Engine Swap Questions

Hello Jim,

You have provided me with insight on this project since the start.........about 4 years ago. Thank you for that.

After looking at it, I think I will pull the engine and trans together. It will take a bit longer in some ways, but I think I have a plan.

If I work at home, I have to work in the dirt and gravel by myself. But it is at home.

If I tow it to work, I can use the cement and their are some buddies there that can give me a hand. But I don't the convenience of working at home.

The plan is this I think. I'll pull everything I can at home, and then load my long block on my truck and take it to work.

Cement is nice and help is appreciated.

The BH bolts and all that are nasty tight. The rest of the engine is ok, but the firewall area is real tight.

Maybe I should start a thread on this car. I have taken to calling the car, "I can't". As in I can't sell it, drive it, or do much with it. The engine is bad-suspected flat cam. So I am checking over a 440 I got this spring and basically swapping in a cammed stocker. I want to drive this car......and make it into the "I can" Dart. I can make my nieces scream when I give it the throttle. I can drive it to work a few days a week etc.

Enough of that. The engine is calling me.

I love this place.

Thank you, ROB
