    poly numbers

    Here's a list I have that says your engine is a '57 301ci; a 57 Fury 318 would have been FP31- and a 60 318 would have been P318-. I really don't study these '50s engines much, so grain of salt? Plymouth Poly V8 Engine ID CID Year P27 241 1955 P29 270* 1956 P29 277...

    440 engine

    The list I have shows A & E bodies. E Body is certainly plausible; I'd have to look at the ordering info as to "which" A Bodies might have had a 440 available?...seems they weren't? 1970 Hamtramck Dart/Swinger/Swinger340/Custom Valiant Barracuda/`Cuda (exc. convertible) Challender & R/T

    A833 ID

    Looks like the VIN stamp starts "0B"? - So 1970 Hamtramck car if so?

    Help decoding trans. Number PK3681054 4361 930

    Date code 4361 (if I read that correctly) means it was built on Friday July 6th, 1973. Not too unusual to have a tranny replaced in ~55 years - lest someone misrepresented the car as "number matching" or whatever...

    '66 Coronet 440 engine decoding

    I could be wrong about J=73 - But...isn't the pic of your engine a '74? 4T440 with that 4 short for '74?

    '66 Coronet 440 engine decoding

    The "J" is 1973. ("I" was skipped from usage) Build date July 27th. There may be additional info stamped on the driver's side pan-rail outcropping below the starter. Gotta crawl under for that....

    383 car/truck motor

    Not aware of differences in a 383. Possibly your friend is thinking of the 426 (heavy-trucks wedge) Commercial engine versus the 426 (common use) Wedge? Significant differences in the water pump/jacket/heads/block on those. Just a thought. M

    Is a 340 crank and 318 interchangeable?

    All good - my "thumbnailed value" may have been optimistic :D I'm still above water if I sell it in the range you do. Who know what I'll actually ever wind up doing with it - not me! LOL. Couldn't pass it up, tho...addict Thanks Mark

    Is a 340 crank and 318 interchangeable?

    @GTX JOHN : It's fine that you disagree....but with "what"? Did I value it wrong? - if so, is it "scrap rate"? ...nothing?, or $500? ... or more? Is it something else you disagree with? I value other's opinions on things like this - would appreciate more than a "drive by". Thanks Mark

    Is a 340 crank and 318 interchangeable?

    My immediate thought on this would be aluminum rods to try to get away from having to add counterweight - but I've never had my hands on one of these before, so I don't actually know jack!:( I have a very good scale and always static balance my pistons/rods assy's, but I have to send anything...

    Is a 340 crank and 318 interchangeable?

    Yes I did. I haven't picked it up yet and put a mic on it - in the next week or so. It is part of a rather large parts package I bought from the guy. I thumbnailed its "retail" value at about $250 based on apparent "rarity" and being std/std. I may resell it, or maybe put it in...

    Is a 340 crank and 318 interchangeable?

    Bumping this somewhat elderly thread back up with a question: An associate has a 318-3 crank that I can buy....anyone want to opine a ballpark on what the current value of a "std. x std." one might be? I don't really have any particular 'project' for it to go into, but it's one of those -...

    Freeze Out Plug Sealant?

    Fanny's your aunt...
  14. M

    440 question, will a rear main seal leak when the car is just sitting, not running?

    If the slant in my pick up stops leaking, I know the oil's all gone! Fortunately, slant don't really need oil or water all that much...
