Buy your convertor first. There are also 2 different size convertor to flexplate bolts.

Sounds like the first order of business will be to pull the pan, look for clutch or metal in the fluid, inspect the filter, check snugness of valve body fasteners.

I agree: I used to run those heavy slugs and then try to rev it to the moon. The engines started to last after I got smart and started lightening them. These days just buy the lighter pistons.

Better cam and intake, porting the heads would be a good idea or just sell the heads and buy some Edelbrocks.

Don't forget the driveshaft issue once the Mickey Mouse shifter issue is sorted.

65 Setup is very desirable, lots of people looking for them.

Ugh, Chebbie, no bueno.

440. They're both old and chances of either running like new is low. Go to Summit and you can order 440 pistons to your door in a day most likely and it will feel 27 better believe it or not. Besides a 66 block in a 66, it's magic.

Purple one is Milodon, never seen the other one.

Pretty easy to change the tailshaft and housing to a b/e.

Not many people restoring swing fender or other classic Dodge trucks. I would scrap most of that stuff too to avoid tripping on it for the next 30 or 40 years.

Yeah: Chrysler added cost by changing to Hurst later just for the fun of it.

Be thankful it was.

Nice the crank doesn't have those big "ears" on the throws like the earlier car 413's do.

Are you going to sonic the walls? Interested in if it will go to stock 440 bore.

Deck height is probably short. Do you want to trim your heads and/or intake down?

I really like the Passon OD, super clean install and the ratios work.

I've swapped them before and I didn't notice any earth shattering difference. I never got a smaller one to stall higher than 2000 either. I think other than a big C-body with tall gears I would use the smaller one given the choice.

Not worth effing with it IMO. Think how that narrow bore is going to work with valves that open near the edge of 4.25 bore. Just spend a bit more and get a normal block that doesn't require custom parts. The Pro Stockers used destrokers not small pistons, just wouldn't make any sense.

Yup: I tried to run studs on the valve covers on one car and it made it so you couldn't get the valve cover off, had to replace them with bolts.
