...lol hahaha Thanks Prop "Caged angry badger tough" is what I was going for! ANGRYBIRD!! Thanks Coronet! so far I'm pretty pleased with CME and their product I don't think we'll be too far off from each other at all when we do hit the streets 747! Last summer I was so afraid to drive...

...I sent you an email the other night just to fill you in on what happened with the motor as I'm sure you also read in this post. I imagine your CME 440 will be sitting for a while yet before fired so I just wanted you to have the lowdown on how mine went. Thanks for the kind words and...

Sounds like the gremlins are being dismissed! lol, I with my 73 seemed to have nothing but issues with the fuel system and none now, winters ago i decided to replace everything on it and im glad i did, I bought the tank and sending unit fron Vans and replaced everything up front and added a fuel...

Don't settle just for local companies, look into companies like Carolina Machine Engines who will offer warranties with their work and provide quick turn-around times. I saved $1,500 in comparison to the 'cheapest' local engine builder when I had my longblock rebuilt by CME.

...I have no issue taking liberties with it. So here's what's been done so far! Affectionately known as AngryBird 1) New Crate Motor from CME 522 Stroker topped with a QuickFuel 780 and K&N Extreme Filter Top 2) Wizard Cooling 22" Rad with upgraded cores and integrated shroud with 4 - 9" SPAL...

The CME built engine arrived a few weeks ago, the packing & documentation was top notch. The engine had been fogged with ATF prior to shipment which is great as it won't go into the car until spring. Overall I can say everything exceeded my expectations. Externally the paint, fasteners and...

It'll be fine until it isn't then you'll switch it. So if I start with 50 degrees of timing and I pull 1 degree per lb of boost I'm good to go, huh? I'm not trying to be a jerk, but you have to stop with generalities, especially when using a power adder. Same goes for nitrous. There are no...

I definitely didn't pay $250 for mine Speedy still not sure how you lucked into that deal but Good on ya!! Talking to CME they said there's absolutely no worry about my internals they'll take the boost just worried about detonation which I think at 10:1 at 8psi I'm with Hemirunner that I'm...

...the duties. One thing I am doing differently is the engine is going through my buddies broker for his restoration shop rather than relying on CME to just ship... CME requested this and it seemed to work out better and very fast. The engine shipped on Wednesday afternoon and is already in...

- - - Updated - - - This is pretty much back together now but posting whatever I have for progress pics in this thread... Still seriously considering hitting my steering wheel with SEM Color Coat to make it black and match everything else but just concerned about the wear and sweaty palms. -...

Hyrdgoon I looked at CME before I decided to go local I really liked what I researched about them online nothing negative I was close to making an order. The local shop I went to also had no negative reviews and been in busness since at least the 80's and thats why I went with them they also...

...There is a windage tray in there which I thought may be the culprit since windage and strokers don't always play nice together... I would think CME would install something that they know would clear though since they've built plenty of these. I'm hoping that Monday enough investigation can be...

...Super 40's that came with the kit Mine is the QFT SS-780VS http://www.jegs.com/i/Quick-Fuel/793/SS-780-VS/10002/-1 The motor is a crate from CME it's a 522 Stroker the carb is the same one they used to dyno it and what they recommended. I'm happy I went with the Doug's headers too! I...

213 (motorhome/hd police) cylinder heads, 3 angle valve job, new valves, new valve springs-set up for the .509 camshaft. These heads are completely refurbished with only 500 miles from Carolina Machine Engines. I went to Edelbrock Performer RPM aluminum heads. These heads only differ from the...

...is still tight. I've put them in other cars with zero problems. I know other people have had issues though. With all the positive reviews of CME, I'm planning to take two engines to them if I like what I hear on the phone. It's a day long day trip for me but I'll save shipping and get to...

...huge smile (he sent me two variations to get an idea of what I could expect). Leave yourself a couple of weeks buffer in the event they need more time to get it out the door with all the details you asked for. So far, I can only say great things about CME throughout this process. They are...

Ok so there's been some changes and I guess all in all I followed meep's advice and worked out the engine first. I've ordered a 522 crate from CME Engines breakdown is as follows: Except for the seasoned and SONIC TESTED 440 block, this engine is all NEW. The block assembly is equipped...

Some parts I just taken off the car.. 213 (motorhome/hd police) cylinder heads, 3 angle valve job, new valves, new valve springs-set up for the .509 camshaft. These heads are completely refurbished with only 500 miles from Carolina Machine Engines. I went to Edelbrock Performer RPM aluminum...

...the only input I can off that I wish I did was stagger 18's rear and 17's front. And as for the stump puller this thing is going to be a handful especially since it's a 4 spd... CME outdid themselves IMO... they guarantee peak torque of 625 and managed to average that through a nice steady...

I had my 440 rebuilt for $2,000 from CME. That included all new valvetrain, head work, .509 camshaft, etc. Engine was balanced, "blue-printed", and camshaft was degreed. They now cost $2,496 and their 440 with the 280 comp cam makes 440 horse power. I know this is not a 451, (400 stroker) but I...
