66 Dart GT HT Whatsitgonnabe?
Alright. Todays haul.
Got this from a guy in New Jersey which is perfect. He’s got like 20 minutes to the port terminal and has his own box truck so shipping is zero. He put a pallet in the back, loaded up the stuff and boxed it in right there in the back of the truck.
It’s a ‘76 440 block (stamped T440) which looks really nice. No ridges, std bore, new freeze plugs and full groove bearings. Obviously rebuilt. Either it’s a great score (I think I paid $250 for it) or it’s been discarded because it’s junk. We’ll see, I guess.
Then there’s a disassembled 4-speed. Looks like it has a home made shifter mounting plate. Haven’t looked it over but seems to be complete-ish at least.
Came with a Z-bar.
The heads are 3 pairs of 906 and one rusty pair of 452’s with valves and springs. The retainers are a little funny. The intake valves have offset retainers and what looks like dual springs.
Not in the pics is a set of A-body pedals. We’ll see if I ever do a 4-speed conversion but at least now I have most of what I’ll need (I have a bell housing coming soon).
