440 into '76 Duster...

Pana.Mopar said

I really want to do the 440 conversion into my '76 Duster.. The car is currently power steer and power brakes... I know that the Schumacher header, engine mount and torque strap kit is the way to go.. I take it I will have to relocate my brake booster.. Will the headers clear the power steering box?

I just finished making all of the neccesary notches and header clearances. You have to notch the K member for oil pump clearance. You have to grind some additional material off of the power steering gearbox near the hose connnections. You have to grind some material off of a boss located on the driver's side of the block. I saw a 383 in a Duster and it cleared the power brake booster. That's why he put a 383 in it. I hope this helps. You can also download all of the installation instructions at Shumacher website.:read2:
