    Cylinder condition

    So, finally got to honing a cylinder on this 440 block to examine condition through all the surface rust. Can't get some of this rust, and looks as if there's a very noticeable ridge a little down a 1/4 inch from the deck. Assuming this needs to go to machine shop? Mostly worries about rings not...

    What to expect from 1970 383 HP

    Well, despite all better judgements in me for building a small block stroker or a 440 I snapped on a complete aside from carb 1970 383 magnum out of a 1970 roadrunner. Hey, it was 300$ and it was a impulse buy what can I say. Thing still has oil in it and "ran when pulled". Haven't even put a...

    Shifter issues

    So, I've been chasing when I can on my time off my shifter linkage issue, where it sticks when trying to shift 2nd to 3rd. I've tried readjusting per the hurst shifter, even with the specialty tool to no avail. I still have this lip on 3rd, I think this might be related to it not wanting to...

    Choke linkage?

    hi, installing the microswitch and this linkage is blocking the mounting. Looks like remnants of a choke linkage, it doesn't do anything or touch anything, just rotates with the throttle. I don't have a choke, am I good to remove it to allow mounting of my microswitch? 4150 mechanical secondaries

    Compression

    so I took a borescope finally and looked in my cylinders, and I found out my pistons in my mopar 340 are something 2385F - with my cylinder head size being 65cc, should put me square at 8.5 to 1 compression. I can't believe someone would put such a piston into a 71 motor, but that all beats me...

    For Sale: Not Mine Is it too rusty? Mopar r&p gears

    Been looking around for center sections to give my 340 all the help it can get gear multiplication for torque, and stumbled upon this. Only thing about it, it looks like it has a bit of surface rust on it? Should I be worried about something like the amount of rust on this, or should I send it...

    440 mopar rods

    Lowering blocks

    Hi, I'd like to lower my car about half to 1 inch inches, the stance right now looks kind of weird in my opinion with such a short tire, 295/50 but I can't really go to taller tires because of close ratio a833 trans and 3.55s, any taller and my mild ish 340 is slow off the line Will I run into...
