Hello Does anyone know where to get the brake booster hose for big block? I tried a new piece of host to replace the old cracked hose but the original appears to be pre-molded. The standard hose from the parts store cannot make the radius of the original. 1974 Roadrunner 400

Getting my stock 74 400 cast iron intake ready for install. I am using two gaskets and a piece of aluminum flashing to permanently block the original EGR and puting back on the manifold to look original, using the Fel-Pro 1214 valley pan with Exhaust block offs. Is there any reason to fart with...

Ok Installing 400 big block cylinder heads today. From what I understand only oil lightly on all bolts then 40 foot lbs then 70. Do any of these bolts go into water jacket and require sealer? I don't think so but want to be absolutely sure. I know the exhaust studs do.

Hello I have a 1974 Chassis service manual that clearly tells me that the 440-440 Camshaft lockbolt torque spec. is 50 foot pounds (Page 9-89) When checking internet sites most say 35 foot pounds some say 40? What gives. What is correct? I have tightened it to 50 and now am worried I should...

Wondering what you all are using for carb heat dissipation, phenolic whatever. Carb is a Carter AFB mounting on stock cast 74 400 intake. Had a 3/4" aluminum spacer or adapter which I removed. Looks like the carb will bolt right on with the two bolt patterns but want some type of phenolic...

Hi guys Could anyone recommend a cam and lifers for a low compression 74 400 "P" code motor? Sent the heads out to Aerohead racing. They are going to put in the 2.14 x 1.81 valves. Heads needed to be reconditioned anyway. Keeping the original heads. Just a cruiser. I am thinking of replacing...

Hello Had to pull the heads off my 74 400 sent them out to be reconditioned. Been thinking of replacing the rocker arms and lifters while it's apart. Just looking for factory style stamped rocker set. Anyone have any luck finding a set that's good without breaking the bank? What about good...

Hello All Any problems installing 452 heads on a 74 400 engine? Thanks

Need your votes. Ref: 1974 Roadrunner 400 pretty much original. You may have seen my previous post on it having the original Nylon timing sprocket that gave up the ghost. Well I believe it bent a couple of valves so will need to pull the heads. Need your votes on keeping it original and just...

Hello again Wondering if there is any reason i couldn't relocate the fuel filter up above the alternator where I can see it and replace it easier? I believe the stock location is down below and behind the alternator. I am changing the fuel pump and thought Id put new hose and move the filter...

Hello I just purchased a new mechanical fuel pump to install this weekend. My question is how hard or easy is it to move the teeter totter arm? I just took it out of the box to look at it and the lever seems immovable? Just wondering if this is normal or defective... Thanks

Does anyone have the part number and where to find the idler pulley that goes on the air conditioner bracket? The one that rides on the back of the twin belts? Got everything apart so might as well replace that too.

Sorry if this has been asked here before but couldn't find it. Need to remove the oil pan, and I know i need to remove the steering linkage. Now the question I have is the book says R&W models raise the front of engine 1-1/2-2 inches. I assume I will have to remove the two engine mount bolts...

Hello Could anyone give tips on oil pump removal for 400 big block? I have the (4) 9/16" mounting bolts removed (I assume the 1/2) bolts are just for the cover to body of the pump bolts? The pump wont budge? Also is there enough room to remove and reinstall without jacking the motor? It the...
