    Finally got the TF 270 heads on, the hughes 1.6 rockers on, and the pushrods in. Cam is comp hydraulic flat .545 241/247 (.581 with the 1.6 rockers) and comp lifters. Comp calling for .045 lifter preload. Seems like an awful lot of preload. Thinking the trick is to keep the inner plunger off...

    Carburetor suggestions - 625 or 750?

    Finally got the 440 back together on my '74 triple black Charger. It fired right up. Carb leaks pretty badly - I need to break in the cam but don't want to use the TQ with the leaks. It looks like it's been "rebuilt" at some pint with lots of orange RTV. I think that carb goes into the...

    My 1974 Charger has a heap of "crap", err I mean parts in a box for the front of the motor. They were in the process of installing an underdrive aluminum pulley set. So I'm looking for a schematic of how this stuff goes together and a source for the missing stuff. My car is A/C and P/S. I...
