    One more question. I'm confused about engines and manifolds. Will a y big block intake manifold fit on any big block engine? I know...

    Well that option would be fantastic if I wanted to tear apart a brand new 400 and spend thousands of dollars stroking it. But I don't...

    The 70 engine IS the 6 pack engine - and it's not frozen! It's currently in the Coronet, but I'm going to put it in the Challenger. The...

    It's a complete engine. I can't run a feeler guage under a, straightedge. I'll look with my borescope and see if there's anything on...

    I'm not sure if any of you guys will see this, but I have an update for you. So the 72 440 engine is out of the picture. It's locked up...

    So now I'm thinking a different way. Of course the HP 440 6 pack engine still should go into the Challenger. And I agree that the 400 is...

    So I agree that the 400 in the Coronet would be an easier way to get it running and flip it. But before I make that final decision, I...

    Well, I actually have a 70, a 72, and a 77 440 engine. I thought it was a 67, but it's a 72 block with 67 heads on it. The 70 block is...

    Yes I have 20 cars and I'm retired, so selling them is my retirement fund (and keeping me busy in my retirement years) So you think...

    Exactly! Mine is actually an Edelbrock intake manifold with the correct carbs on it.

    wags70ss replied to the thread My dilemma.
    Well there's 2 problems with that. First - neither of the 400s are stroked. And one of them is fresh. The other one would cost me 2-3...

    Ok, so I did some digging and I am very excited to share some good information with you all! I decided to go look at numbers...

    wags70ss replied to the thread My dilemma.
    OK that makes sense. The 400 is done and on a stand. The 67 440 would need built. But there's good news there as well. I already have...
