    How many engines have you exploded or hurt really bad????

    Just one. Back when we were kids my younger brother and I were arguing over a knocking sound coming from our '68 Formula S 383 4sp Barracuda. He said it was a main bearing, I said it was a connecting rod bearing. So we decided to hold the pedal on the floor and wait for it to blow. It did. Big...

    Headers and Mini Starters

    I cant confirm they are the same but I'm running the D452 on my 440 in my '62 Dodge. Great fit. Mini starter required. The D452 is what you want for the RB block. I also have the 727 pushbutton.

    I get to install this oil pan twice, yay!

    You would think so but everywhere you look they say 15 ft lbs. The last gasket I bought was the Superformance. Won't squeeze out like cork. I use a 1/4" drive with a 6" extension and just snug them up one handed. You can watch for the gasket to squeeze out a tiny bit then stop. I think the...

    Gray smoke when warm

    Pull you plugs for a look. Keep track of where each plug goes and look for any differences.

    Coolant in oil, fresh build

    Yep, I read it was your first build. Just checking the obvious things first. Did you do any cleaning in #5 cylinder? I'm not seeing any gasket contact on this chamber like on all the rest. Again, did you do any cleaning here?

    Coolant in oil, fresh build

    I'd like to see the driver's side head. Look for a crack in the #5 chamber and also check #5 cylinder wall all the way down. We're these head gaskets reused like the valley pan gasket?

    1979 Dodge Magnum 360-727 torqueflite squeaking in R,D,2,1

    Did you mean you put the  "new one back in and the noise gone".?

    1979 Dodge Magnum 360-727 torqueflite squeaking in R,D,2,1

    I had a brother in law that was hearing a high pitch squealing on his Ford pickup that nobody else could hear. It was driving him crazy. He pinpointed it to the pvc valve. He replaced it with a new one. Noise was gone. Couldn't prove it by me but he was happy.

    Speedometer cable trans fluid leak

    It goes all the way in. The flat side goes in first.

    Speedometer cable trans fluid leak

    Probably where you leak is coming from. The small seal keeps fluid from going into the end of the cable. Also your large o-ring has a nick in it. I'd avoid using any sealer.

    1979 Dodge Magnum 360-727 torqueflite squeaking in R,D,2,1

    There's an inspection cover. Remove it. You'll have to turn the flywheel/converter to see each bolt. Use a open end wrench on the torque converter bolt to turn it to the next one or a socket on the front damper bolt.

    Speedometer cable trans fluid leak

    You'll need the small seal inside of the speedometer gear. Hope you can see how it goes by this picture.

    Coolant from exhaust header stud bolt

    Permatex #2 never totally hardens. It's almost like pipe dope. No silicone, more of a tar substance. It's been around a lot longer than me.

    Coolant from exhaust header stud bolt

    I'd remove the header and do a close inspection of that hole. If it has a crack you might be chasing your tail. If it is cracked you might be able to repair it in the car.
