Here are some pictures of a b body manual transmission crossmember. The smaller hole where the transmission mount stud goes, goes towards the back of the car.
I finished fixing it up around 2018. I mainly drive it back and forth to work. Believe I saw your car coming through Duncan a few weeks ago. There are a few Mopars in the area but not many. There used to be quite a few Mopars hid out. I recall seeing the 68 in Marlow. The green 68 R/T in...
268/284 .450/.458 115 are the specs for the 440 HP cam. It idles very smooth and has a ton of torque off the line in a 440 with L2355 pistons and open chambered heads.
I would give the Lunati camshaft a try since you already have it in the engine. It might have a slight loap to the idle but...
Thanks everyone. I did not know that about the front bearing. This one does have the larger front bearing. Looks as if it all grew up together. I was a little curious if it came behind a Charger or GTX, and if it was a Hemi or 440 car but it doesn’t look as if there is a way to tell.
I have this 18 spline 4 speed and I was wondering if anyone could help me out with the VIN stamping on the side to see what this came out of originally and if this was originally an 18 spline transmission. Thanks
Has anyone ever used a GM style Hurst Competition Plus shifter on their A833 4 speed? My Mopar Hurst flat stick shifter is wore completely out and will not shift out of reverse unless I crawl under the car and shift it by hand. I currently have an extra GM style like is pictured in great shape...
Pontiac fired them up before they were in the car and then again after they were installed in the car. No 2,000 rpm for 20 minute stuff. But they also had better lifters and oil designed for flat tappet camshafts. I would be willing to bet Mopar followed a similar procedure.
Those look like TRW 6 pack pistons. In one of my 440's, I use those pistons, a set of stock 452 heads, a 440 HP camshaft, and 750 Carter AFB. I generally use 87 octane in it and it runs great and never pings. I'm guessing with the right camshaft, yours will run much better without pinging...
You can't really see if the sliders are worn until you tear it apart so you can look at the teeth inside the slider that grabs the gear. You can check the teeth on the synchronizers and engagement teeth on the gears by pulling the side cover. However, you really need the transmission tore...
My stock 440 HP seems to quit pulling before 5,500 rpm. I usually try to shift it at 5,000-5,200 when I'm on it. New valve springs might let yours rev a little higher but I don't think there would be much, if anything, to gain power-wise if it has the stock 268/284 .450 .458 cam.
While I sometimes don't have the best luck and it may indeed stay in place for someone else, I put a yoke in my 833 4 speed and when I was breaking the engine in, the yoke flew out of the back of the transmission banged around underneath the car and whacked my floor pan. It didn't hurt anything...
As long as there aren't any deep pits, it would probably clean up at .035 if it is just surface rust. I have a 400 Pontiac block that was stored outdoors since the early 80's. It was solid rust. The block was original to one of my GTO's so I wanted to try to save the block. It was already...
Small dings or small pits on a crankshaft don't bother me too much as long as there are no raised areas and the crankshaft measures out like it should.
I gave $100 for a nice complete set of 906's needing a valve job. I would think they would bring more to a guy needing a specific date code for their build.
