It's always your choice, but you see very few 273 cars, seems the 383 cars are fairly common. I am biased, I would build the 273. Then AC and PS are a breeze!

Hey, not to get in the middle of the mud slinging but I have a question. When do you read the peak on a ramp? By that I mean, right when it reaches the peak, when it's at the peak or right when the indicator starts back down. On my experience there seems to be a few degrees when the lifter hits...

It does mean anything for this conversation, but when the NHRA was using different weights for different CU combinations in Pro Stock, many Hemi racers used 383 engines with HEMI heads. This way they could have smaller engines, lighter car weight and these cars FLEW!

The factory did it for a reason. This is a 67 GTS and power steering was never offered, but maybe planned?

Later model 440 engines use a water pump housing with flipped outlet side. So you can use another housing to match rad locations.

Like they said, if you have a partial match, the last numbers I would say you have the correct engine. I think New Yorkers used that front mount.

The Picture pages (23-182 184) says Jan 68, supersedes Jan 67. The Part Number pages (23-183 185) says Jan 68, supersedes May 67. Ok so these are later additions to the parts books and they updated with the 383 emblems. But they omitted the GTS emblems references.

No, it's on a Dart Pictured page. Not Barracuda, Coronet, etc, etc, etc.

Understood. But why is a 383 emblem listed in a parts breakdown for a 67 Dart GT?

I will look in the morning. I was thinking about selling the books, haven't looked at them in 10 years. I have a 67 and 69.

I was looking in my 67 Parts book today and found this. I think it's very interesting based on what we think we know about 67 Big Block Darts. So as you can see in the following pictures, first one is the Hardtop second is the Convertible. REF 2 Lists a 383 4 Barrel Emblem. Below there is a...

Just a thought, what about a solid drivers side mount and everything else new rubber mounts. Fore and Aft mount strap and be done with it. I would really think that would take care of movement and still have so vibration isolation.

Well don't have the car any more, but I do have a 67 Magnum motor from a 67 Coronet RT. I have had a few sets over the years, but somehow I ended up with the worst looking set.

I agree, they do look nice! Better than what was new back then. When I said correct I mean OEM, not a china knockoff or a aftermarket cover. Let me check with my local guys, they go south of the border and do stuff.

Is there a source for the correct chrome valve covers? I would like to replace the worn chrome on mine, or have them plated. Thanks in advance.

I don't know if they all were sold my Mr. Norm. The Bee leaver that Ron Mancini drove and the GTS that Landy had were both M code Darts. Reggie Jackson had one in his collection before one of his storage buildings burnt down.

Would anyone be interested in an original Chrysler Parts Tag for a BB Air Cleaner Lid? I have one I found in my stuff. Might be a item great for that ultimate collector. Give me a shout.

here is what you are looking for. drivers side is the difference. notice rear ear is milled off.

Is that a complement? As if I could have a good thought? LOL

Man I looked at one and they are EXPENSIVE! Super neat, but I think at the Nats you can buy a windowed junk block for the same amount!

Go into the big block a section of the forums and you will see a post for a 440 cuda just like you want to do. It will work, just real close. Look for CUUDAK he had a cuda with that combination. I plan to do the same thing. I think with some K member shims, moving motor mounts around a little...

thanks cudaspaz! she has been a lot of fun! she has 3 different lives so far! Started as a 273 2 bbl column auto for 90K miles, then a 440 race car for a couple of years, then a 13 sec slant six car and now a street sleeper with a 360 that looks like a 273 commando with a 4 speed! I will do a...

nqkwj thanks for the complements on my notch. she is a 20 footer right now, still wearing some of the original paint. I am doing her after the Lancer. Thanks Again. Your's looks great!

Anyone know what the casting number would be for 1967 383 connecting rods? I am trying to identify some parts and my direct connection engine book says the rod for a 440 and a 383 are different! NO DUH. But what is the casting number? Any help is appreciated! Thanks

I ran a 440 in my 67 Coupe for a couple of years. 67 440 with a TM7, Big Headers, stock insides. 4 speed with a 4.88 Dana. Had a 6 point cage, frame connectors, super stock 002/003 springs. Fiberglass hood and trunk lid. 13X32X15 Goodyears. Ran 11.50's all day long. Motor was STOCK.
