I'm putting together a 440 that came with a cast crank. I have a steel crank that is fresh from the machine shop. My question is, can I use the steel crank in place of the factory cast crank? That would save me money from getting the cast crank turned.

I have Crane adjustable rockers. Do I need to turn them 1,1/2?

Anybody have a trick to remove and replace a valve spring still on the engine. It's a 440.

I have a 1968 318. I've heard they are a great block to build. Looking for inexpensive suggestions to make good horsepower. Thanks....

So i can't pull my cam out! I removed the oil pump gear and of course the lifters. The cam will only move about a half an inch and stop. What did I forget?

My engine has zero deck pistons and 516 heads. Could someone give me a close guess what my compression would be. Hope to run 91 octane!

What numbers should be on Max Wedge heads?

I have 2295 TRW pistons "11.5 to 1 I think" in my 30 over 440. I'm putting aluminum heads on it and would like to put a thick head gasket on it to lower the compression a little. How thick should I go for pump gas and where should I buy them at? Thanks.

Low compression RV engine. Auto and 2.90 rear gear. 67 Belvedere street car. Has an unknown aftermarket cam in it now. Has an awesome lope! But smells gas'y no matter what I do to stop it. Vacuum, floats, timing. Speaking of vacuum. It only has 7lbs. I think the cam is completely wrong for this...

Any reason to NOT use this 1978 block With the extra cooling holes?

Just got the heads back from the machine shop. Everything check out perfect. Spring pressure right on. Valves seats sealed perfect. Valve guides good. Bolt holes good. Head surface flat. FYI.

I bought a used 440 from a motor home. Just got it started and it has a tick on the passenger side. 60lbs oil pressure. Rockers have fresh oil. My question is. I can push on the rockers that don't have pressure and they move about an 1/8 to a 1/4 inch toward the lifter. Maybe more if I was to...

I picked up a used sure grip. After I took it apart I found a spring broke and some galling where the metal grabs. Can this be saved?

Who knows of a good deal on a big blower and blower pistons? I think my " X " would look fantastic without a hood! Probably need bigger brakes too.

I found a used 489 posi on craigslist. What do I need to look for to make sure its good to go? I know to look at the ring and pinon gears for wear. Thanks.

What's everybody using to insulate there fuel lines from the heat?

Can I use a externally balanced converter with a internally balanced crank? Yes I know, it belongs with a cast crank.

I have a built up big block, but don't know what's inside. Can I do compression test to tell what octane I should use?

I have a 440/727 in my 1967 Belvedere. When I change to a 426 Hemi, will I need to change the K member or motor mounts? Are headers all I'll need?

How much would it cost to build my own Hemi? Other than the machine work I have built engines before. Just not a Hemi. I just want a reliable street engine that will look good under my hood. Don't want a gen 1 or a new Hemi. Gen II, 426 and up.:eusa_think:
