Ok, back at the ranch !
1975 440 truck block .
At the time . All i could find was a cast crank 440 truck block that was in good enough condition that i did not have to bore or sleeve !
So after a good hot tank & cleaning , hone job etc. Forged piston, float pins. New rings, bearings, 488/252 purple cam i believe. Double roller timing chain. High volume oil pump. 1967 - 915 CC heads all done up new!
New valves, seals, double springs , stock rockers. Push rods. etc. etc.etc.
Let see, am i leaving anything out ?
Damn I wanted a forged steel crank , but could not find one at the time . So i went with what i had !
Ok then, 10.5 Bell housing, flywheel , McLeod clutch/PP/TO bearing , 833 4speed. I have 3 of them so i did not mind cutting the tip off the input shaft . As we all know, most cast crank later model 440 are auto. Or at least this one was ! And don't have deep pilot hole.
Tried many different intakes and dif. shifters
Still not sure yet ?
