Whats the number stamped on the rear lower left ear?

Not over the counter, that carb was sold out of the Direct Connection catalog at the Chrysler, dodge or Plymouth dealership.

Originally manufactured on a assembly line machine with multiple stations, gang mill, multi drill head and multi tap head. Block goes in one end raw casting and comes out other end fully machined.

Try greasing the cable. Friction is grabbing it and the end/ends that are squared off that drive the cable/speedometer are skipping in their prospective sockets. If that don’t work new cable and drive sockets, as in new Speedo and gear.

Talk to people and price it out. There is a guy that is Florida that goes after seam sealer with tools he made out of forks and knives after its done in the electrolysis tank. He isn’t cheap but he is thorough.

Have it dipped in caustic solution electrolysis tank purpose built for cars. They are out there, do your research. Removes paint, body filler and all rust.

I admire your deep thought that goes into all this. I’m going to have to delve into this post later tonight at the end of my day and try to bring my level of deep thinking to your level(wish me good luck). Vastly interested subject for me. Looking forward to opening the door and “break on...

Brazilian detailing company. And I have heard that they pay stupid prices for cars in Mexico and South America.

Hard to say, I know I like $500 as a price. I’d go there with tools, make sure it turns over a dozen times, pull the valve cover and take a good look with a flashlight. Maybe even pull the oil pan. Lots can happen after 6 years.

VHT high heat paint, follow the directions. You usually can find an old scrap oven on the side of the road if you look hard enough, I know I did, I got 2 of them.

I’m not shy, I spout off plenty(god forgive me). I’m just reading and digesting.

Wow. And Remember that I have boatloads of questions you guys already have answers to.

From what I understand, flow gains doesn’t trump port energy and efficiency. I believe that comes from trying to equalize port speeds throughout all areas of the port and trying to keep speeds around 300 for stockish size ports (with in reason for porting with available meat to port).

I am sooooooo jealous. Hell here I come for coveting my neighbors goods.

Is that painted or vapor blasted?

Wow, that car is a beauty.

If it is an early 340 block AND it was a 4 speed car, it may have a rare wilder cam than the 68 4 speed cam.

You need a better picture of the casting date.

My first problem would be where do I keep it. If I had room, this would be coming home with me.

Not so, a lot of companies have left China for Mexico. Masterlock has. Abbvie also pulled their diagnostic labs as well. There are more. The Chinese are thieves and the word is out. They reverse engineer product and counterfeit for profit. If it is intellectual property, you are screwed. You...

Deepest sympathy to you and yours. I know what a difficult time this can be as my dad just passed last Sunday at 96.

Welcome to our family.

My 79 D100 came with an 8 1/4.

That I’m not sure of and I don’t know how DLC would wear on DLC coatings.

Diamond like coating. Stupid hard and wear resistant and slipperier than goose ****.

Any of the cam manufactures that offer DLC coated lifters. Or go to ricks mopars on eBay, he has small block lifters for $108 and have them coated. Any tool and die supply house will know where to have them coated.

Dude needs to start a go fund me page. There’s a lot of love for him out there. Hate to see him sell off his whole life’s work.

Thanks

Rock auto has/had them last time I looked and they were much less $ if I remember correctly.

Where did you get the plans or ideas to build this bench?
