Can’t remember if I mentioned my car in the past but anyway. So this is the result of over seven years on a rotisserie. Body & paint pretty much finished and ready for assembly.

OMG, I thought I might be lookin at around 2K, but 4500!!! Holy moly.

Taking a stab in the dark I guess, but no harm in asking. I’d like to purchase an aluminum 8.75 carrier (p4876445), I know they’re pricey. I am trying to build a very lightweight 68 B body, aluminum everything, thanks

I have just about enough 18 spline guts to build a 2nd trans. I would like to use an aluminum case and tail housing for weight savings, but I’m worried about strength as it will be used with 600+ hp big block. I have an aluminum case that has been sleeved for counter shaft. Anyone out there done...

I’m wondering if anyone has ever heard of someone installing a 68 charger grille & doors assembly into a 68 Coronet. I would like to customize my coronet this way and would probably use a new repop assembly. Any thoughts?

A note about ethanol though, there are ethanol/gasoline blends that are 105-113 octane and will support CR's from 13.1 to 20.1. So if I learn how to build an ethanol friendly engine that may be the route.

I am going to run a cam that will lower dynamic CR, that and 94 octane. I ran a 440 with an engle solid cam, 11.1cr on 94 octane for several years, no problems at all, even on 92 occasionally. Maybe its the canadian gas, I also avoid any fuel mixed with enthanol.

Paint it black, change interior to red.

Yeah, looks like you had your hands full with that charger.

It was originally RR1 Burgundy Poly with a maroon/red interior (bench seat), but I'm going with black and the same maroon/red interior. I have a 383 ready to go, .030 over, 11.5cr, perf rpm intake, headers. I've also converted the car to manual and have an 18 spline trans. going to use a dana 60...

A few more pics.

My Coronet has been striped down to the last screw and on a rotisserie for 6 years now. Final paint is nearly done and assembly can begin. I thought I would share a few pics.

Thanks for all the replies, Just wanted to make sure before I invest in parts and start putting it together. Final paint just about done and can soon start assembly.

I would like to ask the more knowledgeable people if they think this is possible or is there too much interference? I’m building a 68 Coronet 383 4spd and want to incorporate a/c (sanden comp mounted below alt), power brakes, power steering and headers. Will it all fit? Thanks

Thanks for the info. I also have another set-up that may work good. A Spreadbore top plate and kinda rare 1000 cfm Thermoquad (4847SA)

Thanks for the replies and great info.

I am converting a 68 Coronet to 4 speed, I have most of the parts but need a photo showing how the factory cut the floor before the tunnel (hump) tacks on. I know about being careful with the crossmember, and that it isnt cut to full size of hump. I see lots of pics of topside with hump...

I have a chance to pick up an Edelbrock STR 15 intake for low deck, and wondering if anyone knows anything about modifing these for better performance? I have heard they will work better on big inch strokers and I would be using it on a 383/496. Ive heard stuff about popsicle sticks, epoxy and...

No need to get fancy, powr-lok sure grip for $395 will work fine, its rebuildable and I have run one in a 489 behind 500+ hp and a 4spd for over 10 years. Still lays down thick even black strips.

I am thinking about putting together a fairly cheap & kind of experimental 440. I have a mid 70's 440 block std bore, very light use as the cylinders are still within spec. I bought a new set of Silvolite pistons with 1.912 CH. I originally planned on shaving block & closed chamber (75cc) heads...
