Hi all, I have a 225 super slant 6 block and manifold. We bought a spare engine a few years ago and decided to use that instead of rebuilding this one. We simply don't have the time to do what we'd like to do with it. Initially pulled for bad head gasket. Came out of a 78 volare. Pickup only...

Hey all, I have a shifter that I'm not sure what it's out of. There are no numbers on it. After research, I THINK it could be a 7036, but I have no way to be sure. This used to be a bayonet type shifter but I drilled it to fit a bolt-in application. I've attached a picture of the shifter I...

Hey all, I'm looking for a 71-74 A-body non-console, 4spd floor shifter lever in good shape. Let me know what you have and please post a pic. Thanks, Karl G.

Hi all, back again with some transmission woes. Got my 4-speed reinstalled and now it has a different problem. In 1st, 2nd, and 3rd there is a very loud noise on deceleration. The noise immediately stops if I put the clutch pedal down or hit the gas (even if just a little bit). The noise is...

Hey all, I have a general question with AC. That is, does the AC system draw power even when not engaged? I know it draws power when it's turned on, but I'm wondering if simply having the pulley drag on the engine would cause more than a 1-2hp loss. I'm considering adding AC to my Dakota but...

Hey everyone, another transmission question. I bought a rebuilt a833. All the forward gears shift fine and go in without any issue, and the car drives fine. However, third gear makes a lot more noise than any of the other gears. First and second are quiet, no noise at all. Third makes a ton...

Hey guys, I'm having a weird issue I need help with. I have a hurst compeititon plus shifter that I bought a Hurst pit pack for because it needed bushings and clips....I got the pit pack and go to install it only to find out the bushings don't fit the shifter arms! The shifter arm diameter is...

Hi all, I had a B/E A230 trans with a 4.34 retainer and it fit in my bell perfectly. However, I am swapping in a B/E A833 and the retainer on that is roughly 4.7 (I couldn't measure either of these perfectly because the input shaft got in the way, but the A833 is definitely a little bigger than...

Hi there, I'm looking to buy an A-body shifter setup with a 4-speed shifter mech, linkage rods, and the metal squares that go on the tranny. Bushings and clips aren't necessary but preferrable. Also looking for a new/freshly rebuilt A833 for a B/E body (I know this is an A body site but...

I'm looking to potentially upgrade to a 4speed but it depends how much I have to spend on the linkage, tabs and shifter for it. What do you guys have? I have a hurst handle I could use, it's one of the slip-in style ones I think. It doesn't have the two bolts I see the other style have on the...

I've been having some woes with my tranny lately. It's hard to get into second gear at almost any RPM. If I'm sitting in the driveway it'll row through the gears no problem. Usually, if I'm just cruising around 2nd will only give me a little bit of trouble. If I'm hitting it hard (most of the...

Hi there, Some of you may know me for my dakota build. It's been done, it's been driving relatively good. Of course there have been some issues, and this is the last one I'm hoping to accomplish this weekend. The shifter I have is very worn out and sloppy. It's a stock setup from an old A-body...

Hi, I'm looking for a 23 spline, non OD a833 4-speed transmission. Having a shifter and linkage would be preferred but is not necessary. Please post price and an internal pic if possible. Depending on location I may be able to pick it up myself. I also have an A230 transmission in great shape...

I have recently rebuilt my 318 after it spun a bearing. It is a highly modified engine meant for street/strip use. It will not start. We have spark, compression and fuel to the carburetor. It cranks and cranks but no start. Once in a while it will cough, but it's intermittent. I have put the...

I spun a bearing in my motor and I'm redoing it this weekend. I don't have a book on me, and I can't find the clearances online for the life of me. Could somebody help me out and let me know what the rod and main bearing clearances are for a Magnum 318? Thanks in advance, Karl G.

I need the dust/inspection cover for a small block bell housing from a manual car. I don't know the numbers stamped on the housing, as I already have it installed. From bolt to bolt on the far ends measure about 16 inches. Please let me know what you have. Thanks, Karl G.

I need a the flywheel cover for an a230 transmission. If you have one please let me know. Thanks.

I'm looking for a shifter and linkage to a A230 transmission. I need ALL of the linkage (I don't really care how it looks). I'm looking at shifters also, but am only interested in shifters that are in exceptional condition. Let me know what you have! Thanks.

Hi, I have a 95 dakota I'm planning on making a street rod out of. I need a cast crank, and was wondering if I would be able to put a 340 crank inside of a 318 block. Is this possible? Thanks. (I know I will need a cast crank because the truck will be putting out over 800hp) EDIT: I meant...
