What YMM did it come off of?

Small block Chrysler Mopar timing chain cover, 1970 and later LA Block. Clean. Comes with alternator bracket (non-AC) and power steering bracket. Condition is good. Timing grid legible and visible. Bolt holes are well threaded. Comes with fasteners pictured. All it needs is a wipe down with...

Cool Article. Interesting that our site started out as a home page.

Agree with Edebrock 650 AVS 2 for 360 V8 (my Edelbrock 800 is Made in USA. Big plus) Agree. That Edelbrock 1481 bracket is a must with an Edelbrock Carb. Still need Chrysler Throttle cable kickdown linkage adapter to install throttle cable and kickdown on 1481. 1481 and Chrysler adapter pictured...

Mickey Thompson small block valve covers, aluminum. They are straight and in excellent condition. I bought them to replace the valve covers on a 318 V8. I later removed the 318 V-8 from my 1966 Coronet and am installing a 440. I’m basically selling the valve covers to get my money back out of...

Edelbrock 1406 carburetor, 600 CFM, 2 years old, approximately 500 miles of use on 318 V8 in a 1966 Dodge Coronet. I removed the 318 in order to install a 440. This carburetor is too small for my application, thus the sale. I drove the car before removing the carb and 318. Carburetor performed...

Brown Wire is Start, 12 volts Blue wire is Run. 12 volts to ballast resistor, but then the ballast resistor reduces voltage to the ignition coil primary positive by 3-4 volts. ECU grounds coil and fires coil through grounding ignition coil primary negative. With Electronic Ignition, the...

Looks like your alternator is one of the later square back models. It has 2 fields so they are isolated from ground. Usually the alternator grounds through the engine at the pivot bolt, where the spacer is. I can't give a reason for the bent ground stud, but my opinion is that you do not need...

Remove the bolt and yes, you can hammer the spacer out, if it does not come out by hand

:rofl:

Great job! Who knows? Maybe you'll tackle an engine oil filter or trans pan oil filter next. Agree on previous owner and backward install. Unlikely that any filter would last 51 years.

I have a friend with a 413 (already broken in) and car was sitting for over 20 years. He turned over the engine with the starter, ignition coil wire disconnected, to oil the engine. Previously, he cleaned out the fuel tank and treplaced all fuel hoses. Then started the engine and it ran...

On the wire that got hot, I'd bypass the original connector with a bullet connector like this link...

New Home - CarTitles.com These guys claim to be able to get you a title for $329 in most cases. Sometimes you have to post a bond based on the purchase price. Personally, I avoid cars/trucks without title unless it comes from a state that does not issue titles for vehicles that old. With that...

$650 for port/bowl blend $200 for valve guides $200 for seats to expand exhaust valve size $220 to buy new valves/keepers/retainers Then springs Probably $1500 to do a pair of stock non HP 915 big block heads
