    Schumacher headers 440 in 71 Duster

    I bought the conversion mounts and torque strap at the same time as I bought my Headers from the Schumacher guy at Carlisle some 7 years ago. Put it all together and drove it for a year like that. A 440 with Stealth heads and six pack set-up. I really didn't like the sound of the open headers so...

    Cooling

    I went to the parts store and picked up a rad for a 74 dodge 1 ton dually. It dropped right into my 71 demon. Used a shroud that I got from the local chrysler dealer from the restoration parts book. Regular old clutch fan and the car never goes above 180. Dosn`t matter what the day or temp is...

    440?

    I get excited every time I lift the hood of my Demon and see that 440 with a six pack set-up. Nothing beats the feeling of driving an A-body with a big block. The difference in the transmissions is the input shaft and torque converter. Iv'e done the swap a couple of times. I know that the 67 and...

    66 dart 440 rad hoses ?

    I took rough measurements of what I needed for my 440 demon. In the back of the parts books for the hoses is a picture library with lengths, bends and sizes. Both dayco, gates have the diagrams. Took all of 5 minutes to find what I needed. Upper is from a chebby celebribity that needed to have...

    Engine wiring harness /6->440 cid

    Got mine from Evans Wiring. Called and had them make the coil wires longer so I could mount the coil on the inner fender. Everything hooked up as if the engine were original. Good price as well. He has other harnesses . Kenny B

    Thanks for the replies. Mancini's has a set that are 3/16 inch longer but I can't see that working. Probably going to call Dr. Diff first of next week. Kenny B

    Yukon Axles

    Bought a set of Yukon axles for my 71 Demon. Stock housing dimensions and the axles are 28 inches in length. I have the green bearings with 3 inch studs. When I bought the housing it had No axles and I was offered a 4:10 or 3:91 center section. I chose the 4:10 with the clutch type sure-grip...

    Need some help figuring out water pump/alternator solution

    I used the 440 source housing with the inlet on the passenger side. Bought a set of their aluminum pulleys for the pump and crank. Put one of the Denso kits on, also from 440 source. Came with all the brackets and bolted up nice and aligned nice. Runs 180 degrees with no complaints of heating. I...

    smaller master cylinder

    I think someone already replied about turning the bolt around. The Wilwood master comes with a slightly longer pushrod to compensate for the addition of the offset block. Pedal height is the same as before the swap. If I'm not mistaken, the offset block is also manufactured by Wilwood. Only...

    smaller master cylinder

    I used the offset adapter from Mancini's as well as a Wilwood master also bought from Mancini's. Only problem was modifying the brake light switch bracket to put the pushrod on the other side of the pedal assembly. No problems now. Kenny B

    radiator hose dart 440 swap

    I bent a coat hanger in the shape of the hose I needed and then went to my parts store. In the back of the "Gates" catalogue is pictures of all the hoses with measurements. You need to find a patient parts person who isn't having a bad day and go from there. My lower was cut to fit on both ends...

    Griffin Rad fitment issues

    Picked up my Griffen rad a few years ago during my build. After many hours and a few choice words I sold it for a loss. Was at the local auto parts store talking to them about rads. Found out that a 26 inch rad for a 1976 dodge 1 ton dually would fit right into my existing brackets. Opened up...

    Which dual quad set up?

    Did I read this right. A 512 big block with ported heads and a dual quad setup and then trying to get all that to go through a 1 5/8 tri-y header. Good luck. TTI 2 inch is only is only about $150.00 more. I tried the route you are thinking about and ended up selling the tri-y's. No sense trying...

    Master cylinder adapter

    Offset adapter with a wildwood master. 1971 Demon with a 512 six-pack and solid lifters using crane roller rockers. 2 inch TTI's and the Schumacher conversion mounts. Valve covers come off with ease. Got my adapter from Mancini's a while ago. Car also has the wildwood front disc brake swap and...

    440 vs 360 GO!

    My mostly aluminum 440/512 weighs the same or maybe even less than an iron 360. This is also my 3rd big block A-body. 340's are cute but nothing looks better when you open the hood. Use the proper conversion kit and headers and it fits really well.

    differences in K-members

    I believe your set-up uses the biscuit type mounts. My 71 Demon had them and I bought the conversion mounts from Schumacher along with their adjustable torque rod. Motor and tranny slipped right into place after notching the left mount as per schumachers instructions which come with the...

    junkyard 440 approx price?

    One 440/512 lives in the car now. Two complete 440's for cores and or later projects sit in my garage with 4 727 transmissions. Don't really know why I have all this but I got them all at a good price. The most expensive engine I bought was $275.00 and that was for a steel crank engine. The guy...

    TTI headers mini starter clearance

    Switched from shcumacher try-y's to 2 inch TTI's on my 440 Demon. Mini starter fit the try-y's but hit the TTI's. There is a couple of different styles of mini starters. I had the same problem. Bought a Dakota starter which has a shorter armature and bolted right in place. Kenny B

    Big Block Idler and Pitman Arm Trouble

    Just changed the pan in my 440/512 six-pack 71 Demon. I put in a Milodon 90390 pan from Mancini's . I have the 6 K-frame and steering linkage. Center link was close so I used the shims that came with the conversion mounts and raised the engine slightly. This is with the biscuit style mounts...

    Paint shop Jail...Looking forward to release date.

    I have been following this thread for a while now and think back as to "what if". When I started my demon project I needed quarters and door skins. I bought one AMD quarter-panel and two used doors then loaded up everything and trailored my stuff to 3 different body-shops. Couldn't get any type...

    [FOR SALE] Try-Y's

    My apologies. Been crazy busy with life. I checked into shipping into the U.S and with brokerage fees and taxes it is just not feasible to ship. I have a tentative sale but nothing concrete. I will check back on a daily basis. Pictures added.

    6BBL Clearance

    My 512 6 pack fits under the flat hood of 71 demon. I have been tossing around the thought of a scoop but I think I like the sleeper look better.
