    Yoke Length Question

    I just received my new 3" Strange driveshaft with their 727 trans yoke, universals, complete and balanced. I noticed that the Strange trans yoke is 1.5" shorter than my Neapco one. The Neapco length is 7.560" and Strange is 6.062". I looked up other 727 trans yokes at Summit and they were...

    Thanks to B&M

    I purchased a new B&M Megashifter for my Cordoba back in 1989. It cost me $119 on sale. Now it costs $340. Anyway, it was starting to get a bit sloppy and didn't feel very crisp anymore. I contacted B&M to get it rebuilt or fixed as it has a lifetime warranty. After emailing them a...

    Mopar M1 Intake Manifold Question

    In a recent post I read someone saying their are common issues with the M1 intake at off idle. I've been having issues with my 440 with the M1 intake. Just off idle, as I accelerate, I get a hesitation. It doesn't go away when engine is warmed up. I'm running a Holley 850DP and we...

    4 Speed Question

    I have a friend who has a 71 Demon 340/4 speed. To put the car in reverse, he has to move the shifter to the left, push down on the Hurst shifter, and shift down into reverse. Normally every 833 I've seen is move shifter to the left and up. His goes 'down' into reverse. What...

    Clutch Adjustment

    My rebuilt a833 is now installed and I noticed when shifting into reverse I need to push the clutch pedal right to the floor. If the pedal isn't 'all-the-way-to-the-floor' it will not engage, confirmed by nasty grinding noises. Unfortunately I haven't had a change to drive the car to...

    What is this on my head?

    A leaky drivers side valve cover is winning the battle. After changing gaskets a couple times I had enough. The leak is coming from the bottom middle area of the cover, dripping down the block and on the headers. You all know what happens then. Today I removed the cover once...

    Hidden Mysterious Find

    What started off to be a fairly straightforward oil pan gasket change on my 440 ended up to be nothing but. After removing the pan and windage tray, I noticed orange silicone looking deposit stuck on the screen on the oil pick up. I unscrewed the oil pick up unit and while cleaning off...
