    Front sump pan,440

    OK! Good. Let us know what you find. As mentioned, you have enough oil at this point. I like the 20W50 oil in warm weather. In fact I use 15W40 in my snow plowing truck all year round. It has a somewhat worn 413 and holds 70 PSI when cold.

    1st try (engines first crank)

    I would use the Driven BR 40 (10w-40) break-in oil. the BR 30 would be OK too, just might have lower hot oil pressure at idle. Not sure what the engine builder gave you, maybe MOA (Motor Oil Additive?) that would be used with a conventional motor oil. Don't use any additional additives with a...

    Update on installing my fastfish rear mail seal

    As explained, when using the rope seal, that knurl pulls the oil IN as the crank spins in the normal direction, preventing leakage while allowing the oil in that area to do its job lubricating.

    400 Stroker Rebuild Sounds Like a Bucket of Bolts

    Did nick happen to say what the oil pressure actually was? I’d be pulling the front cover and degreeing cam and checking for missing galley plugs.

    Best oil for 440.....

    In the old days when I was asked what oil to use I answered, "It doesn't matter, just change it on time"

    No oil pressure on start up after oil change.

    But what if you only put clean oil in the filter ??

    Now what the heck?!?!

    Driving my '68 Charger (383 ci) home last night and all of a sudden 1 backfire and then another huge backfire and a big cloud of black smoke out the back! The engine immediately dies and I'm able to pull off the highway. I check for fuel, spark, and crank it a couple of times and more backfire...

    What number oil pan needed for 68 GTX...

    Guys, original engine/trans was missing from my 68 when purchased and am putting a 67 dated engine together. In the listing for a 68 convertible here, I noticed the oil pan was stamped 402. Is that OEM correct and are there any other number pans that will work with no problems, thanks

    Tube & Dipstick Measurements for 1969 Plymouth Satellite

    What you're asking is irrelevant. The real importance is the amount of oil in the pan. The dipstick/indicator should be tailored to the actual, and correct, volume of oil.

    1st try (engines first crank)

    451 on the topic of break in oil, I’m deciding on what viscosity and brand. My engine builder included 2 small bottles of a mix to add to I believe the oil Mabye it’s gas? With this additive I should not buy break in specific oil correct? As for brand I was interested in either royal purple or...

    Post up facts and things that hardly anyone knows...... (for entertainment purposes only. NO need to fact check)

    Before Los Angeles became known for its film industry, it was a significant center for oil production. In 1892, Edward L. Doheny discovered the first successful oil well near what is now Dodger Stadium. This discovery led to the Los Angeles Oil Field becoming the leading oil production area in...

    Spark plug

    What condition are the plugs in that you are currently using? Are they consistent? some oil fouled? What type of ignition?

    No oil pressure on start up after oil change.

    I changed the oil and filter on my 440, recent build with a new pump, Wix filter. Started it up, no oil pressure. Scared the crap out of me, pulled the filter, pulled the pump. Couldn’t find anything wrong, got out another filter, half- filled it with oil, put it all back together, started up...

    440 6 Pack squealing noise only when completely warmed up

    So.....I replaced the oil filter hoping I'd get lucky. Yeah right. I went for a ride and about a mile from I house, here comes the squealing sound again. Came home and I used a stethoscope to help pinpoint the noise. When I touched the timing chain cover, WOW, I can clearly hear it. I...
