What did you do to your Mopar today?

[Photon440]

Lumpy lead - got after it with some sharp 80 grit at a angle.
Lead doesn't seem to play well with other materials and wont feather out.
Just going to bury it in high build.

You should try a file on lead.

I did CNC’s Pro Maxx heads, Comp Pro Magnum rockers and shimmed them to be centered on the tip. MP shaft hold downs.

Carb rebuilt, back on and we're ready for a tour with no more black smoke or splitting raw fuel!

Got the engine dropped back in. Car's been down 3 months and it's been killin' me...anyway I still need to finagle the headers back in, re-install the accessories, and it'll be ready to break in the cam..

Had the heads milled and gone through, new double springs and seals (no porting).
Rebuilt the short block, final CR now at 9.4
Added some Harland-built Mancini 1.5 rockers and new Smith bros pushrods, set up with B3's correction kit, and a nitrided version of comp's 275HL cam. Also had the steering gear rebuilt by steer-n-gear and got that back in too..

This was the teardown, back in feb. Yuck!

Gettin' close

Enough of this JACKSTAND business!

Put about 60 miles on the Bee today! One rattle is the only apparent snag, the hockey stick dash panel above the glove box and the wife says it rattled 40 years ago too!

Sold my '67 Coronet R/T today. I haven't done anything to it since I bought the '65. We're in the process of buying a house and moving out of this 3rd world sh*thole - Illinois - and I didn't want to take it with us - don't have the room for it at the new house. Sold it to a friend of mine who is really into the '66 & '67 body styles.
