I have a rebuilt engine and transmission. I have the lokar throttle and kickdown installed and adjusted per the instructions. The engine is a 440 with a purple 509 cam. The trans is a 727 with a shift kit and 3800 stall convertor. It idles good and everything, but when I put it in gear I have...

I have a decision to make on my 72 Rallye. The suspension is in need of some rebuilding. I have a problem with the lower control arms. At some point the car was abused. The k frame is curled up a little in front of the skid plate on the drivers side. The drivers LCA was changed to a 69 and older...

So when I start my car up there's a rattling going on in the engine compartment. It doesn't sound like its coming from inside the engine. The oil pan is dented in he center where the pickup tube goes, but not anywhere else. It kinda sounds like it's coming from the torque converter. When i...

I'm not very familiar with these intakes. I assume they are a max wedge intake with inner changeable carb plates. I would like to get educated on these things. Are they a superior intake? Do they only work with max wedge heads? Do they out perform other intakes? What's the advantages to...

I had to remove the left side header to install a mini starter. Of coarse the gasket tore. I have some manifold gaskets from an old kit I have from my last engine. I 'm curious if you can use the manifold gaskets on a header or not. I see the material on the outside is different than on the...

Ok, I had an old 69 440 avs rebuilt and the mechanic said it wasn't possible to change it from a mechanical choke to electric choke. It currently has no choke. He said there's parts missing and it wont work, so he wired it open. One thing he told me was that he used afb metering rods. The...

Ok Guys, the idea is I have a 71 440 hp and a 383 .030 hp. The 383 came out in 2000 and was running now in pieces. The 440 is still between my charger fenders and needs pulled and rebuilt. My objective is to have good power relatively good fuel economy and enough balls to put to waste some...

Well reading some of the engine builds and suggestions, I've decided to post my build and see what people think. This was my first attempt at a street and strip 12 second b body. If the parts sound like they are out of left field, it because I was a noob and didn't have access to a community of...

Which one is the best in your opinion?

I have posted on other threads. One was about low compression and the other was about gunk and valve seals floating. The engine is a 71 440 hp. Idk much about it other than it hasn't ran in some time. My question is do I rebuild this one. Or get a remanded from a parts store. I've bought a 440...

Well the title speaks for itself. I pulled the left (driver's side) valve cover and discovered a lot of gunk and particles. I'm pretty sure thats what it is. Looks like hard rubber pieces. So what should I do? I'm looking for some options here. Should I pull it and rebuild the whole block...

So I tried to start the Charger. No telling how long it sat. I went through all the systems to make sure it would start: New engine harness. Plugs. Plug wires. Coil. Replaced parts in distributor. New Battery. After priming the carb and turning it over a few times, gas was all over the...

I have posted in other threads about my 72 rallye w/1971 440 HP. Now i'm getting into it. I decided to do a compression test on all 8 cylinders. I'm going by the "72 dodge service manual CD Rom". Although it said to tighten the intake bolts to 50 foot pounds (which I didn't see till after I...
