    Opinions on cylinder pressures.

    Been a while! Life gets in the way it seems of anything Mopar related the last couple years. B-440 Stone cold Throttle blades open 1- 126 3- 127 5- 126 7- 135 2- 126 4- 123 6- 129 8- 127 With the headers it is extremely hard to get to about half of the plugs. I just wanted a baseline and may...

    Cable shift TF pan depth versus non TF pan depth?

    Somewhere along the line I acquired a fairly hefty chrome plated transmission pan. When I went to put it on my '64 cable shift big block TF it was too shallow. Hitting the filter. I re-used the beat up OE pan. My question being, are the later model TF transmissions different in their pan...

    Pan and valve cover gasket install on 440.

    The timing cover, water pump gaskets are what I am assuming is blue Garlock. The pan and valve covers are cork. Should I use anything on the cork gasket to aid in sealing or not? I didn't use anything on the Garlock as it is commonly used in industrial applications without any additional sealant...

    Enginetech main bearings.

    Putting the crank back in after polishing the journals and used plastigage to check clearances. Everything looked ok except for the #1 main. Looked at the old bearing and compared and didn't notice any visual anomalies. Went ahead and lightly scraped and crocus clothed the #1 main bearing a...

    RB valve springs, orientation?

    Although I kept the old valve springs and retainers in their removed orientation and location I decided to order new springs and retainers. They are so cheap my time is more valuable than the time spent cleaning the old parts. I have looked the springs over pretty closely and it doesn't appear...

    Another cylinder head question?

    Right and left. In the many times I have moved the heads around I have obliterated my left and right markings. Is there any way of identifying which side they came from if they display the same casting numbers? Rocker arms/shafts have been removed.

    First year 440 cylinder heads?

    440 out of a 1966 Chrysler New Yorker and AFAIK original heads to the block have a casting # of 2406516-8 Research indicates these heads were used on 413's and B blocks but were they OE for the 440 in the first year?

    Head bolt question?

    On B440. I am in the process of cleaning the block for a dingle ball rebuild with new cam/Lifters/pushrods/cam bearings/main and rod bearings/rear seal/gasket set and timing set. Pistons/bores/heads are being left alone except possibly valve seals. My intention is to be able to drive the car on...

    Hydraulic lifter differences 1966 versus 1968 and latet?

    Was strolling through summit and noticed on some of their kits it says the lifters wont work pre 1968. Others don't show the warning. Anyone know off the top of their head what the difference(s) are? Thanks

    Old yes. But stupid too?

    I have a question and don't slap me down too hard. On a RB what keeps the camshaft from slipping forward and out of the bearings? Distributor gear, timing chain....I know some cam's from differing makes/applications utilize a retainer.

    Uh-Oh made some work for myself. Pinion seal 741

    As I noted in another post my 1968 vintage SG 741 is leaking around the pinion bearing. I went ahead and pulled the nut and flange. The flange surface has a mark from the seal but no groove or wear pattern. My mistake was I didn't look at the tech help before I removed the nut/flange so don't...

    741 Sure-Grip

    I bought this rear end assembly from a guy many years ago and installed it. It's been driven about 1/2 mile and on and off a trailer a couple times in the last 15 years. I am re-acquainting myself with the car as I start piecing it back together. The casting says it's a 741 with the tags saying...
