Hi, I have a couple questions for you all. First I'm getting a driveshaft built so I am taking measurements on my 69' satellite 440/727 Dana 60. I also am trying to figure out the pinion angle of the rear and trans. I was told to get the angles correct before measuring so that you can get the...

I was wondering what fittings are needed for the trans lines? I pulled two off my old transmission but the previous owner cut the end off and put rubber hoses on the radiator side. But that has me wondering do I need to do that to these lines since the trans will twist some? The lines are...

Pulling a engine for the first time Ok so I'm pulling the 318 out of my 69' Satty and I can't believe what a PITA it's been so far. Driver side header was a you know what! I don't know how the previous owner got it on there... Had to pry it over the header studs because it was smacked up...

Finally got around to putting the carb and headers on the engine. It still is sitting in the crate but couldn't resist seeing what it will actually look like. I've had the engine since 11' and finally got the last big piece (carb) last month. I need to invest into a new camera one of these...

Well my machinist called the other day confirming that the engine was a reverse marine motor and that if I want to keep the block I will need a another crank since the groves will cause nothing but oil leaks or stroke it. I was busy at work and my dad drives right past his shop on his way home...

Hey guys, I am possibly buying a 440 tomorrow I know that year was low comp 8.2 or something like that but is it going to take much to wake it up? It has 90k on it, supposedly out of grandmas car? Figured I could throw my b body headers, 906 heads and front end parts off my 383 and be set. If it...

Hey guys, I have my valve body apart to install/drill for my shift kit. When I opened it I noticed it has a lot of gunk. I tried using Q tips to clean the tunnels but it has a lot and I was just wondering what I can use to clean this, I assume carb cleaner or an engine degreaser will be fine...

Hey guys, I'm torn between buying a 440 with a mild build and building my own 400-440. I just found a 400 pop up in the area and thinking about checking it out. I'm just wondering what I would be looking at as far as cost goes to build one, besides the obvious stroker kit and top end parts...

Hey guys, I am going to look at a 440 this weekend and was wondering what you more experienced guys think of it and maybe a rough estimate? No price has been brought up... We don't know much about it, I guess he bought the car and doesn't want this engine. We don't know the year or...

Hey guys, I have a quick question. I was just out trying to tune my carb and noticed smoke coming off my headers so i look under and see oil is dripping so i turn to the quest of figuring what the heck is going on. I found a few problems, Looks like something is leaking from the top of where...

Hey guys the other day i was able to see my car after the snow melted and i was tinkering with it, checked both my trans and engine oil, So my first question is my tranny could use alittle oil and i was wondering what type does it take? Of course the books at the shop only went back to 93' lol I...

Hey guys i'm just wondering anyone knows how a blower would look on a 69'? (Pictures?) I was pretty set on building a stroker but i'm wondering how a blower would look on top (Maybe even on my 318 or a fairly mild build big block?) I've never seen one on a 69' roadrunner at least not with the 3...

I found this rear end from a 64' Fury and i was wondering would it fit my 69' Satellite? It says it needs a hub, Not to sound stupid but what is that? I'm guessing the cover for the drum brakes? Would one from my 8 1/4 fit? http://southjersey.craigslist.org/pts/2062129566.html Thanks, ~Nick

Hey guys, So I'm trying to decide what i should do, Right now my Satellite has it's original 318 with a mild cam, headers, 360heads and internals? 4brl with a holly intake. I was planning on dropping a 440 with a 6pack in it but I'm wondering if i should just keep this 318 and stroke it or keep...

Hey guys, So i'm searching for a 440 to replace my 318 with and i'm wondering what you guys did when you went from a small block? Is it better to buy a whole car with a 440 and use all the parts in it or did you buy all the parts and find a 440 somewhere else? Also what all needs to be upgraded...
