Appreciate ALL of these responses and discussion of different real world experiences. My guess is that the first year will be a bit of a break in period for everything, so may wait until next winter for a swap.

As the build continues along with my insomnia, my attention is now about the current rear end set up and whether it should change and even be upgraded. Project Norma Jean is a 67 Charger with 383 stroked to 496 with TF240 heads and TF Roller cam(.600 lift). Tire size is 26", and have selected...

Agreed - initial thought was the air cleaner will cover it.

My 240s with the logo removed and prior to factory Turquoise paint. Wonder how many eyes will notice at the shows…

So a call to 440Source confirms that the chain used on my part (114-1001) is SA Gear, and made in US. Rollers are fully machined, not split seamed. Even found a video on Youtube comparing the SA to Iwis chain.

Thank you all for the quick and detailed responses. Not something I want to risk. Out goes the existing set.

Final Assembly of the 496 and I am having some second thoughts on the selected timing chain. Purchased the "best" version of the 440Source timing chain set which advertises as "one of best on market, regardless of price" and is US made billet gears (although no mention of chain). Price reflects...

Why Silver Sport over American Powertrain?

Is the cost between the 833 and Tremec relatively close? I have the need to upgrade the 23 spline due to power, and if I stuck with Mopar, I am estimating the following costs- your opinion/thoughts appreciated - clutch( Dual Disc $785), bellhousing ($500), flywheel (11" $400), hyd TO( $650). Add...

I spoke w American Powertrain today and they confirmed this. On a 4 speed car, cover the existing hole, add new one. Question- is the “off set” of the linkage above or below tunnel? No console in my car so I’m wondering how this would look. Debating what to do for an upgrade of a 23 spline.

Just went .60 over on my 67 383 with no issues found( still in assembly). Piston at deck height and with heads ordered, CR is estimate at 10.4

What are build details? I’m halfway through the short block but awaiting parts..

Diesel- mind sharing specs of your build- I am putting together the same build from 440 Source this Spring. Thanks

The 440 source heads are my first choice but they have no ETA for availability. Could be months, even more. The TF has an estimated date; which is really the driving factor for its selection- finding something in stock! ( or hopefully by Spring). Appreciate the details on the cam- I’ll compare...

Original 383 from 67 Charger that has been 30 over previously. Only option is to go 60 over. First question is the block sufficient (non HP)? For heads, I’d like to see if the TF 240 would work but the bore is slightly off as block end up at 4.31and TF recommends 4.32. Concern here? With the .60...
