I have a new set of 440Source hesds that I need to paint. I'll be using a good primer & then high temp paint. My question is, do I mask off the intake & exhaust ports before painting ???
I was considering doing the same with a motorhome 413 that I came across last year as the heads, waterpump, and exhaust manifolds are all useless so was going to have to source those anyway which starts adding $$ up. The 413's bottom end is sturdy as all get out and built for running at 3K for...

Its funny you say that, a mate over here said the same thing about the customer service with Hughes. Makes a big difference when im all the way over here.
Yeah i definitely want more go down low.
Haha yeah definitely going to need some fats on it.

I build a few engines for people and have built probably 15 mopar strokers in the last 10 years, 440source and Ohio crankshaft are the vendors I use. I lean toward Ohio crankshaft on higher performance drag car engines, but have raced the 440source kits as well, no problems, customer service...
Like this thread what have you found to be a safe DCR with 91 or 93?, I'm refreshing a 451 that presently has TF240 and want to detune it for better streetability with Iron heads it's going to be a cruising car with 3.23 and going back to manifolds and it will come out to 10.3 Static and 8.8...
The main reason that we study history is so that we can learn from our mistakes and NOT repeat them.
In 2003, I built a 440 with a 4.15 stroke using a rotating assembly from Hensely Performance in Tennessee. This was before the 440Source existed.
The man on the phone told me that with aluminum...
...the car built put 440-218 step headers on which according to RobbMc's website are mean't to fit raised port heads rather than the 440sourceheads he or had someone put on the 440 so that guaranteed a mismatch and clearance issues right there. When my Cousin had the headers off I recall him...

Per the TTI website the 440-218 headers are not compatible with 440Source Sheath heads however that is what was on the car when I purchased it and am sure I would get next to nothing if I sold the 2 1/8 headers and would pay through the nose for the correct 1 7/8 TTIs. My Cousin took my...
Hi All,
Just purchased a Proform 1050 cfm carb for my 496" (383 stroker) and I am curious if anyone has this carb on a similar engine as described below and if so where have you ended up with your jet sizes?
This engine is in my '69 Coronet resto-mod street cruiser. I doubt seriously it will...
As others suggest, I concur it will predominantly be the heads that would keep the engine from making more than 1HP/cubic inch.
Stroker kits, roller rockers and lifters, long duration cams, hi-flow carburetors and header exhausts may fail to achieve the goal, unless the heads flow well enough...
So, while trying to figure out where to spend money on my project 68 Coronet, I have been pondering many things. Among those is bang for the buck on an engine rebuild. The engine will be a 440. It will be running HP exhaust manifolds, an almost stock intake and a stock carburetor. I am...
