Ok. Going to need some help on a few things. Things I’ve done so far:
Pulled the 383 out of my 66 (not original & overheating). Dropped in 440. Had to use my motor mounts from my 383. And use 383 manifolds as the 440 had center dump exhaust. Also swapped the leaking 727 out with my ‘68...
Trying to order or buy belts from part stores for my 440. It is a 1966 440 with power steering. It is going into my 1966 Charger. The crank pulley has 4 or 5 grooves. Guessing I’ll need two belts? Anyone have lengths needed or part numbers? Thx!
Okay, I’ve put a few torque converters on in my life. But, I had to walk away from the garage tonight.
I did just read a few comments on other guys having problems. And I ran across a gentleman saying 1966 splines are different that 1967 (big block). If this is the case, that is my problem. I...
What model aluminum heads do you suggest? Not building a drag car. So, inexpensive is better.
Here are some 906’s that popped up near me. They seem to look ok.
Question for you guys:
After some reading last night, I discovered that my ‘67 Newport parts rig possibly has sought after 915 heads? They sit on its 383. They’re fairly rusty on top. Somehow condensation crept up to them.
I’ve never rebuilt heads but I do know they sell the springs, rods...
Aaannnnd - the first start for the 413. Barked right off but seems like there’s a vacuum leak or maybe a bad plug wire. Still happy that both of these run!
First start up! Sounds pretty darn good. I had to:
Put on my known good Edelbrock 1406 (600cfm).
Replaced a couple plug wires. Replaced spark plugs. Replaced fuel pump.
Plans are to clean her up. She’s filthy. Might paint. And now on the lookout for headers and a carb. Might do MSD and another...
Two locked up 318 Poly motors. One is complete. The other has some components missing. Comes with automatic trans (both). And a rare four barrel POLY intake.
$900 or nearest offer for both or trade for MSD, Ready to run carb, or aluminum intake, headers for a 440. Thx.
Condition is unknown. Came behind a 413 big block (1965 Imperial). $300 or nearest offer OR aluminum intake, ready to run carb, or MSD dizzy for my 440. In Enterprise Alabama.
These videos are from the guy that I’m buying from. I’ll post more once I get them home and start assessing. I’ll ensure the oil is good enough to troubleshoot. Then I’ll bottle feed and see what happens.
Hoping to get a little help as I’m no mechanic by a loooong stretch. A couple questions...
Well gentlemen… I just bought:
440 w/ all accessories and transmission. He said reverse might be goofed.
413 w/ all accessories and transmission. Tracking it is cable vs linkage. If I have a big block 727 from a 1967 Newport, is there any way to use its linkage setup?
Anyway- $1400 for the...
Hello all. I have an opportunity to pick up either a 1965 Imperial 413 or a 1966 Imperial 440.
I want to put one of these in my 1966 Charger. I know that the 440 might be the better choice. But I think the fellow wants a little more for it.
After a little reading, I see that the HP difference...
I have an old 65 four door Coronet that I got as a three car purchase. It has the 318 and two barrel carb.
Motor is free. After a little work, established spark. Poured a little gas down carb, she barked off. Disconnected from old tank and ran rubber line to boat tank. She actually idled for a...
