Hello to All,
I am contemplating the replacement of the 383 in my Dodge with a professionally built 451 or a 496 stroker engine.
I would like your opinion of these engines, your good or bad experiences, advise which of the two that you prefer & why, etc. Just any comments that you'd like to make...
Hello,
Can somebody post a CLEAR photo for me of the engine boss on a 383. I know it's located close to the distributor but I've forgotten where. Help an old-timer out, please.
Thanks!
Hello,
I recently bought an Offenhauser 360* intake identical to the one shown here.
The application is my '65 Coronet 383 [out .030]/727/3.23 [for now] rear gear. A 4.10 gear is planned for the near future.
The engine has a slightly lumpy [no cam card, bought it this way], has headman headers...
I am looking for a gated type shifter that [when stripped from its factory plastic console] will fit into/under the factory console of my 1965 Dodge Coronet 500.
I just want to feel a positive stop between shifts. I also want the appearance of a factory shifter arm/knob.
I am just doing...
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has ever swapped out the '65 OEM automatic shifter for an aftermarket shifter? I want to retain the console and factory appearance. I realize this was an odd year for Chrysler.....it was the first year after the push button was eliminated.
If someone has, what...
Hello All!
Does anyone out there have a clear photo or drawing that shows me exactly how to measure these two pinion gear yokes? If not, can someone refer me to a link that shows me how to measure them?
I searched the forms first and could not come up with anything.....perhaps I overlooked a...
Hello All,
I have a 1965 Dodge Coronet with a console shifted 727. Can I convert the existing black knob to a pistol grip-type handle? If I can, can any of you folks direct me to a site where I can buy one?
Another question: Does my existing black knob just screw off? I tried it once and the...
Just looking for opinions....
I have a 383/727/3:23 in a '65 Dodge Coronet 500.
The engine has a mild cam, headers, an Edelbrock Tarantula TM6 and [at present] a 600 CFM Edelbrock carb. It also has a standard Pertronix conversion.
I was thinking of swapping out the carb for a 750 CFM. The...
Hello...
I am [possibly] looking to buy an aluminum intake with a Chrysler part # 2836148.
-Can anyone give me any history on it?
-Works well or not so well?
-What was it originally installed on from the factory?...I believe it does fit "B" engines....or does it?
-What RPM range does it...
Hello,
When you stop laughing I hope you will help this old timer.....
When I jack up the rear end of my '65 Dodge Coronet 500 both wheels rotate in the same direction....
Is this a sure grip type rear or an open rear?
I was told it was an open rear by a friend of mine.
Thanks!
Hello Folks!
I recently bought a pair of '60's [I believe] 383 M/T valve covers on ebay.
While they were dent-free, they were heavily oxidized and just plain UGLY!
I had a local company, Coatings, USA [116 Success Rd., Front Royal, VA. 22630, 540-636-7911 coatingsusa.com & also FB]. apply...
Hello to my FBBO Family!
I rarely post, but when I do you always come to the rescue!
I have a 8 3/4" 3.23 open rear in my '65 Coronet 500. I want to replace it with a drop in 3.91 [or 3.90] unit.
I bought a Yukon N case from Randy's years ago for a Roadrunner that I had, but the prices have...
