    440 w/ AVS stumbling at cruising speed.

    I can confirm it was rebuilt with a slightly bigger cam from factory. Trying to find info on it for reference. Thanks guys.

    440 w/ AVS stumbling at cruising speed.

    I tried the vacuum advance suggestion but no change, still does the stumble. I will check timing and some of the carb suggestions mentioned next.

    440 w/ AVS stumbling at cruising speed.

    Thanks for the insight guys, all is helpful. Unfortunately I had acquired this particular car last fall so I haven't had much driving time or the previous history to draw from. My other B bodies I know the details of what I setup. It runs great in all other situations, its the dang...

    440 w/ AVS stumbling at cruising speed.

    I'm versed with Holley's, so possibly increasing jet size on the primaries of the AVS? I'll admit I need to learn a bit on the Carter.

    Yes, I am running vacuum advance currently.

    440 w/ AVS stumbling at cruising speed.

    Hey all, hoping to get some help on an issue with my 70 GTX w/ 440. Stock build, Carter AVS, auto trans. The issue I am having is when driving and maintaining a consistent speed of lets say 55 mph. The engine seems to consistently stumble lightly under partial throttle only. It does not do this...

    Converting an AC car to Non AC - 71 Charger R/T

    Just due to it having issues and missing some of the hard to find hoses. The compressor is clunking so a rebuild is needed and the reman ones seem to not be worth the time. My initial thought was to remove it, however i need to hunt down all the pulleys and alternator bracket. The heater box...

    Converting an AC car to Non AC - 71 Charger R/T

    Hello all, looking to see if anyone knows the rundown of what is needed to swap the factory AC out and go to a non AC factory setup. The car is a 1971 Charger R/T w/ factory 440 & power steering. Right now it has the factory AC compressor w/ two belts, a power steering belt and also the fan belt...

    Rear main seal leak?

    Thank you, I googled it and found the same. That seal has more controversy than a Hillary Clinton email trial.

    Rear main seal leak?

    I thought of the pcv and breather last night as well, I removed both but it still leaked. Good looking out, sometimes it can be something that minor. Doesn't appear to be my situation but thanks for mentioning it.

    Rear main seal leak?

    If I do need a new rear seal, what brand seal and sealant does everyone recommend?

    Rear main seal leak?

    Thanks for all the help everyone. Let me ask this, to do the rear seal on this will the engine need to come out?

    Rear main seal leak?

    Is it common for a rear main seal to go so quickly? Is it just bad luck or maybe improper install?

    Rear main seal leak?

    It's engine oil, its black, smells like engine oil. Gear oil has that mineral smell to it so I'm 99% sure it's not trans gear oil. Plus it only does it while running. Does anyone know where the gallery plugs are located on a 1969 383 block in case its possibly that?

    Rear main seal leak?

    Hey guys, I think I know the answer but you guys know far more than I. My newly rebuilt 383 with about 150 miles on it started leaking engine oil today after a short drive. The oil is leaking from the transmission inspection cover (4 speed car) if I start it up it leaks a drop every two seconds...

    Coolant Hose Pressure?

    I did top it off a bit before this happened so that may be indeed what happened. Thanks!

    Coolant Hose Pressure?

    No coolant recovery tank on it, just an overflow hose that runs from the radiator neck down to the underside. Thanks for the info, I just wasn't sure if having pressure on both the upper and lower hoses was normal. I got a bit worried thinking i had a head or head gasket issue.

    Coolant Hose Pressure?

    I looked everywhere and there is no leaks whatsoever, nothing out of the overflow hose even. The car seems to be in normal operating temps. The cap is a 16 lb. Maybe its normal, i just smelled the coolant after twisting its tail so i thought something was leaking or it had overflowed. I would...
