    Has anyone seen this while installing a big block in place of a small block?

    I’m installing my engine and I’m having problems with bolt alignment. New 440 Source mounts and brackets.

    Rod Cap torque for 440 Source "factory replacement" rods?

    I seem to have misplaced the instructions that came with a set of connecting rods. Does anybody know what the torque spec is for the cap bolts? I would imagine they would be the same as the H-beam rods also.

    Crankshaft end play tight?

    I'm assembling a 440 and after installing and torquing the main caps I have practically 0 thrust when measuring at crank snout.

The bearings are Dura-Bond High Performance Coated Bearings PDP-17T, I tried the cutter cam idea since they...

    Looking for 727 rebuild/upgrade parts ideas.

    I have been searching for a parts list or "recipe" for a 727 I am planning to rebuild but haven't been able to find much. I have Tom Hand's and Carl Munroe's books, I've watched a few videos and feel confident I can handle it. Some improvements make sense to me and others I wonder how much of a...

    Converter identification

    Can anyone tell me what this torque converter is? Guy I bought it from couldn’t remember where he got it or what brand it is, he thought it was a 3200 stall. I think it is too big to be that high of a stall speed but I really don’t know.
