    1966 Belvedere II Radio Options

    I have a standard AM radio at the moment, mounted in the dash. I would like to fit an after market retro style radio which has FM and aux inputs. What options do I have? There seem to be a lot of options for later B body cars, but not so much the earlier cars like mine. Thanks

    MSD Atomic EFI just installed

    I have a 440 with 727 in my belvedere. What happens to the kick down linkage etc when you install atomic EFi?

    440 Coolant leak - running down edge of drivers side engine mount.

    I'm going to go ahead and replace the core plug. Will also do some more tests on the starting/ charging system. i have ordered a mini high torque starter anyway, as I'm sure that will spin faster and draw less. i had 9v going to the coil on cranking, and 12.5 v at the ignition key on at coil...

    440 Coolant leak - running down edge of drivers side engine mount.

    Oh bother. More bad news. I ran the car for just 2-3 minutes and it cut out. I was going to drive it on a ramp to double check the leak and look for any other issues. I topped up the rad with 1 ltr of antifreeze before starting, as there is a leak from the core plug as described. So it ran...

    440 Coolant leak - running down edge of drivers side engine mount.

    Bingo! I borrowed a snap on bore scope and it shows that there is a load of yellow sludge around the core plug behind the engine mount. Relieved! Hopefully that's it, a leaking core plug.... Does anyone know what size this plugs (behind driver side motor mount) are/can anyone check? Should I...

    440 Coolant leak - running down edge of drivers side engine mount.

    Uh oh! Going to see if I can get her on a ramp tonight/tomorrow. The cracked motor mount lug or rusted core plug sound the most likely, but still hoping its a header bolt' I've ordered some hight temp thread sealant. I think there's a core plug behind the motor mount which is hard to see? The...

    440 Coolant leak - running down edge of drivers side engine mount.

    Hi I seem to have a coolant leak. I notice it most after running the car, even only for a few moments and then shutting the car down. A steady drip leading to a small pool of coolant then seems to form. It seems to drop and run down the inside metal edge of the drivers side engine mount just...

    440 Belvedere cut out and no start

    Thanks, sorted now. I charged the battery over night and it started instantly this morning. Further investigation showed that with the ignition on the coil was getting 4.8V at the positive terminal, which is a bit low? There was 12.5 volts to the ballast. There was one poorly crimped terminal...

    440 Belvedere cut out and no start

    Today I took my first run out on the roads after registering my 66 Belvedere (440 and 727 trans) in the UK. All was going well for about 4 miles until I pulled up to a junction and it stalled. This was just after gunning it down a small freeway. It would then not re start at all, turned over...

    Originally a 273, but the radiator is from a 318 if you trace the part no.

    Where to mount seatbelts on a 66 Belvedere With bucket seats

    I have a 66 Belvedere II Hardtop coupe with bucket seats. I don't think it's ever had seatbelts, but may be wrong. I bought the following belts for it: http://www.classicindustries.com/product/mopar/parts/mb173212.html Where should they attach? Are there any pre drilled and tapped holes from...

    Yes, there are 7 of us going. It's a great atmosphere :) About 100,000 British people drive there for example :) Most important question: How many burnouts can I do around the site!? A couple of years ago I went and there was a charger there on the camp-site that had bought steel plates to...

    440 Identification

    I have a 66 Belevedere with 440. The head stamp says the following: F440 C (upside down) 10 16 2 I have done a search and presume this means it's a 1970 engine? Standard compression/350bhp?? It has a AFB competition 4 barrel carb on it.
