Randy over at logestein racing built my 440. He does really good clean work and I will definitely be going back. Sometimes it takes a while for a call back but worth the wait. I would keep calling

Thanks for the info guys! A coworker hooked me up with loge stein racing in clayton. Anyone used them before? Their Facebook shows their race cars and shop space. Looks legit

Thanks again for the input. I filed the ruins to the kb spec fuss came with shipping. I'm talking with a company near me called loge stein racing. Mopar guys. I figured while I had it back apart for balancing I might as well opt for a steel crank and internal balance.

**** me right? Thanks for all the feed back..except for that lumberjack talking about swinging hammers. Since I'll be bringing it in for a balance...anything else I should know or have done while it's apart?

I know the KB pistons are a bit lighter but I figured coming from the factory they would all be close in weight. So if the rod weight didn't change and the pistons all weigh the same that would make the weight across each rod/piston drop the same? Does having a lighter rod/piston throw anything...

Building up a 78 440 for a bit over 500 horse. I'm putting the short block together and I'm looking at the clevite "H" series bearings. Just curious with other people experience using them or if there are better bearings available. Also...could I get some recommendations on good pistons for...

I knew brakes and suspension had to be upgraded...already have the 8 3/4 rear...looking for a sure grip to install. Thanks for the info on the mounts. Basically the whole car is stock and needs rebuilding. Motor and tranny first then brakes and suspension. Any recommendations on brake...

would you recommend the torque straps and tranny mounts as well? I'm not familiar with how much vibration these 440s dish out

Will I have to change the k frame as well? Or just different motor mounts?

i'm about to buy a 1977 440 w/727 trans. its from a van and has 47k on it. i've been reading that there are subtle differences on these engines, mainly the heads, intake, and water pump can be different. also i noticed on the rear of the engine...bolted to the trans bolts there is a metal plate...
