Fran, the engine did set for 5 days. I know like you guys I would expect a little more oil on things. One plus I did take my hand and wipe the bottom of the crank gear/chain area and had oil on it. So that's a plus. After 4 yrs the whole engine , tops of heads , inside valve covers, ect are...

now that you mentioned it the gear set and chain was. Inside, pump drive cam ect were wet.

Thanks, I will put a new pump on along with the chain and gear set. The rest of the top is oiled fine. Crazy.

Yes that is looking dry on the gears and cover. Thanks Don & Fran. Its pumping plenty up to the rockers and top end. Last time running we looked at the gauge at temp, 35lbs idle and 65 when you give it some rpm. What would cut flow down to the chain,and gears? Slinger is on it and ok.

It gets better, top side is fine rockers, rods, even the comp cam and lifters are wearing ok. Crane springs ok, Gear drive on the cam looks fine, pump drive is good. No glitter inside. It has a comp dbl roller chain and gears. Just because I can't find anything I will order a Cloyes set and...

Well I know I'm past Tuesday but we got busy. Any how, listing with the steth scope I had alot of noise in the timing cover / distributor area. Pulled the distributor all is good and tight, spun it with my cordless drill, its good. So crap, off comes the balancer pulley, correct bolts, no...

Thanks Don, I will ck the distributor over. I hope for something simple like that or the pulley bolts like wild R/T posted. Going to be tuesday eve before I can start on it. Got to do some work on one of the granddaughters car this eve.

That would be great and thank you for the heads up on that. I have not had that pulley off the engine for the past 4 yrs. But that's not to say something may have moved , ( thrust bearing ) ect. I will ck it out. Thank you.

If it's not one thing its another lol. Dang old bullet proof RV 440 is making some horrible high pitch grinding / squealing noises up front. 1st thing removed all belts , no change. Went to the shop and grabbed my step dads old stethoscope , Back home , fire it up , middle of valve covers...

If it's making a mess under the car you know it needs fixed. Couple spots on the floor after a drive and sitting, that comes down to what your willing to put up with. Hell I drip a couple drops myself but I'm not calling my urologist. I dont really like him that much. :lol:

Joseph, all of the exhaust bolts / studs will need sealed. Like posted above a good high temp thread sealant is the way to go.

Nice charger snow bug :thumbsup:

Drop the center link. Your pan should come off ok.

Remember after 72 hp figures were net instead of gross. my guess would be close to 350.

Take a look under the car at the shifter side of the trans. Many tail shafts have both a B and E mounting points. If you have 2 mount points and are currently using the rear most one you can correct your shifter position. You would have to purchase B body shift arms/ levers and move to the...

I have one a 26" 3 row in my 67. 440 engine, 7 blade fixed fan and shroud. Works fine.

Coil and or choke adjustment.

A decent condition well tuned RB should have no problem doing a off idle burn out with 2.94s and sure grip. I run 3.23s in my 67 but did have a set of 2.94s in it a one time. Like posted, tire dia plays a part along with a well tuned distributor and carb.

Remember the distributor rotates counter clockwise, like allready posted ck. For spark also ck, power at ballast resistor and coil.
