No exhaust coming out!

My guess - There was alcohol involved.

All the bolts were loose and had come up about half an inch from being tight.

He might have replaced a bent pushrod and forgot what he was doing. Valve cover bolts tight? That's really absent minded if they were.

The heat riser valve on the pass. manifold is stuck closed? Doesn't make sense how you explained it though.

Where did you get the idea that the heat riser is stuck closed? There isn't even a heat riser on the manifold, read my post again. I solved the problem.

You didn't state that in your original post.
How would he know that?

It almost sounds like your driver's side has no compression. I am not very experienced in this area but could valves be stuck open?

I solved the problem if you read futher down. At least you are honest when you say you are not very experienced. Some of the "help" that I got was actually comical!

YET you RED X'd Tony Tee in post #5 and he was the closest guess to your true problem. You asked for help and then **** on those that offered help... wow.

Duh, I stated that the exhaust was coming out strongly on the passenger side. Anyone that has worked on a Mopar V-8 would know that the heat riser is on the passenger side.

And anyone that knows anything about engines knows that if you block the heat riser closed the exhaust superheats the passenger manifold because it has nowhere to go but through the base of the intake. Your quote in your original post:
"the exhaust manifold on the passenger side was very hot to the touch. ". I was the first one to respond and what you described we were all just guessing. We don't have a crystal ball and who would know that half the valve train was laying in the valley!

YES you were the first one to respond all right, where did you get the idea that the heat riser was blocked off? I had said that the exhaust was coming out of the passenger side? If the heat riser was blocked there would be nothing coming out of the passenger side!

I hope the engine assembler (not an engine builder) did a better job of tightening the rod bolts.

I can't believe how rude the OP is to the people taking the time to offer suggestions.

The heat riser blocks off flow to the exhaust pipe not to the manifold. The exhaust still exits the ports into the manifold before it backs up and is forced through the passage in the intake to the drivers side. Think about it !!!

A good one for the ignore list. If you don't want suggestions, don't ask for help. I'm out!

I bought a used 440 last winter and I put it in my 70 road runner last weekend. Here is my problem. I got it fired up and it seemed like it was only running on 6 or 7 cylinders. I ran it for 20-30 minutes, turning it off occasionly to check timimg, etc. I noticed that the exhaust manifold on the passenger side was very hot to the touch. Yet the driver side was hardly even warm. I could hold my hand on it becasue it was so cool!. I started it again and crawled under it to check the exhaust coming out of the exhaust manifold(there are no exhaust pipes on it yet) Almost nothing was coming out of the driver side but on the passenger side it was coming out stronly and it was hot. I am going to start on it this morning and check it out some more. I was thinking blown head gasket, cam lobes worn? Everything is new, cap, wires, electronic ignition, spark plugs. I checked the firing order again thinking I messed up on the wires, that's okay. It idles and revs up okay, other than having a slight miss, but it could be better. I did not drive it because I am waiting on a driveshaft. Any ideas guys? Thanks, Steve

You come on here and attack people calling them names who were legitimately trying to help and then try and make them look bad but YET you had the balls to type this on your 440 "4" cylinder "revs up okay, other than a slight miss" After running it for 20-30 minutes on 4 cylinders most would have known in the first 15-20 seconds not a 1/2 hour but your the genius in all this...:rofl:
 
i think joey needs to add a penis between the thanks and the like sign, would come in handy. what a dick!
 
every response to this guys problem was 100% legit and very well could have been the answer given the information that was provided. what kind of an idiot cant tell the difference between an 8 cylinder hitting on all 8 or barely surviving on 4 cylinders at 350 rpm? then we are just going to keep on running it. this turd isn't qualified to use a flathead screwdriver
