I’ve heard that someone is making panels again. I’ve got room to store them now but don’t know who it was stamping them out now. I’m gonna need all 5 panels to make it solid.
The PO didn’t remember what bolts his builder used. All I have is this one picture when my guy checked some bearings and confirmed it was balanced. This is an older build. Maybe 8 to 10 years ago. It spins 5500 easily and is smooth as glass.
Thanks guys.
Bob.
I’m tired of fighting Californias government. I’m packing the family and moving to where my daddys family lives. Just east of Asheville. Got both houses up for sale. I’m taking my 63 dodge with me and it looks like there are way more tracks there than here. Who has a favorite track there? My...
So I just got my tach working. 80mph at 3000rpm with 28 tall tires. Converter flashes to 2800 in 3rd. Figure a 6% slip. Figures closest to a 2.93. It was a factory 318 auto. No wonder it’s a freeway flyer. Since I have a small pinion carrier I will upgrade to a large pinion with a posi or...
So my 63 has a push button trans. Yet it also has a normal front u joint. Not the special one a 63 uses. I asked my trans builder what it would take to change from a RMVB push button to a normal floor shift. He said it can’t. Something about the case is different. The builder is Art Carr so I’m...
My 63 Polara has a 440 with a RPM intake. The PO had a. Wing nut holding the air cleaner on which dimpled the hood. I want to add a spacer under the carb for a small nitrous hit.
And cold air. Problem is all the accepted scoops are for cross rams. I see nothing for single carbs our tunnel...
My car is a 63 polara with a 440. CNC Stealth heads, Isky 292 mega cam, Speed Pro 2355 flat tops, Doug’s D452 headers, MSD 6al and billet dist, Ed RPM intake with a 750 Double pumper. A Built 727 with Manual Valve body and a 3k converter. Just some 275/60/15 street tires. Mostly street but a few...
The mod suggested that I close my thread and repost it as a for sale instead. Sooo I have a great set of 452 heads complete, a Comp cam 270 hydraulic with lifters but they got mixed up. Billet timing chain. A stock vac advance dist with A petronix module, it needs a vac can, and a stock starter...
I bought my 63 polara with a running 440. I didn’t like the way it ran so I put CNC Stealths, a Isky 292 cam and a full MSD ignition. When the shop pulled it down they said it looked like new. The PO told me it had 500 miles on it. I put 500 miles on it. I don’t want to ship this stuff. The...
I got the old cam out of the 440. The new Isky 292 runs great. Fixed my problems. I'm trying to figure out what the cam that came out of it is. Just want to see if it's something somebody on the forum might use. Thanks Bob
Just a heads up. I bought a set of Doug's D-452 coated headers for my 63 Polara. It has a 440 with Stealth heads, power steering and a 727. Only thing we did was to put on a Powermaster Mini starter. Fitment was perfect. It needed no dents or scratched up finish to go in. Had the heads off and...
It's in the shop and they pulled the pan to check the bearings. it was low on oil but I checked it when I bought it. I only have about 500 miles on it. Oil pressure was always about 80 above 1500 rpm and never less than 40 at a guess 750 hot idle. Piston tops look clean. This was a motorhome...
She's my first 440 and my retirement car. It is mostly for cruise nights and once in a while a blast down our local 1/8th mile strip.
1963 Polara H/t No Power acc. I believe it is a 3.23 in the 8 3/4 open. Block is a .030 76 motor home block with an uncut deck. Forged 2355 Flat tops with valve...
Hi guys. I’m disabled and 75 so I can’t do this myself. I need a shop or individual who could install a 292 Isky Mega cam for me. I’ve got no place to work on cars anymore. I’ve bought the parts. Any ideas. I found one shop. He wanted 3k for a cam swap. Seems high. I’m in Seal Beach. Thanks. Bob.
I had a shop who said they would install my cam in my 63 440 powered Dodge. But he wants 3000 and then another 1000 to do my MSD dist and 6al box. I may have been retired for 15 years now but that just seems way higher than I would have charged in my shop. I have the new cam, lifters and timing...
Just wondering if any of you porting guys have done a flow balance job on one of these. I did Chevy and ford ones a long time ago. I'm thinking that a ported one would work well on a set of TF 240's, 292 mega cam and 446 cu in. I'm thinking I would send mine out when the time for the cam change...
My package is a 63 Polara with I believe 323 gears. 727 with a 3000 stall 11 inch converter. The engine is a 030 over 440 out of a 76 motor home. It has 452 heads which are stock and L2355f speed pro flat tops. Calculates out to 9.37 to 1. The intake is an Air Gap with a Holley 750 DP. I am...
My car has a lot of hidden floor rust. The PO seemed to have covered some cheap thin sheet repairs with bondo and then painted it with flat black. Carpet was glued down. By the time he put a few miles on it the repairs were hidden. So here’s my question. The car is a original 318 car without any...
Why can I buy lots of wiper arms for a 65 but my 63 polara are no longer being made. Are they really that much different. Anyone have a working part number. I’m about ready to start hitting the boneyards for some used ones.
Thanks
Bob
