    67 Coronet engine question

    Yes I can do that as soon as it gets home. The owner of the car suddenly passed away and his widow is selling it so the registration is currently in motor vehicle limbo land

    67 Coronet engine question

    The car actually spent most of its life in Ontario where you’re located but purchased new in Manitoba

    67 Coronet engine question

    I wish it was a 500, but is just the 440 trim level. It is a Canadian car but definitely not the 318 poly. It’s also possible that the engine has been swapped but current owner of 30 years says the motor is untouched.

    67 Coronet engine question

    That’s the thing, 67 is kind of a swing year. If it was a 66 I’d definitely say it was a 273, 68 would be 318 but I’m unsure where it’s a 67

    67 Coronet engine question

    Just put a down payment on a 67 convertible that I stumbled across. It’s a 2 owner car, unrestored. One re paint and new top was put on in the 90s but overall it’s a very original car with a small block…. So would it be a 318 or 273?

    More cam? Change my mind

    I did a similar build about a year ago using those type of pistons. Using a .484 cam there was only about .095" of clearance with a .040" head gasket... so pretty much at the limit. Bottom line is those pistons are not good for a performance build for this reason. I only ended up using them...

    More cam? Change my mind

    Are the pistons cut with valve reliefs? If not, then I would not gamble with more cam.

    Harley goes electric

    They are just trying to cover all of their bases by appealing to the next big thing. Personally, I’m not a fan but I think it’s smart on their end. Around here, Harley’s are more popular than ever and a co worker was telling me when he was at bike week in Laconia NH a couple weeks ago, 98% of...

    67 coronet

    You can put in a 318 but after the first drive or 2, you’ll wished you had gone bigger

    Let's say you just graduated with your ME degree, what car do you buy?

    It depends on a lot of things.... like how far he will have to travel for work, if he is the kind of guy that will need a truck, will be living at home or moving out on his own... the list could go on and on. But before making any big purchase, I would make sure that I had a solid and secure...

    Can a 440 block from an old LP generator be used in a car?

    A lot of times, big gen sets like this are only used during power outages or other emergencies. It may be very low hours

    Preference on Tires?

    I would never hand my keys over to someone I didn't know to change the tires. Remove them yourself and take them to a shop to have the new tires put on the wheels. My preference is BFG TA's, white letters out, 275/60/15 rears. But whatever you end up doing, make sure you give the old ones a...

    FOR SALE 440 Block and Parts Setup

    Has the block been bored or crank turned down? Where exactly are you in Maine?

    Stumped

    But he still may have aluminum heads, water pump, and other aluminum components that are exposed to the coolant system. I'd switch to straight water or regular pre mix to see if the problem went away. Then you could rule out coolant being the issue.

    68 Charger R/T Clone refurb

    Great project and nice that you have a game plan to reach your goals with the car. With the work that’s done to the engine, it must haul the mail!

    Maple Grove Raceway ...FOR SALE...

    Funny how these people will build close to a drag strip then complain about noise. Chances are, the strip has been around before they were even born. BS
