    WTB ISO: Aluminum FOUR bolt 413 RB Valve Covers

    I know I’m looking for a needle in a haystack, but figured it doesn’t hurt to ask! So I’m sitting on this ‘62 Chrysler and would absolutely love to dress that 413 up. Unlike the later B and RB engines, the heads only accept 4 bolt valve covers. I’m looking for any cool 1960’s style finned...

    Who runs "Hemi" Mufflers? Looking for sound clips

    Looking into some exhaust options for my build. From what I hear, a nice "loud but not too loud" muffler is the factory Hemi muffler. Looking on YouTube, I can't really find any examples of what they sound like! Exhaust system will be hooked up to a stock 440. I'm running some small temporary...

    WTB ‘66-‘70 Heater Box Parts Wanted

    Hello all. I’m looking for parts for a ‘66-‘70 Heater Box with AC. I actually removed this box from my 1968 Chrysler New Yorker; but the heater boxes (at least for AC cars) are the same between B & C bodies. As you can see, being abandoned for 42 years didn’t do this heater box too good...

    440 ILDING AFTER 42 YEARS! Engine Troubleshooting

    A few weeks back, I had been questioning the way my fresh 440 was running. This is my first engine build, so I don't know much - but I could still tell it was running pretty rough. Any adjustments I tried making just made it really upset and so I decided to just let it run for the sake of the...

    Help! "Correct" way to install distributor on a 440???

    Recently got my 440 running for the first time! We ran it at 3k long enough for a cam break in. It is a stock spec cam and nothing special. I just wanted a reliable and rebuilt engine for my cruiser. Yes, the car is a C Body but I know there are a multitude of engine gurus here who can help me...

    Trying to ID this exhaust! Looking for this exact sound

    LOVE THIS SOUND! Gorgeous Chrysler 300 with a 440. I love that deep, low yet mellow rumble it has - and that nice roar when you lay into it! IMO one of the best sounds ever especially with that big block 440 like I also have. Video says it's a glasspack, but there's so many out there. It...

    Disc Brake Question

    Scored this F body disc brake setup for $100!! Was a bit ugly when I got it After a good solvent bath and sand blasting, the setup looks great! I’ve only ever really dealt with drum brakes, and the only other Mopar disc brake setup I’ve worked on / set up was a 72 C Body setup on my 68...

    Is a late 440 worth it for a cruiser?

    As I finish up my ongoing 68 C Body project, I am already looking into the next. I wasn't planning on it, but my dream car (a 1962 Chrysler) fell into my lap - and selling the 68 would get me the money I need to purchase the car and then some! It's a '62 300 sport with a 413. She hasn't been...

    Carb Choice for Stock 440?

    Hey all! I asked this same question on FCBO, but I'd also like to get input from my good neighbors here on FBBO regarding my 440 build. Now, I know this is one of those kinds of questions that has a bazillion different answers… but I’m trying to be sensible, and not over carb a STREET driven 440...

    Fresh 440 installation!

    Got the 440 installed yesterday! Mocked up radiator core support / fan setup. I had a few questions regarding the transmission and whether or not I need to pull the motor back out. I seated the torque converter in until I heard 2 clicks. It spun freely with no issues! Could see the tail...

    Engine’s almost in!

    I know she’s a C Body, but I’ve been so happy with how much help this site has been. I just had to share a pic! Made the swap over to non AC pulleys. Yes, the 2 groove pulley works with my flapper mounted TRW. Can’t wait to hear the old girl run! Thanks for everyone’s help so far :)

    Break In Oil! Which one to use for my 440?

    Nearing the installation and initial start of my 1968 440. Aside from having needed to be bored 30 over, it is all stock. Stock spec cam, lifters etc. etc. There is a LOT of info on the web about break in oils and whatnot, but I figured I should ask the pros here on what they think! Like I said...

    Originally, my 440 was set up for AC. Poor old girl hasn't fired since 1980 or so... After setting it up after the rebuild is where I realized that just doing away with the factory AC isn't so easy... I won't lie, comparatively I'm a newb when it comes to this stuff. I'm 21 and this is...

    FOUND 2 Groove Crank Pulley / Non-AC Water Pump Pulley.

    Hey all! I’m visiting from FCBO. I go by the same name on that site; currently restoring a 1968 New Yorker. In my quest of putting the rebuilt 440 back together, I quickly realized that doing away with the AC wasn’t so easy. I’ve now changed my alternator bracket to the Non AC version and have...
