    MP purple cam and lifter recommended preload?

    Hi all, Firstly, yes I have searched on here and I've seen there is already quite a bit of preload info, but I couldn't see any that relates specifically to the cam and lifters we have. Koffel built us a 440 stroker a few years ago and the build sheet says it's a P5007698 cam. Googling only...

    Another stall speed query!

    Hi all, looking for a bit of help to understand what stall speed we need for our application. I've read thru many threads on here which have given conflicting info, so still none the wiser to be honest! It's a 69 Sport Satellite that we recently fitted a 493 stroker from a well known and...

    69 440 stock valve covers w/1.6 rockers?

    Hi all, We've just got our 69 Sport Satellite back on the road after 4 years. Now got a Koffel 493 in there, fairly mild, but still made 605 hp and 687 lbft on their dyno! All along we asked that it be easily streetable and stock-looking. So far it feels very useable in traffic and at highway...

    Kickdown options for 440 in 69 b-bod?

    Hi all, Many moons ago we changed the original 318 in our 69 Sport Satellite for a warmed-over 440. The guy that built the engine and did the swap was more familiar with Fords & Chevys race engines and wasn't aware of how important it is to have a fully-functioning kickdown linkage on a 727, so...

    Push Button 727 park mechanism assembly

    Hi all Just wondering if anyone has any kind of exploded view (like you get in the manuals) of the park mechanism on a 63-ish push-button 727? We've just had our driveline vibration fixed :hello2: but while the car was in the 'shop they also (tried to) fix a leaking park mechanism gasket...

    Exhaust manifold studs - what sealant?

    Hi guys What would you recommend to use for a leak-free seal on those pesky manifold studs? Does the sealant need to be high-temp? I presume it does but there are good sealants like loctite that would be easy for me to get hold of, but might not withstand the temperature? ARP Sealant...

    Fuel pump pushrod query

    Hi all Has anyone had any success in finding a good source of aftermarket fuel pump pushrods? Our 440's is showing signs of wear (about 2.4mm / 0.095" down on the original length) so we thought we could do with replacing it while the fuel pump is off. Hughes do a hardened version but...

    Fuel pump advice?

    Hi all Just looking for a second opinion if I could trouble you... We recently bought an AC Delco fuel pump for both our 63 Polara (426MW) & 69 Sport Satellite (440) - initially to help the Polara's starting 'issues' (it always starts, eventually, but takes a lot of cranking) but thought...
