs repair is that the gear selector detent ball for the rooster comb has fell out somehow. If it has sat a day or two and...
So I thought I was getting close to firing this hemi up but after oil priming it I’m not so sure.
Stock block (1970) with a solid roller cam and crane ultra pro lifters and non oiling pushrods.
When priming the lifter that is nearing the highest point of lobe lift is bleeding oil because the top...
426 hemi with edelbrock AVS2 650 carbs.
I have removed the choke from the front
carb and trying to decide to keep or remove
from the rear carb as well. I wouldn’t be daily driving this car in the cold winter months so should i keep or ditch it?
thanks
Got the fuel lines bent and installed temporarily for this hemi with a stage V intake. Gonna make up some fittings to leak check my double flare connections with nitrogen.
