    Living with 10.8 compression on the street ??

    How does it actually run? I'd make sure your balancer isn't lying to you when you time the thing. I know it's common on small block Ford's and chebbie so maybe ur balancer is marked wrong or has spun on the 440

    440 Source Heads ... experiences?

    I bought a set in 2009 and everything was fine except for a weird step on the backside of the valve seat on the intake. I posted pictures and experience on moparts I believe, back in 2009. I had them bowl ported and better springs put in and sold them to a coworker who has them on his 451. Work...

    Smogger 440 build (piston height)

    Well here is the update. I took the heads to the machine shop to get resurfaced since I had them off. I picked up a set of new valve springs and I was going to install new valve guide seals and springs myself but my machinist offered to do it while she had the heads getting decked. Then she...

    Nitrous and big block head gasket question

    I see people getting away with amazing amounts of boost and nitrous on stock cast piston big block mopars. I guess if the tune is right and the RPMs are low you get away with it for awhile. Dan

    440 crank issue

    Stroke it and poke it if you can afford it. Otherwise, atleast around here, you can pickup a 440 shortblock for 1-500 bux to go through... Dan

    Nitrous and big block head gasket question

    For those using nitrous on a mild big block are you having better luck with steel shim headgaskets or just standard fel pros? I have been reading on the net a bit that the steel shim headgaskets dont like much nitrous abuse versus the standard felpros. I could give a **** about compressed...

    Smogger 440 build (piston height)

    I will use a window switch and only use small nitrous from 3000-4200. With fresh valve springs and the engine never seeing 6,000 rpm those 2 pound pistons will be okie dokie.

    Smogger 440 build (piston height)

    There was no windage tray and all the rods had symbols versus numbers to coincide with the rod caps.
