We are putting a manual gear box from a B body into a 74 Duster. Problem is that the pitman arm off the power steering box wont fit the splines on the manual box. Its too big, the arm just spins on the shaft. I am told that the arm that we need is from 73 - 76 A body. The early ones dont work...

It sounds bad, but its not. LOL, a few months ago I bought a great Schumacher set up from one of the guys here in FABO. I got the mounts for putting a 440 into a 67 Dart. Great shape too. Anyway, I didnt get the diagram for notching the frame for the oil pump. Does anyone have that diagram or...

When my son and I opened up his 70 350HP 440 it had a set of very thin head gaskets on it. There didnt seem to be any problems at all with them when we opened it. They were stock for sure, but are they still avaiable and good? I know that they will help to raise the compression and the newer...

My son bought a 70 440 350HP a few weeks ago and got it yesterday. It was in a 70 300 and I actually remember the car driving around in Taylor TX years ago. It was parked in 92 and never driven from that time. Well we took apart today and all I could say with every part that we took our...

Hey guys, as every one knows by now we are building a 440 dart. I have seen a few times where the talk has said that their tires hit the fenderwell headers witha big block. What size wheels and tires are best to avoid this problem? I told him today maybe going with a 14 inch front and maybe...

I am still new to this wonderful site. I have ask a few questions and had al of them answered fast and with good information. I have even had insight on what radiator to use in a 67 /6 dart to a 440 auto. The car will be used in Texas by a 21 year old. The engine wont be built too much...

My son and I have bought a 1970 440 out of a NON-hurst car. Its a good running engine for $450 with everything attatched still, including the 727.

I have read in Mopar mag that with a Shumacher kit the S/6 could be pulled and changed to the 440 without changing the engine wiring harness. Is that true? I have also read here in this site that the harness has to be changed with a Year One set up. We are getting confused a little. That might...

Hello all, my son is building a 440 67 dart. He has read about the Shumacer kit and it said that he cant use power steering in this swap. The question is... can he just take out the power steering pump and then take off the hose conection mount on the gear box? That will make it manual wont it...
