Well, like I said in the first post, it isn't an HP, so definitely not original

Oh, did I miss that? It is a '67. Yes, it is a real R/T, but, like I said, not a numbers matching engine, so I feel like, once original engine is gone, everything is out the window. In any case, everyone says 440, which is how I was leaning. I have lifts going in my garage next week, which...

Cruising, burnouts, and noise? That is my life's goal. :)

I kind of doubt the parts I have will result in 450-500hp. No idea for sure, though. I'm seeing crate 6.4s for under $8k. But, yeah, there is likely a lot more to throwing one into a B body.

Kind of a situation-specific question. I have been away for a very long time. Life got in the way and my Coronet has been sitting dormant with the engine in pieces. I want to do something with it, but I just don't have the time, so I'm thinking of farming it out. Anyway, in short, it is an R/T...

Appreciate the info.

Block is a '66 cast. No idea where it was pulled from or what happened to the original from the car.

Good question. I had just assumed it had stock RB heads. Now that I have checked, the stamping is 2406516. So these are 383 heads? Is there a reason someone would put these on a 440?

I gotta go back in time and see if I can find my receipts.

UH-OH. I think I do have the wrong set. Should be 5892, not 5982. UGH!!

the actual springs. 8 are 49 mm tall and 8 are 54 mm tall.

This must be a stupid question because I can't find anything about this anywhere. I am finally getting around to installing my edelbrock cam and valve springs. There are 2 different spring lengths in the box, however (8 of each), and so far of the 3 cylinders I have removed the springs from...

Granted, I am viewing from my phone, but those appear to be attached by exhaust manifold bolts, not head bolts.

Anybody have a completed picture of this? Because I don't believe I've ever seen anything held on by head bolts (other than the head). How would you get a good seal on the head gasket if something was running under or over it?

Don't you mean valve cover bolt? You can remove that no problem.

Edelbrock has been around even longer. Anything is possible, and since it was tampered with, we'll never know the root cause and therefore can't blame edelbrock.

You wrote they were also ported, so the seat could certainly have been affected during that process. Also, if we're talking stiffer springs, then they would be putting greater pressure on the seats than the manufacturer intended.

Yeah, I'm a bit confused why Edelbrock owes anything.

doesn't even have to be aftermarket. block is from same time period, but, correct, not original to car.

In my non-expert opinion, I don't see a good reason to swap from your '70 block. Non-matching is non-matching. Won't help the value at all, I don't believe. If it was a year correct HP engine, that would probably be a different story.
